Are you involved in clinical development and wondering how to engage with patients to understand unmet needs to shape research priorities and clinical trial design?
Are you focussed on communicating clinical study results to patients in plain-language?
Do you need to work with patients or patient organizations on your HTA/value dossier regulatory submission or your real-world evidence plan?
Or perhaps you need to co-create content with patients for a patient support program such as an adherence strategy.
No matter what your role is in medical affairs, or what stage in the product lifecycle you are involved in, it is likely that you need to engage with patients and patient organizations.

This covers the following topics:
- How to find patients and/or patient organizations to partner with
- Why you should consider patient engagement at different stages of the product lifecycle
- Different approaches to engage with patients (surveys, focus groups/advisory boards, social media listening, co-development of content etc) and when they are appropriate
- Practical tools you need to engage with patients, such as FMV calculator, sample legal agreements & collaboration prioritization tools
- Criteria to consider to ensure engagement with patients is optimal.
