Estrogens used in women’s healthcare have been associated with increased risks of venous thromboembolism (VTE) and breast cancer. Estetrol (E4), an estrogen produced by the human fetal liver, has recently been approved for the first time as a new estrogenic component of a novel combined oral contraceptive (E4/drospirenone [DRSP]) for over a decade. In phase 3 studies, E4/DRSP showed good contraceptive efficacy, a predictable bleeding pattern, and a favorable safety and tolerability profile.

Hypercholesterolemia is mainly caused by abnormal lipoprotein metabolism and can increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. Angiopoietin-like protein 3 (ANGPTL3) can increase low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and other lipids by inhibiting lipoprotein lipase activity. Evinacumab is a monoclonal antibody against ANGPTL3, it can decrease levels of LDL-C and has shown potential benefit in patients with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH).

Melatonin preparations are emerging first-line pharmacotherapy for insomnia in children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), but quality, formulation, consistency, dosing, and limited long-term safety data are of concern. The recent approval of pediatric-appropriate prolonged-release melatonin (Ped-PRM) addresses these aspects.

Therapies combining either two immune check-point inhibitors (ICIs) or an ICI and a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) have been shown to improve overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS) and objective response rates (ORR) in metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC); moreover, unprecedented rates of complete remission (CR) have been reported.
