Donate Blood, Save Lives!
Blood is not only a lifesaving resource for transfusions, but also a critical starting material for many cell and gene therapies, microbiology, virology, oncology, vaccine development, toxicology, and immunotherapies. To make these therapies work, high-quality blood samples are used to develop treatments for various indications such as CAR-T cell therapy for cancer (e.g., Kymriah, Yescarta), stem cell therapy for regenerative medicine (e.g., cord blood stem cells for bone marrow transplantation), and gene therapies (e.g., Luxturna and Zolgensma).
Through the integration of RWD at various stages, Maxis Clinical Sciences helps in the development of cell and gene therapies by providing RWE services that include data analytics, regulatory support, HEOR, patient outcomes tracking, personalized medicine, etc. for the development and commercialization of these therapies.
It is interesting to observe how every component of blood contributes to life-saving treatments and how RWE can be embedded throughout the clinical drug development process.
Let's recognize the importance of blood donation and its far-reaching impact on healthcare innovation!
