Novartis’ Post

We are honored that Novartis has been ranked first in the 2024 Access to Medicine Index. This recognition is a testimony of our commitment to improving access to breakthrough medicines for people around the world, regardless of their location or socio-economic status. Our commitment to patients is at the core of our Code of Ethics, where we reinforce our responsibility to systematically integrate access strategies into how we research, develop and deliver all our new medicines globally. The Code of Ethics shapes the decisions we make, and the actions we take daily. As you can see from the assessment criteria of the Index, having strong commitments to responsible business practices and effective controls to promote ethical conduct and mitigate risks are an important part of the assessment. We are grateful that our efforts in this regard were acknowledged. We will never be perfect but we take our commitments and our approach to integrated assurance very seriously.

At Everyone.org, we’re lucky to have nailed our culture from the start. Finding out-of-the-box solutions for patients' needs is literally (and we're using this word correctly) what we do every day. We work as a team, learn as a team, and stay laser-focused on the reason we exist - to create fair medicine access. But not everyone across the Pharma industry is this lucky. Legacy mindsets and environments where experimentation is discouraged have no place in the future of healthcare. Thankfully, we're not the only ones who think so. This Thursday, we're joining a discussion panel at Pharmageddon 2024, focusing on Winning the Culture Wars. Join us and think along towards a future where egos aren't the stakeholders, patients are. https://lnkd.in/dQC53CkF #medicineaccess  #medicallife  #medicaleducation  #pharma  #equality #pharmageddon2024 #amsterdamevents #nl

Attending ISPOR? Make sure you also register for the Patient-Centered Research Summit on Sunday 5 May. Don’t miss important discussions on impactful patient engagement and patient experience data collection to elevate patient outcomes. The discipline of patient-insight-driven medicines development is recognized a vital driver of innovation. By encouraging the measurement of patient engagement, we can understand the areas of greatest impact – to support meaningful focus, empowering patient advisors to make a difference and supporting sustainable value generation for the industry.   At the ISPOR Patient-Centered Research Summit, I will discuss our Patient Engagement Impact Measurement Framework that we co-created with a patient council. A standardized approach across the pharmaceutical industry would support evidence generation and best practice sharing, so join this session to see how you could adapt and apply this approach to your own work. You’ll also hear examples of the value of patient input into clinical trials. Hope to see you there, if not, get in touch to request the presentation. https://ow.ly/LGtr50QRuuB #ISPORSummit #healthcare #PatientEngagement #PatientCenteredResearch

❓ Does involving patients in drug development really make a difference? 🔍 Involving patients isn’t just a trend—it’s a game-changer. Patient insights help shape clinical trials, making them more relevant and ensuring therapies meet real-world needs. At 3D-PharmXchange, we’re committed to working closely with patient advocacy groups and innovators to co-create treatments that genuinely impact patient lives. 💡 Curious about how patient advocacy is driving progress, especially in rare disease research?

At Traverse Health, we’re tackling the data gaps that exist in the industry by partnering with top hospitals and expanding into new markets. This gives us unique access to diverse patient data that’s in high demand by pharma, biotech, and regulators—helping to bring better treatments to the people who need them most. Curious to learn more about how we’re making this happen? Check out our founder's interview with Leapfunder here: https://lnkd.in/dHYkMP3m

Achieving greater patient-centricity in medical research and drug development poses a challenge. Fragmented industry approaches and silo structures are one of the big challenges. A higher-level roadmap is needed to guide the industry towards a patient-first approach, emphasising community engagement and inclusive opportunities for patient participation throughout the entire process of drug development. Ultimately, adopting a patient-first mentality is crucial for realising actionable approaches to greater patient-centricity in clinical research.

Progress driving change for a healthier and more inclusive future was evident at Reuters Pharma & Patient USA in Boston the other week. #REPatientUSA While “patient centered”, “patient focused”, and “patient driven” are hot terms in the life sciences industry, the processes and capabilities needed to collaborate with patient communities, generate insights, and develop solutions to drive better health outcomes, quality of life and longevity, remain immature and siloed. Truly integrating patient voices in biomedical research, clinical development, and along the entire regulatory approval and commercialization pathway is challenging for many organizations. This is because functions including patient advocacy, marketing, insights & analytics, medical affairs, patient experience, public affairs, CSR and others interpret and operationalize patient engagement differently. As an industry that conventionally regards patients as research subjects, there is a lot of work to do! 🙏 Here are some highlights from just a few of the speakers who are championing progress in their organizations and sharing learnings: Jon Zwinski of Chiesi USA, Inc. on being a B corp “we care about our social impact and we put patient impact on the same level as profitability” Negelle Morris of Novo Nordisk “The way we embed a diverse lens on culture and how people of different cultures engage with these diseases is essential” and “We measure success by the number of patients we serve” Desiree Priestley of Otsuka Pharmaceutical Companies (U.S.) “Technology alone cannot solve all the issues out there, high touch is necessary” Faye Feller of Geron Corporation “We have a debt to patients who supported us in clinical trials” and “There is a disconnect between the literature and the data we have gathered over the years which doesn’t align with the way we look at populations now” Monique G., Lupus patient advocate “Individuals who call themselves patients are equal stakeholders” Carla Tardif, Family Reach “We need to make financial health a part of the standard of care” Amy Akers Teets, Sanofi on shifting from talking about patient centricity, to “integrated patient engagement" and building an “actionable cycle of patient insights along the entire value chain” Inder Singh, Takeda Oncology on the expanded role of insights and analytics and “connecting the dots” Carmen White, Pfizer on what it takes to connect with and serve under-represented patients #patientengagement #pharma #patientvoice #actionableinsights
