Cardiac Biomarkers in Cardiovascular Clinical Trials: Caveats and Considerations

XTalks

Natriuretic peptides like N-terminal (NT)-pro hormone B type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), or BNP, are routinely used for acute and chronic heart failure. For safety endpoints, cardiac troponin — either high sensitivity or standard — are used as markers for safety and myocardial injury and toxicity.

CheckMate -577, a Phase 3 Trial Evaluating Opdivo (nivolumab) as Adjuvant Therapy for Patients with Resected Esophageal or Gastroesophageal Junction Cancer, Meets Primary Endpoint of Disease-Free Survival

The Pharma Data

1%) as determined by an FDA-approved test, with no EGFR or ALK genomic tumor aberrations. Patients with EGFR or ALK genomic tumor aberrations should have disease progression on FDA-approved therapy for these aberrations prior to receiving OPDIVO. Institute hormone replacement therapy for endocrinopathies as warranted.
