Primary cardiac event was defined as either: Heart Failure (New York Heart Association [NYHA] Class III or IV) and a drop in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of at least 10 ejection fraction (EF) points from baseline and to below 50 percent (%); or cardiac death. Cardiac death was defined as either definite cardiac death: due to heart failure, myocardial infarction, or documented primary arrhythmia; or probable cardiac death: sudden unexpected death within 24 hours of a definite or probable cardiac event (e.g., syncope, cardiac arrest, chest pain, infarction, arrhythmia) without documented etiology.
Secondary cardiac event was defined as asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic (NYHA Class II) significant drop in LVEF (defined as an absolute decrease of at least 10 EF points from baseline and to below 50%), confirmed by a second LVEF assessment within approximately three weeks of the first significant LVEF assessment or confirmed by the Cardiac Advisory Board (CAB).
LVEF is the fraction of blood (in percent) pumped out of the heart's left ventricular chamber with each heart beat, and is a measure of cardiac output for the heart. Baseline LVEF value and the maximum absolute decrease (worst value) in LVEF measurement from baseline were reported. LVEF was measured by echocardiogram (ECHO) or multiple-gated acquisition (MUGA) scan.
EORTC QLQ-C30 is a cancer-specific instrument with 30 questions used to assess the overall quality of life (QOL) in cancer participants. First 28 questions used 4-point scale (1=not at all, 2=a little, 3=quite a bit, 4=very much) for evaluating 5 functional scales (physical, role, social, cognitive, emotional), 8 symptom scales/items (diarrhea, fatigue, dyspnea, appetite loss, insomnia, nausea and vomiting [N/V], constipation, and pain) and a single item (financial difficulties). Last 2 questions represented participant's assessment of overall health and quality of life, used 7-point scale (1=very poor to 7=excellent). EORTC QLQ-C30 global scores were linearly transformed on a scale of 0 to 100, with a high score indicating better GHS/QOL. Negative change from Baseline values indicated deterioration in QOL or functioning and positive values indicated improvement.

Last 2 questions represented participant's assessment of overall health and quality of life, coded on 7-point scale (1=very poor to 7=excellent). EORTC QLQ-C30 functioning scores were linearly transformed on a scale of 0 to 100, with a high score indicating better functioning/support. Negative change from Baseline values indicated deterioration in functioning and positive values indicated improvement.

EORTC QLQ-C30 disease/treatment-related symptom scores were linearly transformed on a scale of 0 to 100, with a high score indicating a higher level of symptoms. Negative change from Baseline values indicated improvement in symptoms and positive values indicated worsening of symptoms.

EORTC-QLQ-BR23 is a 23-item breast cancer-specific companion module to the EORTC-QLQ-C30 and consists of four functional scales (body image, sexual enjoyment, sexual functioning, future perspective [FP]) and four symptom scales (systemic side effects [SE], upset by hair loss, arm symptoms, breast symptoms). Questions used 4-point scale (1=not at all, 2=a little, 3=quite a bit, 4=very much). Scores averaged and transformed to 0-100 scale. High score for functional scale indicated high/better level of functioning/healthy functioning. Negative change from Baseline indicated deterioration in QOL and positive change from Baseline indicated an improvement in QOL.
