Sacubitril/valsartan shows benefit over enalapril in heart failure caused by Chagas disease

In patients with heart failure (HF) caused by Chagas disease, sacubitril/valsartan was superior to enalapril for the composite primary endpoint, predominantly driven by a significant reduction in N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), according to late-breaking research presented in a Hot Line session today at ESC Congress 2025.

Early aspirin discontinuation safe after complete revascularization in acute MI

Among low-risk patients with acute MI who underwent early complete revascularization and received one month of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT), P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy was noninferior to continued DAPT for adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, while reducing bleeding risk.

Dormant tumor cells targeted to reduce breast cancer relapse

A first-of-its-kind, federally funded clinical trial has shown it's possible to identify breast cancer survivors who are at higher risk of their cancer coming back due to the presence of dormant cancer cells and to effectively treat these cells with repurposed, existing drugs.

In-hospital start of dapagliflozin shows no significant short-term benefit in heart failure patients

In-hospital initiation of dapagliflozin did not significantly reduce the short-term risk of cardiovascular death or worsening heart failure (HF) in patients admitted for HF, although positive effects were seen when combining trial data, according to late-breaking research presented in a Hot Line session today at ESC Congress 2025.

Shorter dual antiplatelet therapy may offer safety benefits in myocardial infarction patients

Three months of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) was associated with signals suggesting improved survival and lower bleeding risk than 12 months of DAPT, in a real-world all-comer population of patients with myocardial infarction (MI), according to late-breaking research presented in a Hot Line session today at ESC Congress 2025.

Adding aspirin raises cardiovascular events in high-risk CCS patients on anticoagulants

Adding aspirin increased the risk of cardiovascular events, death and major bleeding in high-risk patients with chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) who had prior stenting and were receiving long-term chronic oral anticoagulation (OAC), according to late-breaking research presented in a Hot Line session today at ESC Congress 2025 and simultaneously published in New England Journal of Medicine.
