Summary

This study tests whether two types of diabetes medications—SGLT2 inhibitors and DPP-4 inhibitors—can prevent heart damage caused by the chemotherapy drug doxorubicin in women with breast cancer. About 150 Egyptian women will be randomly assigned to receive one of the drugs or standard care alongside their chemo. The goal is to see if these drugs help keep the heart pumping strongly and reduce the risk of heart failure.
