According to a new study from Pitt Med published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology, women diagnosed with breast cancer who had regular screening mammograms every year were less likely to have late-stage cancer and had higher overall survival than those who received screening every other year or less often.

Since its approval in mid-2023, UPMC Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh has treated two individuals with Duchenne muscular dystrophy with the new #Elevidys gene therapy. "In June of 2023, the therapy was only approved for use in cases with specific gene mutations, and only in children 4 or 5 years of age, along with other criteria. But this just changed as of June of 2024 to expand therapy to all patients with DMD over 4 years of age and only excluding certain mutations over time as the evidence accrues from clinical trials and observational data in patients who have received the therapy. Gauging long-term efficacy will take time," said pediatric neurologist Hoda Z. Abdel-Hamid, MD. Learn more about this treatment: https://lnkd.in/ebjGWrYS
