Enabling the Future of Cell & Gene Therapies through Non Proprietary Patient-Owned Data Collection

whitePaper | March 16, 2021

Cell and gene therapies have emerged as a new treatment paradigm, and with them has come the potential to alter the course of many rare diseases. In many cases, there is an opportunity to correct the underlying dysfunction with a one-time administration of a therapy and provide either a functional cure or a substantial improvement in health outcomes. In other cases, long term symptom relief will be the primary therapeutic objective. Some of these indications may require more than one dose to achieve continued symptom relief and scientists and companies are working on technologies that will enable the use of a repeat dose.
