Panelists discuss the potential role of emerging treatments in the progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF) landscape if approved, exploring how they could address key unmet needs, improve patient outcomes, and optimize healthcare resource utilization.

Panelists provide an overview of emerging therapies for progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF), highlighting the latest developments and potential treatment options.

Panelists discuss the key gaps and unmet needs in current management strategies for progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF) and how ongoing research and collaborative efforts may help address these challenges.

Anna Podolanczuk, M.D., M.S., discusses the key unmet needs in diagnosing idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF), and how artificial intelligence (AI) could play a transformative role in enabling earlier detection of these diseases in the future.

Anna-Maria Hoffmann-Vold, M.D., Ph.D., discusses the current treatment landscape for progressive pulmonary fibrosis, highlighting nonpharmacological and pharmacological options to manage the disease.

Anna Podolanczuk, M.D., M.S., discusses how biomarker testing plays a role in diagnosing idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF), helping to distinguish these diseases from other respiratory conditions, as well as the role of biopsy and the histopathological features commonly seen in these diseases.

Anna-Maria Hoffmann-Vold, M.D., Ph.D., discusses how progressive pulmonary fibrosis is diagnosed in clinical practice, the barriers hindering early diagnosis, strategies to overcome these challenges and the critical role of early detection and intervention in improving patient outcomes and reducing long-term healthcare costs.

Anna Podolanczuk, M.D., M.S., discusses how the differential diagnosis for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF) is approached, the importance of early diagnosis and why these diseases are often misdiagnosed.

Anna Podolanczuk, M.D., M.S., discusses how key epidemiological trends in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF), including changes in incidence and prevalence, contribute to the growing economic burden that patients with these conditions face.

Anna Podolanczuk, M.D., M.S., discusses how the mortality rates for patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF) are impacted by comorbidities, including the role of autoimmune diseases in the pathophysiology of these conditions.

Anna-Maria Hoffmann-Vold, M.D., Ph.D., discusses the most common symptoms of progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF), how they typically evolve and the impact of PPF on patients’ daily activities and quality of life as the disease progresses.

Anna-Maria Hoffmann-Vold, M.D., Ph.D., discusses progressive pulmonary fibrosis, its primary causes and the key risk factors contributing to its development and progression.

Seemal Desai, M.D., FAAD, discusses how effective patient education and engagement strategies, combined with emerging telemedicine and digital health technologies, enhance vitiligo care delivery, disease monitoring and patient self-management capabilities.

Anna Podolanczuk, M.D., M.S., discusses how different types of interstitial lung diseases and their main risk factors contribute to the development of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF), as well as how these diseases present with common symptoms and progress over time.

The panelist discusses how vitiligo’s psychological and social impacts significantly affect patients’ quality of life and treatment adherence, necessitating a holistic approach that addresses both physical symptoms and psychosocial support needs.

Seemal Desai, M.D., FAAD, discusses how managed care organizations can improve access to advanced vitiligo treatments through updated formulary decisions and treatment algorithms while addressing insurance coverage barriers and balancing treatment aggressiveness with value-based care considerations.

Seemal Desai, M.D., FAAD, discusses how treatment safety and effectiveness must be carefully evaluated through monitoring clinical outcomes and patient-reported measures, with special consideration given to unique challenges in vulnerable populations like children, pregnant women and those with comorbidities, where treatment approaches require careful modification to balance efficacy and safety concerns.

This webinar on "What the Trump Presidency Will Mean for U.S. Healthcare and Managed Care" includes panelists Lindsay Greenleaf, J.D., MBA; Ryann Hill, M.P.H. and Patrick Cooney, discussing possible changes to healthcare policies and programs under the Trump administration, including the future of the Inflation Reduction and Affordable Care Acts, PBM reform and Medicare Advantage.

Kenan R. Omurtag, M.D., discusses how addressing unique needs of LGBTQ patients involves tailored fertility treatments and legal considerations, while emphasizing the importance of early fertility preservation counseling and expedited procedures for cancer patients, including cryopreservation of eggs, sperm or embryos prior to potentially gonadotoxic treatments.

The panelist discusses how vaginal insert and intramuscular progesterone supplementation can support early pregnancy by enhancing endometrial receptivity, maintaining the uterine lining and providing crucial hormonal support during the luteal phase and early weeks of gestation, thereby potentially increasing the chances of successful implantation and ongoing pregnancy in assisted reproductive technology cycles.

Kenan R. Omurtag, M.D., discusses how various ovulation stimulation treatments, including letrozole and gonadotropins, work through different mechanisms to promote follicle development and egg release, with considerations such as efficacy, side effects and risk of multiple pregnancies influencing the choice of treatment for individual patients.

The panelist discusses how emerging targeted therapies like Janus kinase inhibitors and combination treatment approaches are transforming vitiligo management, with treatment selection guided by disease patterns, progression rates and individual patient response, while acknowledging the need for systematic assessment and alternative strategies for treatment-resistant cases.

The panelist discusses how intracytoplasmic sperm injection can be used in conjunction with in vitro fertilization (IVF) to directly inject a single sperm into an egg, thereby increasing fertilization rates and improving chances of successful pregnancy, particularly in cases of severe male factor infertility or previous IVF fertilization failure.

Kenan R. Omurtag, M.D., discusses how less invasive fertility treatments like lifestyle modifications, ovulation induction and intrauterine insemination are typically attempted before progressing to IVF, which is often reserved for patients with severe male factor infertility, tubal factor infertility, advanced maternal age or those who have not succeeded with other fertility treatments.

Seemal Desai, M.D., FAAD, discusses how immune system dysregulation and genetic variants intersect to trigger vitiligo development while highlighting diagnostic challenges including identifying disease subtypes and distinguishing vitiligo from other depigmentation disorders.
