Background: Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a frequent complication in patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD); its occurrence results in significant morbidity and mortality. Currently approved treatment options for PH-ILD include inhaled prosta...

Background: Uncontrolled asthma remains a significant clinical challenge, often linked to impaired lung function and increased diaphragmatic workload. Recent studies have shown promising results using a triple inhaled therapy comprising beclomethason...

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Accurate determination of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation status is essential for selecting patients eligible for tyrosine kinase inhibito...

Respiratory infections and chronic lung disease are major contributors to morbidity in children. Aztreonam lysine for inhalation (AZLI) delivers high local antibiotic concentrations while limiting systemic exposure; however, its safety in younger pat...
