My ESC News 15 July 2026 - A Weekly Update of ESC Events & Resources   European Heart Journal: Cardiac remodelling and dysfunction in cancer patients receiving cardiotoxic therapies: proteomic and metabolomic profiling   Proteomic and metabolomic profiling following the use of cardiotoxic drugs appear to be interesting and clinically useful. In their study (n= 547 breast cancer participants treated with cardiotoxic drugs), Bonnie Ky et al. demonstrated that 203 unique proteins and 16 unique metabolites were significantly associated with measures of cardiac structure and function in contemporary and lagged analyses. These findings also identified potential new biomarkers of cardiotoxicity. In this light, the possibility of individualising cardiotoxic treatment by increasing its efficacy and safety is quite realistic.   Read the article Cardiovascular Science ESC journals - recent articles   Enjoy free access today to: European Heart Journal: Great debate: medical treatment of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction will rely on four foundational drugs.
