Evidence regarding the dose-related impact of doxorubicin on subsequent cardiovascular
diseases (CVDs) in Asian patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) without
preexisting CVDs is lacking. From a territory-wide electronic database in Hong Kong, we
identified adults who were diagnosed with DLBCL and treated with chemotherapy between
2000 and 2018. We evaluated the patients for incident CVDs (including ischemic heart
disease, heart failure, and cardiomyopathy). We evaluated the cause-specific cumulative
incidence (csCI) of CVD with levels of doxorubicin exposure by using flexible parametric
competing risk analysis and adjusting for demographics, comorbidities, therapeutic
exposure, cardiovascular risk factors, and lifestyle factors. Controls were age- and sexmatched to DLBCL patients. We analyzed 2600 patients and 13 000 controls. The adjusted
cause-specific hazard ratio (HR) for CVD in patients treated with .500 mg doxorubicin
compared with non-doxorubicin regimens was 2.65 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.23-5.74;
P 5 .013). The 5-, 10-, and 15-year csCIs were 8.2%, 11.3%, and 12.8% in patients vs 3.1%,
4.4%, and 5.2% in controls, respectively. Hypertension (HR, 6.20; 95% CI, 0.79-48.44; P 5
.082) and use of aspirin/angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor/beta-blocker at baseline
(HR, 2.13-4.63; P , .001 to .002) might confer a higher risk of subsequent CVDs. In this Hong
Kong population-based study, doxorubicin exposure (absolute dose .500 mg), together with
hypertension or baseline use of medication for cardiovascular risk factors, was found to be
associated with an increase in csCIs of CVDs. Tailoring therapeutic strategies to underlying
CVD risk factors and risk-adapted monitoring and follow-up of susceptible DLBCL patients
are advisable.
