  1. Turbulent Future for Oncology. The nation’s cancer care system risks slipping into a socioeconomic vortex that threatens the ability to meet a growing demand for care, according to a report from a leading organization of cancer professionals.
  2. Newer Stents Fall Flat in Multivessel Disease. Surgery still beats stents in the modern drug-eluting iterations for multivessel coronary disease.
  3. Congress Pressures FDA to Finalize Opioid Guidance. The FDA will publish its long-awaited guidance on abuse-deterrent opioids by the end of June, in order to avoid a $20 million cut in funds to the commissioner’s office threatened by Congress.
  4. Noninferiority Trial Reporting Falls Short. Listings for most noninferiority trials on Clinicaltrials.gov fail to provide key information about the study designs, creating opportunities for sponsors to distort the results later on.
