  • Predictive value of soluble ST-2 in left ventricular function and structural changes in breast cancer patients receiving doxorubicin chemotherapy

    ObjectiveTo evaluate whether soluble carcinogenesis inhibitor 2 (ST-2) level can be used as indicators for predicting left ventricular dysfunction by detecting sST-2 and other cardiac function indexes in patients with breast cancer who receiving doxorubicin chemotherapy.MethodsA retrospective study of 90 breast cancer patients who received doxorubicin (pyrubicin) chemotherapy in the Department of Breast Surgery, The Fifth Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from September 2016 to June 2018 was performed. Peripheral venous blood samples were collected before chemotherapy and one year after receiving doxorubicin chemotherapy, to detect sST-2 level and cardiac function indexes, and echocardiography was performed at the same time.ResultsCompared with pre-chemotherapy, sST-2, left ventricular end-systolic volume (LVESV), left ventricular end diastolic volume (LVEDV), left ventricular systolic diameter (LVESD), left ventricular diastolic internal diameter (LVEDD), and E/e' value increased at one year after chemotherapy, while left ventricular eject fraction (LVEF) decreased, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). There was a negative correlation between the level of sST-2 and LVEF (r=–0.618, P<0.05). The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) showed that the 11.9 ng/mL of sST-2 concentration was the best threshold to predict left ventricular dysfunction, and the sensitivity and specificity were 90.6% and 69.2%, respectively, the area under the ROC curve was 0.836 (P<0.05).ConclusionsST-2 has a certain diagnostic value for predicting left ventricular function and structural changes in breast cancer patients who receiving doxorubicin chemotherapy.
