Cancer and cardiovascular diseases are the two major causes of mortality, morbidity, and disability worldwide. The improvement in effective therapeutic options for the management of breast cancer (BC) has led to an increased number of BC survivors, who can experience long-term toxicities from cancer treatments. Adverse events including cardiovascular toxicities must be considered in light of effectiveness of recently approved drugs for BC treatment, including elacestrant, tucatinib, neratinib, olaparib, the immune checkpoint inhibitors, trastuzumab deruxtecan, and sacituzumab govitecan.

Many cancer drugs affect the cardiovascular system with a range of clinical manifestations. Prompt diagnosis and treatment as well as a multidisciplinary approach involving a cardio-oncologist are optimal for management of these cardiovascular events.
