What this Trial Is About
In Ireland, over 3,000 patients are diagnosed with breast cancer annually, and 1 in 9 Irish women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime. There is evidence that female breast cancer survivors are more likely to die of cardiovascular disease than their age-matched counterparts. This research is focused on evaluating pathways for identifying, managing, and overcoming side effects of cancer therapies that can negatively impact quality-of-life and overall outcomes for women during and after cancer treatment. The Cardio-oncology research team at GUH plan to capitalize on their expertise in both cancer care and cardiology to develop a care pathway for cancer patients who are at increased risk of developing heart disease.
