Cardiovascular (CV) imaging is an important tool in baseline risk assessment and detection of CV disease in oncology patients receiving cardiotoxic cancer therapies. This position statement examines the role of echocardiography, cardiac magnetic resonance, nuclear cardiac imaging and computed tomography in the management of cancer patients. The Imaging and Cardio-Oncology Study Groups of the Heart Failure Association (HFA) of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) in collaboration with the European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging (EACVI) and the Cardio-Oncology Council of the ESC have evaluated the current evidence for the value of modern CV imaging in the cardio-oncology field. The most relevant echocardiographic parameters, including global longitudinal strain and three-dimensional ejection fraction, are proposed. The protocol for baseline pre-treatment evaluation and specific surveillance algorithms or pathways for anthracycline chemotherapy, HER2-targeted therapies such as trastuzumab, vascular endothelial growth factor tyrosine kinase inhibitors, BCr-Abl tyrosine kinase inhibitors, proteasome inhibitors and immune checkpoint inhibitors are presented. The indications for CV imaging after completion of oncology treatment are considered. The typical consequences of radiation therapy and the possibility of their identification in the long term are also summarized. Special populations are discussed including female survivors planning pregnancy, patients with carcinoid disease, patients with cardiac tumours and patients with right heart failure. Future directions and ongoing CV imaging research in cardio-oncology are discussed.

Serum biomarkers are an important tool in the baseline risk assessment and diagnosis of cardiovascular disease in cancer patients receiving cardiotoxic cancer treatments. Increases in cardiac biomarkers including cardiac troponin and natriuretic peptides can be used to guide initiation of cardioprotective treatments for cancer patients during treatment and to monitor the response to cardioprotective treatments, and they also offer prognostic value. This position statement examines the role of cardiac biomarkers in the management of cancer patients. The Cardio-Oncology Study Group of the Heart Failure Association (HFA) of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) in collaboration with the Cardio-Oncology Council of the ESC have evaluated the current evidence for the role of cardiovascular biomarkers in cancer patients before, during and after cardiotoxic cancer therapies. The characteristics of the main two biomarkers troponin and natriuretic peptides are discussed, the link to the mechanisms of cardiovascular toxicity, and the evidence for their clinical use in surveillance during and after anthracycline chemotherapy, trastuzumab and HER2-targeted therapies, vascular endothelial growth factor inhibitors, proteasome inhibitors, immune checkpoint inhibitors, cyclophosphamide and radiotherapy. Novel surveillance clinical pathways integrating cardiac biomarkers for cancer patients receiving anthracycline chemotherapy or trastuzumab biomarkers are presented and future direction in cardio-oncology biomarker research is discussed.

Dual-specificity phosphatase 6 (DUSP6) is a key negative feedback regulator of the member of the RAS-ERK MAPK signaling pathway that is associated with cellular proliferation and differentiation. Deterioration of DUSP6 expression could therefore result in deregulated growth activity. We have previously discovered ACA-28, a novel anti-cancer compound with a unique property to stimulate ERK phosphorylation and induce apoptosis in ERK-active melanoma cells. However, the mechanism of cancer cell-specific-apoptosis by ACA-28 remains obscure. Here, we investigated the involvement of DUSP6 in the mechanisms of the ACA-28-mediated apoptosis by using the NIH/3T3 cells overexpressing HER2/ErbB2 (A4-15 cells), as A4-15 exhibited higher ERK phosphorylation and are more susceptible to ACA-28 than NIH/3T3. We showed that A4-15 exhibited high DUSP6 protein levels, which require ERK activation. Notably, the silencing of the DUDSP6 gene by siRNA inhibited proliferation and induced apoptosis in A4-15, but not in NIH/3T3, indicating that A4-15 requires high DUSP6 expression for growth. Importantly, ACA-28 preferentially downregulated the DUSP6 protein and proliferation in A4-15 via the proteasome, whilst it stimulated ERK phosphorylation. Collectively, the upregulation of DUSP6 may exert a growth-promoting role in cancer cells overexpressing HER2. DUSP6 downregulation in ERK-active cancer cells might have the potential as a novel cancer measure.
