MAIA frailty subgroup analysis: long-term follow-up with daratumumab plus lenalidomide/dexamethasone in transplant-ineligible newly diagnosed myeloma

Abstract In MAIA (Daratumumab, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone versus lenalidomide and dexamethasone alone in newly diagnosed multiple myeloma), daratumumab plus lenalidomide/dexamethasone (D-Rd) improved progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) versus Rd in tran...

Environmental exposures and risks for the idiopathic inflammatory myopathies and its phenotypes: a narrative review

Purpose of review The delineation of myositis-specific autoantibody (MSA) subgroups over the past two decades has reframed environmental research in idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIMs), making it plausible to examine discrete exposure-phenotype pairings within serologically...

Critical result thresholds and notification practices in clinical laboratories

Laboratory medicine plays an important role in clinical decision-making. The timely notification of results requiring medical attention is therefore essential to ensure patient safety. Since its introduction, the concept of critical result notification has expanded to include bot...

Daratumumab, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone in transplant-ineligible newly diagnosed multiple myeloma: MAIA final survival analysis

Abstract In previous analyses of MAIA, daratumumab plus lenalidomide/dexamethasone (D-Rd) significantly improved progression-free survival and overall survival (OS) versus lenalidomide/dexamethasone (Rd) in transplant-ineligible newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM). We report...

Management of high-risk (B3) breast lesions in symptomatic practice: evidence review and practical recommendations for multidisciplinary care

Borderline breast lesions (B3 lesions, also termed lesions of uncertain malignant potential or high-risk lesions) represent a heterogeneous group of entities associated with variable risks of malignancy. While the management of screen-detected B3 lesions has become increasingly s...
