New ERLEADA ® (apalutamide) Analysis Demonstrates Rapid, Deep Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) Response in Patients with Metastatic Castration-Sensitive Prostate Cancer (mCSPC)
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 14, 2022 – The Janssen Pharmaceutical Companies of Johnson & Johnson today announced new real-world evidence data showing the initiation of ERLEADA® (apalutamide) results in high rates of rapid and deep prostate-specific antigen (PSA) response among patients with metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC). In a separate post-hoc analysis of the registrational Phase 3 SPARTAN and TITAN studies, rapid and deep PSA responses with ERLEADA® were associated with improvement in patient-reported outcomes (PROs) related to quality of life, physical wellbeing, pain, and fatigue intensity. The...

SGLT2 Inhibitors Are Lifesavers in Heart Failure
The first three trials of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors investigating cardiovascular (CV) safety, as required by the Food and Drug Administration, all revealed an unexpected approximate 30% reduction in heart failure (HF) hospitalizations in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) with and at risk for CV disease.1 –3 However, these drugs were not associated with decreased stroke risk or reductions in myocardial infarction. These findings piqued the interest of HF specialists and led to clinical trials specifically investigating the effects of SGLT2 inhibitors in patients with HF (Fig. 1).

New Era: Mavacamten for Obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
Cardiovasc Hematol Agents Med Chem. 2022 Oct 19. doi: 10.2174/1871525721666221019095218. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTObstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy results from asymmetric septal hypertrophy which eventually obstructs the outflow of the left ventricle. Obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is linked to mutations in genes that encode for sarcomere proteins including actin, β:myosin heavy chain, titin, and troponin. The mutations lead to structural abnormalities in myocytes and myofibrils causing conduction irregularities and abnormal force generation. Obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a chronic...

Straight from the heart: Mysterious lipids may predict cardiac problems better than cholesterol
Stephanie Blendermann, 65, had good reason to worry about heart disease. Three of her sisters died in their 40s or early 50s from heart attacks, and her father needed surgery to bypass clogged arteries. She also suffered from an autoimmune disorder that results in chronic inflammation and boosts the odds of developing cardiovascular illnesses. “I have an interesting medical chart,” says Blendermann, a real estate agent in Prior Lake, Minnesota.
Yet Blendermann’s routine lab results weren’t alarming. At checkups, her low-density lipoprotein (LDL), or “bad,” cholesterol hovered around the 100 milligrams-per-...
