Venetoclax plus azacitidine represents a key advance for older, unfit patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The chemotherapy and venetoclax in elderly AML trial (CAVEAT) was first to combine venetoclax with intensive chemotherapy in newly diagnosed patients ≥65 years. In this final analysis, 85 patients (median age 71 years) were followed for a median of 41.

Purpose: Angioplasty of lower extremity arteries with calcification may result in flow-limiting dissection requiring bail-out stenting with unfavorable long-term outcomes. Vessel preparation prior to angioplasty may improve immediate results of the angioplasty and long-term patency. This prospective study assessed the 12-month outcomes of patients who underwent novel vessel preparation catheter, the FLEX Vessel Prep™ System (FLEX VP), prior to drug-coated balloon angioplasty (DCB-PTA).

Hypoparathyroidism (hypoPTH), sensorineural deafness, and renal dysplasia (HDR) syndrome is a rare autosomal dominant condition with approximately 200 cases published. HDR syndrome is caused by variants of GATA binding protein 3 gene (), which encodes a transcription factor, with multiple types of variants reported. We present the case of a 76-year-old woman who was diagnosed with hypoPTH when she was aged 40 years and transferred care to our institution.

The cyclin-dependent kinases 4 and 6 inhibitors are the mainstay of treatment for patients with hormone receptor-positive and HER2-negative breast cancer. The ability of these drugs to improve the outcome of patients both in the metastatic and the early setting has been largely demonstrated. However, resistance, either de novo or acquired, represents a major clinical challenge.
