HFA-ICOS Baseline Risk before RAF and MEK Inhibitors calculator

Enter the published formula inputs below to calculate and interpret this score.

Clinical inputs

Heart failure or cardiomyopathy
Myocardial infarction or coronary bypass
Stable angina
Severe valvular heart disease
%

Allowed range: 5–80 %

Quick picks

50% through 54% is medium 2. Under 50% and 55% or higher add no points on this table.

Arrhythmia in the table

Atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, ventricular tachycardia, or ventricular fibrillation.

Baseline troponin above the local upper limit

Above the upper limit of the local laboratory reference range. This row is medium 2.

Baseline BNP or NT-proBNP above the local upper limit

Above the upper limit of the local laboratory reference range. This row is medium 2.

years

Allowed range: 18–110 years

Quick picks

65 years or older is medium 1. This table has no separate high-risk age row.

mmHg

Allowed range: 60–260 mmHg

Quick picks

Hypertension, and therefore medium 2, is systolic pressure above 140 mmHg or diastolic pressure above 90 mmHg or treatment.

mmHg

Allowed range: 30–160 mmHg

Quick picks

Hypertension, and therefore medium 2, is systolic pressure above 140 mmHg or diastolic pressure above 90 mmHg or treatment.

On treatment for hypertension
%

Allowed range: 4–20 %

Quick picks

Diabetes, and therefore medium 1, is HbA1c above 7.0%, the same threshold as above 53 mmol/mol, or treatment. Enter the percent.

On treatment for diabetes
mL/min/1.73 m²

Allowed range: 1–200 mL/min/1.73 m²

Quick picks

Under 60 mL/min/1.73 m² is medium 1.

Prior anthracycline exposure
Prior radiotherapy to the left chest or mediastinum
Current smoking or a significant smoking history
kg/m²

Allowed range: 10–80 kg/m²

Quick picks

Above 30 kg/m² is medium 1. 30 kg/m² does not score.

Lyon AR et al. Baseline cardiovascular risk assessment in cancer patients scheduled to receive cardiotoxic cancer therapies. Eur J Heart Fail. DOI: 10.1002/ejhf.1920. PMID: 32463967. Table 7, combination RAF and MEK inhibitors (dabrafenib plus trametinib, vemurafenib plus cobimetinib, encorafenib plus binimetinib). Very high: heart failure or cardiomyopathy. High: myocardial infarction or coronary bypass, stable angina, severe valvular heart disease, prior anthracycline. Medium 2: LVEF 50–54%, troponin above the local upper limit, BNP or NT-proBNP above the local upper limit, hypertension, prior radiotherapy to the left chest or mediastinum. Medium 1: atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, ventricular tachycardia, or ventricular fibrillation; age 65 years or older; diabetes; eGFR under 60 mL/min/1.73 m²; current smoking or a significant smoking history; BMI above 30 kg/m². Hypertension is systolic pressure above 140 mmHg or diastolic pressure above 90 mmHg or treatment. Diabetes is HbA1c above 7.0% (above 53 mmol/mol) or treatment. Low risk is no risk factor or one medium-1 factor. Medium risk is medium factors adding to 2–4 points. High risk is any high factor or medium factors adding to 5 or more points. Very high risk is any very high factor. This table has no high-risk row for LVEF under 50% and no high-risk age row. (2020)
