Title: | Association between QT prolongation and cardiovascular mortality in cancer patients |

Abstract: | BACKGROUND: Cancer patients' vulnerability to QT prolongation contradicts certain anti-cancer drug usage. Until now, the QT prolongation's impact on CV mortality in cancer patients remains unclear, potentially biasing therapeutic decisions. METHODS: This retrospective observational cohort included adult cancer patients with an electrocardiogram (ECG) performed in a tertiary hospital in Taiwan. The first performed ECGs after cancer diagnosis (n = 59,568) were analyzed. The corrected QT intervals by Bazett (QTcB), Fridericia (QTcFri), and Framingham (QTcFra) formulae were used to predict the 90-day and one-year CV mortality according to the Taiwan death registry. RESULTS: The AUC of QTcB (90 days: 0.70, 1 year: 0.68) for predicting CV mortality was better than QTcFri and QTcFra (90 days: 0.63 and 0.50, 1 year: 0.65 and 0.56). Using the restricted cubic spline regression model adjusted by age and comorbidities, QTcB increased a significant but trivial risk of CV mortality at 90 days (hazard ratio, 1.007, P = 0.02) and one year (1.006, P < 0.01). Compared to those with QTcB < 500ms, the patients with QTcB ≥ 500ms were older and had more comorbidities and mortalities within one year. The incidence of sudden death and ventricular arrhythmias was only 0.2%. After adjusting for comorbidities, QTcB was neither associated with 90-day nor one-year CV mortality. In the patients already with QTcB ≥ 500ms, the patients receiving the unexpected uses of QT-prolonging drugs were not associated with higher one-year CV mortality than those without (P = 0.14). CONCLUSIONS: Rather than a prolonged QT interval per se, comorbidities contributed to CV mortality and irreversible outcomes in cancer patients. |
