Contributions
Oncology
Melanoma
- BRIM-3: Vemurafenib improved overall survival for metastatic melanoma patients with a BRAF V600 mutation.
- CheckMate-066: Nivolumab substantially improved PFS and OS for metastatic melanoma patients without a BRAF mutation.
- KEYNOTE-006: Pembrolizumab outperformed ipilimumab in PFS and OS for unresectable and metastatic melanoma.
- EORTC 18071: Ipilimumab improved overall survival in patients with completely resected Stage III melanoma.
Breast Cancer
- CLEOPATRA: Pertuzumab significantly improves survival in HER2+ metastatic breast cancer when added to trastuzumab/docetaxol.
- Canadian National Breast Screening Study: Annual mammogram led to higher rates of overdiagnosis with no mortality benefit in women 40-59.
Lung Cancer
- IALT: Adjuvant cisplatin-based chemotherapy improves survival in patients with complete surgical resection of Stage I-III NSCLC.
Colon Cancer
- COLONPREV: FIT is noninferior to colonoscopy in detecting colorectal cancer, at interim analysis.
Hospital Medicine
Pulmonary
- PREPIC-2: In patients with PE at high risk of recurrence, IVC filter failed to reduce risk of recurrent PE compared to anticoagulation alone.
- FLORALI: High flow nasal cannula (HFNC) substantially improved mortality in acute hypoxemic respiratory failure compared to NIPPV.
Cardiology
- REVERT: The modified Valsalva maneuver converts more patients with SVT to sinus rhythm than Valsalva alone.
