This trial looks at strategies to help prevent heart and blood-vessel problems in people over 65 who have certain cancers. It may help by monitoring and treating heart risks early to lower the chance of future cardiovascular events.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be older than 65
- You need an expected survival of more than 1 year
- You must have one of these cancers: colon cancer, breast cancer, lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, chronic myeloid leukemia, or myeloma

- You may not be in another study if it would interfere with the trial’s follow-up schedule
- You should not have had cancer treatments before that can harm the heart

This feasibility study looks at how to support decision-making about preventing heart problems in adults after a cancer diagnosis. It may help by making it easier to assess cardiovascular risk and start appropriate heart-protection planning earlier.
This trial uses a special scoring system (ML Score) to predict if you might develop heart problems while receiving anthracycline chemotherapy or HER2-targeted therapies. It helps doctors decide on the best heart monitoring plan before starting treatment.
This study is a “registry,” meaning it collects health information from adults who are getting a new heart (cardio) evaluation related to cancer. It helps doctors better understand heart risks and care needs for different cancer types and treatments.
This trial tests a structured lifestyle and exercise change program for young people who finished cancer treatment and have signs of early heart weakness. The goal is to improve heart health and lower the chance of heart failure later.
This trial tests a rehabilitation program designed to help people at high risk of heart problems from cancer treatment. You would do exercises and have check-ups, either at the hospital or at home.
This trial tests whether a personalized, risk-based heart care plan can help prevent heart failure in people who had certain cancer treatments. It focuses on monitoring and guiding treatment, using heart ultrasound results and other health factors.
