Design
Allocation: RandomizedIntervention Model: Parallel AssignmentIntervention Model Description: An internally validated CV risk score will be used to determine an individual patient's risk. Low risk patients will be observed and managed according to usual care. Elevated risk patients will be randomized to open label, individually dosed carvedilol for 1 year or usual care.Masking: None (Open Label)Primary Purpose: Supportive Care

This is a single-center, randomized clinical trial that seeks to determine if a risk guided treatment strategy that initiates carvedilol in high risk breast cancer patients prior to doxorubicin and/or trastuzumab is safe, tolerable, and feasible. Subjects who are identified as having elevated CTX Risk by an internally validated clinical risk score (exceeding a pre-specified risk threshold) will be randomized to individually-dosed, open-label carvedilol or usual care. Investigators will use a stratified randomization according to trastuzumab therapy (yes/no) to ensure balance across treatment regimen. Clinical, echocardiographic, and biomarker data will be collected on all patients at baseline and standardized time intervals during and after therapy at approximately 3, 6, 9, 12, and 24 months.
