NEW YORK, Oct. 17, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Informa Pharma Intelligence and The Alliance for Regenerative Medicine (ARM), the preeminent global advocate for gene therapy, cell therapy and the broader regenerative medicine sector, announced an expansion to their partnership to advance awareness and understanding of regenerative medicine and its potentially transformative impact on healthcare and society.
Informa Pharma Intelligence analysts and tools provide comprehensive insight into global clinical trials, drug development pipelines and the regenerative medicine marketplace. By incorporating Informa Pharma Intelligence’s knowledge of the regenerative medicine pipeline with ARM’s sector expertise, the two organizations will work together to bring critical understanding of the quickly advancing regenerative medicine field to foster research, development, investment and commercialization of treatments for patients worldwide.
While still rapidly evolving, regenerative medicine has made huge advances in recent years both in the United States and globally. This year, for the first time, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Novartis’ cell-based immuno-oncological CAR-T therapy, clearing a new treatment that has produced unprecedented results in pediatric and young adult patients with refractory/relapse acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Others in the industry will likely soon follow. Through the partnership, Informa Pharma Intelligence and ARM will work to educate those in the space and the broader public, in an effort to define the new field and broaden awareness of its immense value, potential to improve health outcomes and significant societal benefits.
Michael Hay, Head of Intelligence Products of Informa Pharma Intelligence, commented, “This is an exciting time for the regenerative medicine field, with new advancements happening rapidly. We have partnered with ARM for more than three years, and we welcome the opportunity to continue our collaboration with an organization as influential and forward-thinking as ARM. Our goal is to expand education and awareness to key stakeholders in the space, as well as the wider public who will benefit from these new treatments.”
Morrie Ruffin, Managing Director, ARM, added, “We have, for several years, partnered with Informa Pharma Intelligence, gaining access to their immense data assets and jointly building a robust resource to track performance of the field of regenerative medicine sector and help advance understanding and build awareness of its accomplishments.”
Informa Pharma Intelligence and ARM were together at the Cell & Gene Therapy Meeting on the Mesa, which place October 4-6. Coming up, Informa Pharma Intelligence and ARM will host a joint webinar on October 24 th to answer the question of what’s next after the CAR-T approval. Sign up to attend the free webinar here .
