Thank you @CureNETs @greeneannac for the opportunity to write this guest blog post for updates in Neuroendocrine Cancer research presented at #ASCO26

1️⃣ Alpha RLT- Early phase data with ²¹²Pb-VMT-α-NET showed a 39% ORR with minimal marrow/renal toxicity, reinforcing the promise of alpha-emitting radioligand therapy. @OncoThor
2️⃣ DLL3 (the target we're all excited about in high grade NENs)- The trispecific T-cell engager alveltamig (ZG006) achieved up to 56% ORR in DLL3-high refractory NEC. Excited to see this moving along.
3️⃣ CAR-T enters the NET space!! Early feasibility data with CDH17-directed CAR-T (CHM-2101) showed successful manufacturing, expansion, and manageable toxicity in GI cancers including intestinal NETs. (Dr Jen Eads @UPennCancer )- trial also open @WinshipAtEmory
4️⃣ MTAP loss in NETs!!?? Unexpectedly high MTAP deficiency across PanNETs and small bowel NETs, reported by @rohit_thum. Room for PRMT5i/MAT2Ai in NETs?
5️⃣ Long-term PRRT safety data matter — In >1,800 patients treated with Lu-177 DOTATATE, overall risk for therapy-related MDS/AML remained low (2.9%) but there is a genuine need for better risk stratification. @deevyaparekh

Truly grateful for the incredible mentorship and camaraderie here @UPMCHHCVFellow It’s been an honor to learn and grow alongside such an amazing team.
Our ⭐️ third-year fellow @AakashRSheth presenting a fantastic grand rounds today on the history of atrial fibrillation management, and how we got to where we are at today.
@AakashRSheth will be joining @PittCardiology next July for his EP fellowship & we are so proud of him!

Atrioventricular node artery may arise from the right, left, or both coronary arteries, w/ variable course in inferior pyramidal space. Understanding its anatomy & variations is vital during catheter ablation or surgery to prevent arterial injury. jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.jacca…

I am thrilled to announce that I will be continuing my training as an Electrophysiology Fellow at UPMC Presbyterian-Shadyside @PittCardiology @HviUpmc.
I am deeply grateful to my mentors and friends at @UPMCHHCVFellow for their guidance and support along the way!
Twitter used to be one of the most efficient ways to connect within the #MedTwitter #EPeeps community.
Restrictions on DM without being forced to be a verified/paid customer of Twitter (unfortunately called “X”now) is one of the many reasons to switch to @bluesky .

#AFib ablation in end-stage HF : Lessons from CASTLE-HTx
📍In end-stage HF pt with AF, catheter ablation reduced AF burden by 36.3 pts & improved LVEF from 29.2% to 39.1% at 12 months (p < 0.001)
📍Persistent AF also dropped significantly (34.8% vs baseline; p = 0.0001).

In this multicenter study, intravascular hemolysis affected 94.3% of patients after PFA, with the highest severity occurring above 54 PFA deliveries #AHAJournals #Epeeps @SergeBoveda @dogi84md @CaluoriGuido doi.org/10.1161/CIRCEP.124.0…

Very important work. So many patients don’t get optimal imaging because of fear of adverse events with CIEDs. We need @HRSonline @Cardiology to advocate for changes to CIED and MRI labeling. MagnaSafe registry is over a decade old now with no changes in federal law!

Future superstar NET specialist and dear friend @UGrewalMD writes about the adverse events associated with Lutathera!! Should be an excellent read for all NET enthusiasts!
🔥Hot off the press-
Happy to share our real world post-marketing pharmacovigilance analysis on hematological toxicities (focus on MDS/AML) with Lutathera (Lu177-DOTA-TATE) in 🇺🇸 .
👉🏽Post-marketing surveillance data from the @US_FDA (2018-2023)
👉🏽 3443 adverse events, 243 (7.1%) were hematologic
👉🏽 majority thrombocytopenia, leukopenia, anemia and pancytopenia
👉🏽 MDS & AML comprised 2% of the reported events each.
👉🏽For context we compare the reporting of hematological toxicities (esp MDS and AML) with topoisomerase inhibitors
👉🏽This is a helpful reference that may potentially inform discussions with patients planning to receive PRRT (now referred to as radioligand therapy or RLT).
Limitations- captures only 🇺🇸 data and the events reported to @US_FDA.
Thank you @thakre_anuj for your help with the project.

From getting countless opportunities to learn and network to having a great platform to present our team’s work @HRSonline #HRS24 never disappoints. #epeeps
@harsh_cardio @UPMCHHCVFellow @HviUpmc @abhishek_mbbs @drpaari @SaurabhSDani @DrDeese99 @TheRhythmDoc @MLabedi
We will presenting our work on the impact of #GLP1RA in post-AF ablation patients at #HRS24 on Sunday, May 19. Here is the @CardiologyToday article covering our research.
@harsh_cardio @SaurabhSDani @abhishek_mbbs @DrDeese99 @TheRhythmDoc @drpaari @UPMCHHCVFellow @HviUpmc
In patients with type 2 diabetes who underwent ablation for #afib, those taking a GLP-1 receptor agonist had lower risk for AF recurrence, mortality and other outcomes #HRS2024 @HRSonline @AakashRSheth @HviUpmc #Cardiotwitter #EPeeps

Re-sharing our commentary on the struggles of FMGs training on J1 visas. About time we addressed the need for extended J1 visas (covering the duration of training) and fair employment opportunities. This IS a part of physician well-being! 🇺🇸 🌎

PROUD of our fellows at #AHA23!
@AakashRSheth presented his work on the impact of BMI on pericardial effusion after catheter ablation for afib.
@a_h_ghoneem represented @CardioNerds as a conference scholar & interviewed @LincoffMichael to discuss the new #SELECT trial.
