Cabozantinib is a novel multitargeted receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor commonly used to treat advanced renal cell carcinoma. Cardiotoxicity is not a previously well-described adverse effect of cabozantinib. We present a rare case of a 74-year-old male with a history of renal cell carcinoma who underwent partial nephrectomy. The patient had been recently started on cabozantinib for advanced metastatic renal cell carcinoma. He developed acute onset of heart failure and subclinical hypothyroidism within nine months of treatment. Our case report postulates a causal relationship between cabozantinib and the development of non-ischemic cardiomyopathy.
卡博替尼是一种新型的多靶点受体酪氨酸激酶抑制剂,常用于治疗晚期肾细胞癌。心脏毒性并非卡博替尼之前被充分描述的不良反应。我们报告一例罕见病例,一名74岁男性,有肾细胞癌病史,接受了部分肾切除术。该患者最近开始使用卡博替尼治疗晚期转移性肾细胞癌。在治疗的九个月内,他出现了急性心力衰竭和亚临床甲状腺功能减退。我们的病例报告推测卡博替尼与非缺血性心肌病的发生之间存在因果关系。
