Summary

This study looks at whether a tailored prevention plan can stop coronary artery disease in people who had cancer treatment (chemotherapy or radiation) more than 5 years ago. About 748 survivors aged 40-70 will get heart risk checks, including CT scans, and those at higher risk will receive statins or other treatments. The goal is to catch and prevent heart disease early in this vulnerable group.
