Die Highlights vom Kongress des American College of Cardiology 2024

Im April diskutierten die Herz-Kreislauf-Spezialisten aus der ganzen Welt auf dem  Kongress des American College of Cardiology (ACC) u.a. neue Therapieansätze bei akutem Myokardinfarkt, koronarer Herzerkrankung, kardiogenem Schock oder Aortenklappenstenose. In unserem Kongress-Dossier haben wir für Sie Berichte über die „Late-Breaking Trials“ und andere wichtige Studien zusammengestellt.

Abstract

Clinical trials are used to determine the efficacy and safety of a medication prior to approval for commercial use and to influence the prescribing habits of clinicians. The lack of uniformity in the diagnostic thresholds used in clinical trials on osteoporosis makes it difficult to compare the results of these trials. The use of placebo, different anatomical sites, T-score cutoff points, and risk factors precludes any meaningful comparison being made between the outcomes of clinical trials. Finally, the lack of uniform reporting format makes it difficult to retrieve important information to compare one medication to another. Because the diagnostic thresholds used affect the outcomes of these trials, health care providers need to be aware of these criteria to determine whether the results of a particular clinical trial can be applied to a particular patient.

• DeMets DL and Califf RM: A historical perspective on clinical trials innovation and leadership. JAMA 2011, 305(7):713–714. This article details the development of clinical research from its initial public health orientation to an industry-controlled business, often with little to no academic input. As this shift has occurred, trial methodologies have become increasingly influenced by imperatives to develop new approved products while meeting regulatory requirements. The authors call for renewed academic involvement in RCTs to adequately address public health needs in a profit-oriented system.

This article describes the FREEDOM trial, which randomly assigned osteoporotic women between the ages of 60 and 90 years to subcutaneous injections of 60 mg of denosumab or placebo twice yearly for a period of 3 years. The investigators concluded that this dosage of denosumab was associated with a reduction in the risk of vertebral, nonvertebral, and hip fractures in women with osteoporosis.
