Roger Jeffs: Thank you, Jason. Good morning, everyone and thank you for joining us. The third quarter was marked by continued and positive steps to change the future of the company, the PH market and the lives of patients we are committed to serve. We have built a portfolio that we believe includes the most promising products in the fastest-growing area of the PH marketplace in treprostinil for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension or PAH; and pulmonary hypertension associated with interstitial lung disease or PH-ILD. Many of you know already that YUTREPIA, our dry powder formulation of treprostinil using a low effort, simple-to-use pocket-sized dry powder inhaler has the potential to be the first and best choice when adding the prostacyclins to a patient's treatment regimen.

In support of this, a recent summary from our open-label clinical experience shows how durable and titratable YUTREPIA treatment can be, where we've treated patients for as long as 5.5 years and have titrated to doses now equivalent to 30 breaths of Tyvaso four times per day. I want to emphasize those matters, as it has been demonstrated across all routes of prostacyclin use that higher doses equate with better patient outcomes. YUTREPIA's ability to dose higher has the potential to significantly broaden and improve upon the therapeutic index and utility of inhaled treprostinil administration as it currently exists. At the same time, we've seen promising early evidence of clear benefits in our sustained-release inhaled treprostinil program called L606.
