Risk prediction model for heart failure and cardiomyopathy after adjuvant trastuzumab therapy for breast cancer.
The investigators sought to develop a clinical risk score that identifies older women with breast cancer who are at higher risk of heart failure or cardiomyopathy after trastuzumab. That found that a 7-factor risk score was able to stratify 3-year risk of heart failure/cardiomyopathy after trastuzumab between the lowest and highest risk groups by more than 2-fold in a Medicare population.
