Cardiac MRI for Assessment of Cardiac Structure and Function Following Doxorubicin Based Chemotherapy for Newly Diagnosed Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma or Hodgkin's Lymphoma
OBJECTIVES:
- To determine whether early myocardial structural and functional changes can be detected
using cardiac MRI in patients with newly diagnosed non-Hodgkin lymphoma or Hodgkin
lymphoma receiving doxorubicin hydrochloride-based chemotherapy.
OUTLINE: Patients undergo cardiac MRI with gadolinium contrast prior to initiation of
doxorubicin hydrochloride-based chemotherapy and 3 months after completion of six courses of
chemotherapy for non-Hodgkin lymphoma and twelve courses of chemotherapy for Hodgkin
lymphoma.
Interventional
Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment, Masking: Single Blind (Investigator), Primary Purpose: Diagnostic
Change in myocardial function and structure
cMRI will be done prior to induction of doxorubicin based chemotherapy and at three months after completion of the doxorubicin based chemotherapy regimen.
