This is what we were waiting for. A direct comparison between apixaban and rivaroxaban for the treatment of acute VTE. Apixaban reduces bleeding risk in the first 3 months by >50%! Practice changing investigator-initiated RCT. #ISTH2025

🩸 WaVE Study Alert! In patients with acute CAT & weight >90kg, weight-based dalteparin (200 IU/kg) appears safe & effective. 🔹 Anti-Xa levels aligned with non-obese patients 🔹 Higher levels seen in those with bleeding Important data to guide dosing CAT & obesity. 📍Presented by Dr. Wang at #ISTH2025

🚨 SPECTACULAR RCT at #ISTH2025! Although non-inferiority to CTPA wasn’t shown, a negative SPECT V/Q scan led to low 3-month VTE risk— ✅ Supporting the safety of ruling out PE with a SPECT-based algorithm 📸 PE diagnosis rates matched other validated strategies SPECTacular findings indeed! 🫁💥

Meta-analysis on GLP-1RA (vs. placebo) and VTE: 🔹 PE rates significantly lower 📉 🔹 VTE rates lower but not statistically significant 🔹 No difference in DVT 🔹 Study design matters: RCTs vs. observational data Accepted for publication in JTH! #ISTH2025 #VTE #GLP1RA #Thrombosis @jthjournal.bsky.social

Implementation matters! A guideline-driven VTE prevention program (Vermont Model) led to ~60% of high-risk cancer patients receiving prophylactic anticoagulation—resulting in a 60% reduction in VTE and 56% reduction in death. #ISTH2025 #VTEprevention 🩸 @marycushmanmd.bsky.social

Thrilled to listen to the incredible #GI25 keynote speaker @pamelakunzmd.bsky.social inspiring us all with her leadership in inclusive science in GI oncology! @ascopost.bsky.social @halletjulie.bsky.social @drcnclarke.bsky.social @rachnatshroff.bsky.social @nanets.bsky.social

HPV vaccines prevent cancer and save lives. As an oncologist in training, I regularly see the burden and suffering that HPV related cancers cause for my patients. It will involve continuing to build trust, but addressing vaccine hesitancy is vital. #radonc #gyncsm academic.oup.com/jid/advance-...
