Vascular Toxicities of Immune ChecKpoint Inhibitors : From Bed to Benchside

Sponsor: Institut Mutualiste Montsouris

Summary

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are largely prescribed in a growing number of cancer diseases and at earlier stages (non metastatic cancer). Among immune-related adverse events, (iRAEs), the incidence of major cardiovascular events due to atherosclerosis reaches 13% at one year in patients at high risk. To the best of our knowledge, the mechanisms of this acceleration of atherosclerosis have not been studied to this date. The VICKI study aims at furthering our knowledge on the mechanisms of atherosclerotic plaque instability by means of a prospective single-centre pilot study, by comparing: * surrogate markers of clinical vasculo-toxicity with arterial Doppler (flow mediated reserve) as defined by the International Cardio-Oncology Society; * circulating biomarkers Before and after receiving ICIs for solid cancer treatment.
