Types of Activities We Support

Medical Education Grants

Funding provided by United Therapeutics to an independent third party for scientific or medical educational activities (either accredited or non-accredited) that are non-promotional and developed by the third party without influence or control from United Therapeutics.

Funding is available for the following medical education objectives:

  • Improve understanding of the pathophysiology, prevalence, and burden of illness of IPF. Recognize unmet needs, barriers to treatment uptake and tolerability challenges associated with currently available therapies, and potential role and mechanism of action for emerging therapies to IPF.
  • Understand how the presence of PH impacts outcomes of patients with ILD; enhance understanding of screening, timely diagnosis, and clinical management of PH-ILD and IPF. Understand patterns for transplant referral and evaluation.
  • Recognize the importance of routine and formal risk assessment in PAH patients and the triggers and timing of therapy escalation, particularly in special populations (eg, CTD patients), as well as the need to achieve low risk status or hemodynamic remission.
  • Understand the hemodynamics associated with PH and how different classes of therapies impact hemodynamic parameters.
  • Improve patient selection and management of adverse events associated with various PH and IPF therapies, particularly prostacyclin-class therapies, to increase persistence on therapy.
  • Evaluate the clinical data associated with therapeutic transitions in PAH and how they apply to clinical practice.
