📰 HOT OFF THE PRESSES 📰
Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor (#ICIs) treatments are known to potentially cause harm to the heart, particularly through conditions like #myocarditis.
Today in @JAMAOnc, we stressed the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration as the best way to mitigate effects and protect the #hearts of #cancer patients.

@RajaZaghlol, a fantastic @WashUCardiology fellow, led this impactful study on afib in stem cell tx patients. Patients with afib were 3-4x more likely to die in the hospital, and 50% more likely to die in 90 days after discharge. Congrats! @ICOSociety#cardioonc

Congrats to Matt Lui, outstanding @WashUCardiology fellow, on his study showing that a visual review of CAC on NSCLC RAD planning CT was more predictive of CV events than Rad dose. Visual review ~ formal CAC score. #cardioonc@ICOSociety@SBRT_CR

Awesome work by @RajaZaghlol exploring the CV effects of CAR-T in the Medicare population. Well-deserved! Special thanks to @kejoynt, @dgermain21 and Elena Deych, among others as well! Looking forward to the manuscript! @WashUCardiology#cardioonc
Proud to be selected as a YIA finalist in the #GCOS2024 presenting our work investigating MACE in older adults receiving CART therapy. Special thanks to @joshmitchellmd for exceptional mentoring. @ICOSociety
The Continuing Medical Education - Amyloidosis 2024: Update on Best Practices for Early Detection and Treatment - will be Saturday, April 27th. It's designed for healthcare providers involved in the diagnosis or management of amyloidosis. @WUSTLmed

Great partnering with @myocardialsoln + the team on this important study. MRI myocardial strain is the most sensitive way to detect early cardiotoxicity. Excited to determine how early detection can best guide cardioprotection to improve heart health. @WashUCardiology#cardioonc

Excited to share this preprint. Serial, routine troponin-I screening in 428 consecutive patients treated with immunotherapy at our center was correlated with lower rates of grade 4-5 cardiovascular adverse events without a change in oncologic time on tx
