Multidisciplinary efforts help promote the success of clinical trials and innovation for patients with various forms of lymphoma, explained Andrew Evens, DO.

Naim Alkhouri, MD, spoke to the potential for glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists to transform the treatment landscape for patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) and severe fibrosis.

Antoine Keller, MD, argued the value of grounding health care policy in equity as clinicians prepare for a changing health care landscape in the coming years.

Lacking awareness of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) constitutes a critical barrier for enhancing patient care, said Naim Alkhouri, MD. Awareness efforts can not only increase patient access, but also improve the overall wellbeing, experience, and outcomes for this population.

Antoine Keller, MD, discussed the future impact of technological advances for cardiovascular (CV) care and what other elements contribute to quality, accessible health care.

To better treat adolescent and young adult (AYA) patients with various subtypes of Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL), Andrew Evens, DO, speaks to the importance of primary care, screening access, and research.

Because clinical trials do not mimic the real-world application of multiple myeloma treatments, Ajai Chari, MD, discussed the variety of patient factors clinicians should consider in their practice.

Jon Giles, MD, speaks to the power of personalized medicine and multidisciplinary care to enhance treatment for patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

A new survey highlights how the mental toll of loneliness trickles down to have very real physical consequences for patients with chronic illness.

When it comes to treating multiple myeloma (MM), Ajai Chari, MD, argued that more is not always better. More intense treatment regimens, or those with more drugs, don't necessarily guarantee better outcomes.

The continued success of abelacimab throughout the AZALEA-TIMI 71 trials helps draw the drug closer to FDA approval, stated Sid Patel, MD.

The future of treating metabolic dysfunction–associated steatohepatitis (MASH) looks brighter than ever, says Naim Alkhouri, MD, as data emerges on newly developed interventions.

"Value" in oncology should measure far more than clinical outcomes, stated Andrew Chapman, DO, as he argued how rethinking "value" could not only enhance patient care but also drive down costs.

Although immunotherapies and biomarker-driven interventions have transformed lung cancer outcomes, Martin Edelman, MD, Fox Chase Cancer Center, highlighted the present challenge hindering clinicians' abilities to anticipate patients' treatment responses.

Health care disparities are often driven by where patients live, explained Antoine Keller, MD, as he discussed the complex, systematic hurdles that influence the health of rural communities.

Pierluigi Porcu, MD, speaks to the considerations clinicians need to account for to balance cost, patient experience, and outcomes for those with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).

Recent advances have marked a turning point for the treatment noncirrhotic metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), with more therapies on the horizon to hopefully better address patients' cirrhosis, explained Naim Alkhouri, MD.

Missy Hopson, PhD, Ochsner Health, discussed in detail the challenges of strengthening the patient-centered workforce, the power of community reputation for encouraging health care careers, and the influence of empowered workforces on patient outcomes.

Elizabeth Grush, MBA, speaks to the support, benefits, and holistic considerations that patient-centered care can provide for the betterment of patient experiences and outcomes.

A recent review highlights the gaps in clinical guidelines and treatment approaches for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) and looks ahead to the future promise of glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists for liver conditions.

Beau Raymond, MD, elaborates on what successful patient-centered care entails, highlighting the role of patients to not only judge the success of their own care but also help guide clinicians as they pursue their personal care goals.

Coverage from the Atlanta Regional meeting of the Institute for Value-Based Medicine.

Kenny Cole, MD, of Ochsner Health, spoke to the value integrated teams bring to health care and the obstacles that hinder health systems' ability to move toward integrated care approaches.

Joseph Saseen, PharmD, discussed the importance of knowing lipoprotein a (Lp[a]) levels to enable clinicians to provide the best patient care and spread awareness to those who might be affected.

Lipoprotein a (Lp[a]) is a valuable tool for assessing a patient's risk of cardiovascular disease, which can facilitate earlier intervention efforts and reduce health care costs, argued Jeremy Wigginton, MD.

Taxing imports to the US could spell major consequences for health care prices, innovation, and access, as a great amount of medical supplies and ingredients are manufactured overseas.

Giulio Cossu, MD, University of Manchester, discusses barriers to gene therapy research and development.

Clinical approaches to non-Hodgkin lymphoma in younger and older patient groups generally do not differ, according to Andrew Evens, DO, but he emphasized the need for deeper clinical insights into potential biologic differences in younger oncology patients.

Addressing the accessibility and high costs of chimeric antibody receptor (CAR) T-cell and bispecific therapies is crucial for maximizing their impact in multiple myeloma (MM).

Adolescent and Young Adult Cancer Awareness Week serves as an opportunity to shed light on the special considerations and experiences of younger oncology patient populations.
