The purpose of this study is to find out what causes kidney disease in people with CF. The investigators will study biomarkers in the blood and urine that can either predict who is at risk or detect kidney damage early before it becomes permanent. The study will compare these markers in people with CF over time and during the treatment of lung flare-ups. It will also compare the blood and urine samples obtained from people without CF. The comparison aims to better understand the impact of cystic fibrosis and its treatment on the kidneys, as well as to develop improved methods for preventing, diagnosing, and treating kidney issues associated with CF.

This phase III trial studies how well lenalidomide and dexamethasone works with or without daratumumab in treating patients with high-risk smoldering myeloma. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as lenalidomide and dexamethasone, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as daratumumab, may induce changes in the body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving lenalidomide and dexamethasone with daratumumab may work better in treating patients with smoldering myeloma.

The Pompe Registry is a global, multicenter, international, longitudinal, observational, and voluntary program for patients with Pompe disease, designed to track the disease's natural history and outcomes in patients, both treated and not. Data from the Registry are also used to fulfill various global regulatory commitments, to support product development/reimbursement, and for other research and non-research related purposes. The objectives of the Registry are: - To enhance understanding of the variability, progression, identification, and natural history of Pompe disease, with the ultimate goal of better guiding and assessing therapeutic intervention. - To assist the Pompe medical community with the development of recommendations for monitoring patients, and to provide reports on patient outcomes, to optimize patient care. - To characterize the Pompe disease population. - To evaluate the long-term effectiveness of alglucosidase alfa.

Rationale: LTI-03 is an experimental medication breathed into the lungs using an inhaler. It is being studied for the treatment of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF). IPF is a progressive, fatal lung disease caused by the death of lung cells involved in oxygen uptake and by progressive fibrosis (scarring) of the lungs. As the disease progresses, patients experience loss of lung function and increased breathing problems. LTI-03 is hypothesized to treat IPF by protecting and restoring the function of the oxygen uptake cells and by controlling lung fibrosis which may result in improving lung scarring. The purpose of this research is to evaluate LTI-03 including: its safety, whether it causes side effects, whether it improves lung scarring, and whether it improves IPF symptoms. LTI-03 will be compared to placebo in patients diagnosed with IPF within the last 5 years. Patients on a stable dose of nintedanib, pirfenidone, or nerandomilast (if available by prescription) may participate. Trial Design: This is a Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center study that includes a 28-day Screening Period, a 24-week Treatment Period, and 4-week Follow-up Period. Study Assessments: Up to 9 visits to the study clinic will be required. Safety and tolerability will be evaluated with the following assessments: physical examination; collection of vital sign data (heart rate, blood pressure, respiratory rate and peripheral oxygen saturation [SpO2] via pulse oximetry); heart data collected by 12-lead electrocardiogram; and collection of blood samples for safety laboratory tests. In addition, participants will be asked about any adverse events (side effects) they have experienced between clinic visits, if they have changed any medications, and if they are able to properly use their study drug inhaler. Participants will undergo a lung function test (spirometry) at every visit, which will be used to evaluate both safety and efficacy. Another test measuring the diffusion capacity of the lungs for carbon monoxide (DLCO) will be required at Screening only. Blood samples will also be collected at each visit to measure disease biomarkers. At select visits patients will be asked to complete the Living with Pulmonary Fibrosis questionnaire to evaluate their IPF symptoms. Participants will also undergo a specialized lung scan (HRCT) at Baseline and at the End of Treatment to measure changes in lung fibrosis. Interventions: LTI-03 and placebo are provided in powder-filled capsules that participants will self- administer using an inhaler. Placebo capsules look like LTI-03 capsules but have no active ingredients. Approximately 120 participants will be randomly assigned in a blinded manner to one of study drug treatment groups.
