Aaron Sverdlov: TKIs and the Real-World Balance Between Thrombosis and Bleeding

Aaron Sverdlov, Co-Director of the Newcastle Centre of Excellence in Cardio-Oncology at Hunter Medical Research Institute (HMRI), shared a post on LinkedIn about a paper he co-authored with colleagues published in the Journal of Thrombosis and Thrombolysis:

“New publication alert.

Happy to share our new review on tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) and the real-world balance between thrombosis and bleeding.

Why this matters (especially for interventional cardiologists):

  • Arterial risk: more pronounced with VEGFR and BCR-ABL TKIs – plan PCI and secondary prevention accordingly.
  • Bleeding risk: BTK inhibitors drive platelet-function issues – adapt DAPT/anticoagulation and peri-op plans.
  • What to do: baseline CV/bleeding risk, proactive risk-factor control, and MDT cardio-oncology workflows.

Led by our CardioOncology Fellow Lloyd Butel-Simoes and co-authored by the cardiovascular team from Hunter New England Local Health District and the International Cardio-Oncology Society Newcastle Center of Excellence in Cardio-Oncology.”
