Understanding and identifying the unmet need of aggressive B-cell lymphomas is critical for positioning new therapies Aggressive B-cell lymphomas are a subset of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL) that encompass a number of neoplasms that include both precursor lymphoid...
Medlior Health Outcomes Research was engaged by Celgene Canada (now a subsidiary of Bristol-Myers Squibb Company) to examine the treatment landscape for patients with multiple myeloma (MM) and the effects of lenalidomide (REVLMID®) as an immunomodulatory imide drug for both newly-diagnosed MM patients and relapsed/refractory MM patients.
Medlior’s presentation focuses on a real-world evidence study sponsored by Amgen Inc. examining the management of patients with an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in Alberta, Canada. AMI is a leader in disease burden and death worldwide. In order to combat AMI, modifiable factors that lower cholesterol, specifically low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) are needed. Therapies designed to lower LDL-C, such as statins, also called lipid lowering therapies (LLT), are therefore important to understand the patterns of use and to what extent LDL-C is lowered. Medlior’s study utilized health system data to explore the patterns of LLT and the management of LDL-C levels in patients who experienced AMI.
