Rosuvastatin for Prevention of Anthracycline-induced Cardiac Dysfunction in Breast Cancer Patients
This study, called "ROSUBREAST", is a multicenter, double-blind, randomized clinical trial evaluating whether rosuvastatin (20 mg daily) can protect the heart in women with breast cancer receiving anthracycline-based chemotherapy. A total of 400 participants will be randomly assigned to receive either rosuvastatin or placebo for 12 months. The main goal is to determine whether rosuvastatin can prevent cancer treatment-related cardiac dysfunction (CTRCD), defined as a significant drop in heart pumping function. The study will also assess changes in cardiac strain, blood biomarkers, symptoms of heart failure, quality of life, and possible side effects.
