The CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices was expected to meet later in June to issue recommendations for use.

Patients who remained on treatment, especially at higher doses or on tirzepatide, were more likely to achieve clinically meaningful weight loss and improved glycemic control.

Merrill H. Stewart, MD, Ochsner Health, explains misconceptions about stents and bypass surgery and highlights when cardiac positron emission tomography (PET) stress testing is most appropriate.

David Awad, PharmD, BCOP, says pharmacists play a growing role in managing access, safety, and toxicity for these therapies, ensuring treatments are appropriate and sustainable in real-world oncology practice.

According to Merrill H. Stewart, MD, Ochsner Health, the test can more accurately identify high-risk patients while helping others avoid unnecessary invasive procedures.

Findings offer a potential basis for sex-specific dietary guidelines for metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), as this relationship was significant for men but not women.

Switching patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) from ibrutinib to zanubrutinib has led to fewer cardiac adverse effects and a reduced workload for Mohit Narang, MD, managing partner at Maryland Oncology Hematology.

The most prevalent types are prostate cancer among men and breast cancer among women.

A pharmaceutical-grade cannabidiol (CBD) product was shown to be safe in high-risk patients hospitalized with COVID-19, with no increased rate of cardiac side effects compared with placebo.

New findings from the MATINEE and COPD-HELP studies suggest mepolizumab could reduce exacerbations and improve quality of life in patients with eosinophilic chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Nerandomilast significantly slowed lung function decline and reduced mortality in patients with progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF), with consistent efficacy regardless of background antifibrotic therapy.

Researchers are working to redefine diagnosis and treatment with data-driven tools aimed at identifying patients earlier and guiding precision care.

The latest results from the phase 3 FIBRONEER-IPF trial showed consistent benefit of nerandomilast in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) whether or not they were receiving background antifibrotic therapy.

Research presented at the American Thoracic Society (ATS) 2025 International Conference used FDA-approved tools to see how sleep can impact other parts of recovery for patients in the intensive care unit (ICU).

Solutions depend on listening to individuals with lived experience, rebuilding trust, and recognizing the humanity of every patient, experts say.

While the US leads in early-phase obesity trials and investment, the country also faces challenges in disease burden, trial saturation, access, and long-term care distinct from other parts of the world.
