Abstract
Cardiotoxicity is a common adverse effect induced by drug chemotherapy. miR-30c has been reported to be involved in the progress of heart diseases. In the present study, miR-30c was used to predict the cardiotoxicity in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients treated with bevacizumab chemotherapy. Eighty NSCLC patients were included in this study. Serum miR-30c levels were detected at pre-chemotherapy, during-chemotherapy (the 2nd, 4th, and 8th week) and 1 month after chemotherapy. miR-30c expression was elevated with the duration of the chemotherapy cycle and decreased 1 month after chemotherapy. The correlation analysis showed that serum miR-30c levels were positively related to cardiotoxicity before chemotherapy and during chemotherapy. ROC curve analysis showed the values of AUC, sensitivity, and specificity for the level of miR-30c alteration (from pre-chemotherapy to during-chemotherapy) were 0.851, 0.720, and 0.860, respectively. Serum miR-30c level is elevated during bevacizumab chemotherapy, which is probably an early detection biomarker for predicting cardiotoxicity in NSCLC patients treated with drug chemotherapy.
