Cardio-oncology is an emerging interdisciplinary field concerned with cancer treatment-related cardiovascular toxicities (CTR-CVT) and concomitant diseases (CVD) in patients cancer. Inflammation immune system dysregulation are common features of tumors disease (CVD). In addition to the mutual exacerbating effect through inflammation, tumor treatments, including immunotherapy, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, targeted may induce inflammatory reactions leading damage. Cancer immunotherapy currently a new method treatment. Immunotherapeutic agents, such as checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T), mRNA vaccines, etc., can anti-tumor effects by enhancing host response eliminate cells. They have achieved remarkable therapeutic efficacy clinical settings but lead many immune-related adverse events (irAEs), especially CTR-CVT. Establishing specific evaluation, diagnostic, monitoring criteria (e.g., biomarkers) for both anti-inflammatory therapy-related toxicity vital guide practice. This article explores role inflammation cardiology, unravels underlying mechanisms, provides improved methods treating CTR-CVT cardio-oncology.
