Title: I Change Adherence & Raise Expectations
Brief Summary: The iCARE study, a clustered-randomized controlled trial, is evaluating an adherence promotion intervention for adolescents that Cystic Fibrosis (CF) care teams will implement. Half the centers will receive the Comprehensive Adherence Program (CAP) for 2 years. CAP consists of training in the CF My Way program (a validated problem-solving adherence promotion intervention). The other half of the centers will receive CAP in year 2 of the study. Participants are patients age 11-20 years old who are diagnosed with CF and have been prescribed at least one of the following medications for at least 6 months prior to signing the informed consent: azithromycin, hypertonic saline, Pulmozyme®, TOBI®, or inhaled compounded tobramycin. Rate of refilling prescriptions is the primary outcome with lung function decline rates, exacerbation rates, and patient reported measures including health related quality of life and CF knowledge and skills, as secondary outcomes.

A central goal of this study is to test the effectiveness of the comprehensive adherence program (CAP), described above, versus standard care (SC) for adolescents and young adults seen in outpatient CF clinics.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patient is planning to change care teams within the next 2 years
* Patient is seen at a satellite clinic
* Patient is on the lung transplant list (Note: participation in this study will not delay or exclude patient from being placed on the transplant list in the future or receiving a transplant once enrolled in the study)
C: Inclusion Criteria:

* CF as diagnosed by:

  1. Documented sweat chloride greater than or equal to 60 mEq/L by quantitative pilocarpine iontophoresis test; or
  2. Two well-characterized genetic mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene; or
  3. Abnormal nasal potential difference with accompanying symptoms characteristic of CF.
* PA present in expectorated sputum or throat swab culture at Screening.
* Participants must have received three or more courses of TIS within the previous 12 months.
* Participants on chronic azithromycin must have had no change in regimen in the previous 3 months and must have had a need for TIS and/or additional antipseudomonal therapy since initiation of azithromycin.
* Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) between (and including) 25% and 75% predicted at Screening.
* Ability to perform reproducible pulmonary function tests.
* Arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2) greater than or equal to 90% on room air at Screening.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Current use of oral corticosteroids in doses exceeding the equivalent of 10 mg prednisone a day or 20 mg prednisone every other day.
* History of sputum or throat culture swab yielding Burkholderia cepacia in the past 2 years.
* History of daily continuous oxygen supplementation or requirement for more than 2 liters/minute at night.
* Administration of any investigational drug or device within 28 days of Screening (Visit 1) or within 6 half-lives of the investigational drug (whichever was longer).
* Known local or systemic hypersensitivity to monobactam antibiotics.
* Inability to tolerate inhalation of a short acting Beta-2 agonist.
* Changes in antimicrobial, bronchodilator, anti-inflammatory, or corticosteroid medications within 7 days before Screening or between Screening and the next visit.
* Changes in physiotherapy technique or schedule within 7 days before Screening or between Screening and the next visit.
* History of lung transplantation.
* A chest X-ray indicating abnormal findings at Screening or within the previous 90 days.
* Abnormal renal or hepatic function or serum chemistry at Screening (aspartate aminotransferase \[AST\], alanine aminotransferase \[ALT\] greater than 5 times the upper limit of normal range; Creatinine greater than 2 times the upper limit of normal range).
* Positive pregnancy test at Screening.
* Female of childbearing potential who was lactating or in the opinion of the investigator was not practicing acceptable birth control.
* Any serious or active medical or psychiatric illness, which in the opinion of the investigator would have interfered with participant treatment, assessment, or compliance with the protocol.
D: Inclusion Criteria:

* Confirmed diagnosis of CF (sweat tests/genotype)
* The subject, or their legal guardian for children under 18 years old, must provide written informed consent.
* The subject must be in stable clinical condition at the time of and for a period of 14 days prior to their recruitment into the study.
* Age \> 6 years old
* FEV1 \> 40% predicted for height, age and gender
* Proven or anticipated compliance with therapy or study protocol
* Regular attendee at a Cystic Fibrosis Clinic (\> 2 visits per year)
* Able to reproducibly perform lung function tests (spirometry)
* Relatively stable nutritional status (\< 2 kg weight loss in last 6 months and \< 5 kg weight loss in last year)

Exclusion Criteria:

* Requiring home oxygen (pO2 \<55mmHg or pCO2 \>50mmHg) or assisted ventilation.
* Considered "terminally ill" or listed for transplantation (either lung or liver). Subjects that are listed for transplant after being enrolled in the trial are eligible to continue in the trial.
* Subjects colonised with Burkholderia cepacia. However, if a subject becomes colonised with B. cepacia during the trial, they should continue in the trial. Subjects should be considered to be B. cepacia positive if they have had even a single lifetime isolate. In these subjects, spirometry should be measured on a dedicated spirometer.
* Cigarette smoker.
* Exposure to investigational drugs within the past 30 days.
