Cardiac and skeletal muscle predictors of impaired cardiorespiratory fitness post-anthracycline chemotherapy for breast cancer
2021
Overview
This study aimed to characterize peak exercise cardiac function and thigh muscle fatty infiltration and their relationships with VO
2
peak among anthracycline-treated breast cancer survivors (BCS). BCS who received anthracycline chemotherapy ~ 1 year earlier (n = 16) and matched controls (matched-CON, n = 16) were enrolled. Resting and peak exercise cardiac function, myocardial T
1
mapping (marker of fibrosis), and thigh muscle fat infiltration were assessed by magnetic resonance imaging, and VO
2
peak by cycle test. Compared to matched-CON, BCS had lower peak SV (64 ± 9 vs 57 ± 10 mL/m
2
, p = 0.038), GLS (− 30.4 ± 2.2 vs − 28.0 ± 2.5%, p = 0.008), and arteriovenous oxygen difference (16.4 ± 3.6 vs 15.2 ± 3.9 mL/100 mL, p = 0.054). Mediation analysis showed: (1) greater myocardial T
1
time (fibrosis) is inversely related to cardiac output and end-systolic volume exercise reserve; (2) greater thigh muscle fatty infiltration is inversely related to arteriovenous oxygen difference; both of which negatively influence VO
2
peak. Peak SV (R
2
= 65%) and thigh muscle fat fraction (R
2
= 68%) were similarly strong independent predictors of VO
2
peak in BCS and matched-CON combined. Post-anthracyclines, myocardial fibrosis is associated with impaired cardiac reserve, and thigh muscle fatty infiltration is associated with impaired oxygen extraction, which both contribute to VO
2
peak.
