Colchicine reduces competitive advantage of clonal hematopoiesis (esp TET2) in COLCOT ahajournals.org/doi/abs/10.1… @CircAHA Similar to LoDoCo2 jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.jacc.… @JACCJournals Our prior work in mice & human biobanks suggests that colchicine may be effective in reducing TET2 CHIP-associated CVD risk academic.oup.com/eurheartj/a… @ESC_Journals

It was an honor to be a part of this fantastic podcast series. You’re a gifted interviewer who leads by example. @cityofhope and the countless mentees you’ve influenced are fortunate to have you.
A touching conversation with @ArmenianSaro, our Chair of #PediatricOncology, on the @cityofhope podcats. Despite years of knowing him, had no idea the personal connection he had to the field. Listen here: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

In this exploratory analysis, Tx w/ low-dose colchicine was assoc w/ an attenuated annual clonal growth in TET2 CH. Findings suggest potential for colchicine to curb proliferative advantage of key CH driver mutations jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.jacc.… #ESCCongress #WCCardio #JACC @mchonig

A true legend in the field of hematology/oncology. Dr. Stephen Forman was involved in the seminal studies of BMT for hematologic malignancies & evolved into a pioneer of CAR-T cell therapy. There are literally dozens of faculty at @cityofhope & beyond who consider him to be their most influential mentor. This podcast is a must-listen! @TDorffOnc @SaulPriceman @ArmenianSaro @stacywgray
Could radiation be the key to unlocking CAR T cell therapy’s full potential? On the new episode of On the Edge of Breakthrough: Voices of Cancer Research (w/ @montypal), Dr. Forman breaks down how combining radiation with CAR T could enhance impact. Full episode coming 7/22.

Both clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) and cancer are more common with age. When they coexist in the same patient, CHIP cells may migrate to the tumor and have an adverse effect on overall survival.

Best talk I have been to all year was right here at @cityofhope at our GU retreat (organized by @arafflemd). @yunroseli @COH_RadOnc just delivered a tour de force highlighting her work in #prostatecancer w @TDorffOnc et al focused on fasting interventions & other metabolic strategies. Well executed @NIH funded studies w rich correlatives; recently funded effort looking at #GLP1 alongside @JuneWRhee thanks for a massive @American_Heart grant. Keep up the amazing work, Rose! Proud of you.

A high polygenic risk score (PRS) for screening prostate cancer was superior to a PSA test or MRI for detecting clinically significant disease (Gleason ≥7). A big step forward for supporting utility of PRS @NEJM nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NE…

In patients with #lymphoma undergoing autologous HCT, #CHIP is highly prevalent and associated with significantly increased risk for HF as well as NRM. Further studies are warranted jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.jacca… #JACCCardioOnc #CardioOnc #lymsm #HeartFailure
