Despite adherence to quadruple guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) and device support, these “stable,” guideline-treated patients carry residual risk for CV death. Recent evidence shows that the addition of soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) stimulators provides significant reductions in CV death and all-cause mortality, particularly in individuals with moderately elevated NT-proBNP (≤6,000 pg/mL). However, cardiologists often underestimate risk in these ambulatory patients and may hesitate to add therapies when GDMT appears to be working well. Our experts break down a case to illustrate how and when to employ recent data regarding the use of additional sGC in appropriate patients with HFrEF.=

Evolving evidence and clinical guidelines now strongly support the use of asparaginase-based, pediatric-inspired regimens over traditional adult protocols for young adults with ALL. However, many patients continue to be treated with adult protocols that lack asparaginase and are associated with poorer outcomes. In this dynamic, case-based activity, celebrity advocates Rob Benedict and Abbie Cobb, leading leukemia experts, and real people who have been treated for ALL explore practical foundations for successful asparaginase therapy. Leveraging new consensus recommendations, faculty experts explain how to select and when to switch asparaginase formulations, how to monitor serum asparaginase activity, and strategies to mitigate key toxicities while avoiding early asparaginase discontinuation that can compromise survival. Real-world stories from young adults who have been treated for ALL highlight the stakes of getting this right and the challenges of access, adherence, and comprehensive care that clinicians can address in everyday practice.

Drs. Bohula and Leiter discuss unmet needs, shifting LDL-C targets, and emerging treatment strategies, including PCSK9 inhibitors and results from the VESALIUS-CV trial. The conversation highlights how early, intensive LDL reduction can meaningfully lower the risk of first CV events. Practical guidance is shared on risk assessment, statin optimization, evaluating and managing statin intolerance, and the use of combination lipid-lowering therapy.=

Clinical features such as high-impact disease sites, failure of topical treatment, or BSA >10% all factor into whether patients are candidates for systemic therapy in this new guidance. Despite broad endorsement, many clinicians remain uncertain about applying the new framework. This activity aims to raise awareness, clarify updated criteria, and align practice with current evidence supporting earlier use of IL-23 and IL-17 inhibitors in appropriate patients.=
