Interventions to improve adherence to anti-osteoporosis medications: an updated systematic review.

An earlier systematic review on interventions to improve adherence and persistence was updated. Fifteen studies investigating the effectiveness of patient education, drug regimen, monitoring and supervision, and interdisciplinary collaboration as a single or multi-component intervention were appraised. Multicomponent interventions with active patient involvement were more effective.IntroductionThis study was conducted to update a systematic literature review on interventions to improve adherence to anti-osteoporosis medications.MethodsA systematic literature review was carried out in Medline (

Early Experience with Tarlatamab (T-Cell Engagers) for Extensive-Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer (ES-SCLC) in Canada: Lessons Learned and Implementation Strategies.

As bispecific T-cell engagers (TCEs) gain traction in the oncology treatment landscape, cancer centres must develop robust clinical pathways to ensure their safe and efficient delivery. Given the limited experience of the Canadian medical oncology community with TCEs, collecting and publishing early clinical experiences with these novel agents will be essential to inform best practices and support their safe and effective adoption across the broader Canadian oncology community. The approval of tarlatamab, the first-in-class delta-like ligand 3 (DLL3)-targeted TCE for extensive-stage small cell

Fit theory: A cancer experience grounded theory emerging from semi-structured interviews with cancer patients and informal caregivers in Manitoba Canada during the COVID-19 pandemic.

BackgroundIt is not clear how changes to healthcare delivery related to the COVID-19 pandemic, including virtual care and social distancing restrictions, have impacted the experience of living with cancer. This study aimed to discover a theory capable of describing the cancer experience, how the pandemic impacted it, and for guiding predictions about how to improve it.MethodsBetween October 2020 and July 2021 digitally recorded semi-structured one-on-one interviews were conducted virtually with adult cancer patients and informal caregivers in Manitoba, Canada.

Pediatric Drug Development: Reviewing Challenges and Opportunities by Tracking Innovative Therapies.

The paradigm of pediatric drug development has been evolving in a "carrot-and-stick"-based tactic to address population-specific issues. However, the off-label prescription of adult medicines to pediatric patients remains a feature of clinical practice, which may compromise the age-appropriate evaluation of treatments. Therefore, the United States and the European Pediatric Formulation Initiative have recommended applying nanotechnology-based delivery systems to tackle some of these challenges, particularly applying inorganic, polymeric, and lipid-based nanoparticles. Connected with these, adv

Patients' and family members' dyadic experience of post-operative delirium in the intensive care unit: A qualitative study.

BACKGROUND: Post-operative delirium is a complication with long-lasting consequences for both patients and their families. This is particularly true for those transferred to the intensive care unit after surgery, where the incidence of post-operative delirium is high, and patient outcomes are often poor. Despite the acknowledged role of family engagement in delirium management, previous research has mainly focused on patients, with limited exploration of the shared experiences between patients and family members. AIM: This study aims to explore the experiences of patients and family members d

Cancer survivorship at heart: a multidisciplinary cardio-oncology roadmap for healthcare professionals.

In cancer, a patient is considered a survivor from the time of initial diagnosis until the end of life. With improvements in early diagnosis and treatment, the number of cancer survivors (CS) has grown considerably and includes: (1) Patients cured and free from cancer who may be at risk of late-onset cancer therapy-related cardiovascular toxicity (CTR-CVT); (2) Patients with long-term control of not-curable cancers in whom CTR-CVT may need to be addressed. This paper highlights the importance of the cancer care continuum, of a patient-centered approach and of a prevention-oriented policy. The

What are the attitudes of health professionals regarding patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) in oncology practice? A mixed-method synthesis of the qualitative evidence.

BackgroundThe adoption of Patient Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) in cancer care has been widely advocated, but little is known about the evidence for the implementation of PROMs in practice. Qualitative research captures the perspectives of health professionals as end-users of PROMs and can be used to inform adoption efforts. This paper presents a systematic review and synthesis of qualitative research conducted to address the question: What are the attitudes of health professionals towards PROMs in oncology, including any barriers and facilitators to the adoption of PROMS, reported in qual

Оказание высококачественной комплексной помощи в области склероза в Германии: проблемы и региональные модели.

Множественная склерозовая (МС) помощь в Германии вступила в стадию, когда терапевтический прогресс все больше сдерживается возможностями родовспоможения. Более ранняя диагностика, более широкий доступ к высокоэффективным методам лечения заболеваний (ДМТ) и более совершенные стратегии мониторинга расширили возможности для достижения благоприятных долгосрочных результатов. В то же время эти достижения усилили потребность в специализированных экспертных знаниях, инфильтрации и инфраструктуре мониторинга, оперативном доступе к изображениям, структурированных процедурах обеспечения безопасности и м

mHealth technologies in research studying cardiovascular health in cancer: A systematic review.

Cancer survivors face an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) due to treatment-related toxicity, lifestyle factors, and comorbidities. Addressing CV health is crucial for improving quality of life and long-term outcomes. The American Heart Association's Life's Essential 8 framework highlights modifiable determinants of CV health, emphasizing early detection and monitoring. Mobile health (mHealth) technologies, such as wearables and smartphone apps, offer continuous tracking, yet their applications in cancer survivorship remain unclear. This review systematically characterizes the typ

ESMO expert consensus statements on the screening and management of financial toxicity in patients with cancer.

BackgroundFinancial toxicity, defined as both the objective financial burden and subjective financial distress from a cancer diagnosis and its treatment, is a topic of interest in the assessment of the quality of life of patients with cancer and their families. Current evidence implicates financial toxicity in psychosocial, economic and other harms, leading to suboptimal cancer outcomes along the entire trajectory of diagnosis, treatment, supportive care, survivorship and palliation. This paper presents the results of a virtual consensus, based on the evidence base to date, on the screening an

Integrating Artificial Intelligence, Circulating Tumor DNA, and Real-World Evidence to Optimize Hematologic Clinical Trials: Toward Adaptive and Learning Trial Designs.

The integration of emerging technologies and real-world data is transforming the landscape of hematologic clinical trials. Artificial intelligence (AI) offers remarkable capabilities for predictive modeling, patient stratification, and adaptive trial design, while circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) provides a minimally invasive biomarker for disease monitoring, the early detection of relapse, and treatment response assessment. Concurrently, real-world evidence (RWE) complements traditional clinical trial data by capturing treatment effectiveness, safety, and patient outcomes in broader, heterogeneo
