New cancer drugs may harm hearts – study aims to find Who's at risk
NCT ID NCT07174141
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study follows 100 people taking newer BTK inhibitor drugs (acalabrutinib or zanubrutinib) for blood cancers like leukemia or lymphoma. Researchers want to see how often these drugs cause high blood pressure or heart rhythm problems, and find early warning signs. Participants will have eye exams and blood tests over one year to track these risks.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- acalabrutinib, zanubrutinib
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could help doctors identify which patients are most at risk for heart problems from these newer cancer drugs, leading to better monitoring and care.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, single-center observational study, not a treatment trial. It may not find clear risk factors, and results may not apply to all patients.
