Peter Libby: Managing Cardiovascular Risk in Clonal Hematopoiesis of Indeterminate Potential
Peter Libby, Mallinckrodt Professor of Medicine and Cardiovascular Specialist at Harvard Medical School and Brigham and Womens Hospital, shared a post on LinkedIn:
“What do we do to address cardiovascular risk in people with clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) in the absence of clinical trial data? In our CHIP clinic, we practice aggressive preventive cardiology tuned to the particular CHIP and traditional risk factor profile of our patients in a transparent, shared decision-making mode. We summarize some of our approach in this Primer in JACC Cardiooncology paper.
We built this experience with serial fellows who worked with me in CHIP clinic, each now faculty members: Amy Lin UCSF, Aeron Small MGB/Harvard, and Ohad Oren Cleveland Clinic, who took the lead in this report. I’m proud of their successes! Nicholas Chiu is my current fellow, joining this lineage. Now we need to work together to generate the data to fill the evidence gap in managing CHIP!”
