Abstract
This study evaluated the occurrence of apatinib-induced hypertension and its impact on the prognosis of patients with solid tumors. A retrospective cohort study with prospective follow-up was conducted on 769 patients treated with apatinib from 2014 to 2021 across three hospitals. Patients were categorized into hypertension and non-hypertension groups. The primary outcome was overall survival (OS), with progression-free survival (PFS) as a secondary outcome. Apatinib-induced hypertension occurred in 33.3% of patients and was associated with significantly longer OS (HR 0.40, 95% CI [0.37-0.48], p < 0.0001) and PFS (HR 0.41, 95% CI [0.35-0.49], p < 0.001). Subgroup analysis confirmed these findings in all cancer types, except for PFS in non-small cell lung cancer. Hypertension may serve as a predictive biomarker for improved anti-tumor efficacy.
期刊介绍：
Cardiovascular Toxicology is the only journal dedicated to publishing contemporary issues, timely reviews, and experimental and clinical data on toxicological aspects of cardiovascular disease. CT publishes papers that will elucidate the effects, molecular mechanisms, and signaling pathways of environmental toxicants on the cardiovascular system. Also covered are the detrimental effects of new cardiovascular drugs, and cardiovascular effects of non-cardiovascular drugs, anti-cancer chemotherapy, and gene therapy. In addition, Cardiovascular Toxicology reports safety and toxicological data on new cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular drugs.
