By GlobalDataThe initial scope of the agreement covers several indications in immunology and neurology in 15 countries.
The first solutions to transition to Aptar’s operation in North America, Europe/UK, Asia-Pacific, and Latin America are Cleo/Aby and Physio.me.
Cleo/Aby is a digital care companion app designed to assist individuals living with multiple sclerosis by providing disease information, symptom tracking, reminders related to treatment, and tailored self-care programmes.
Physio.me is a digital exercise companion offering at-home, customised exercises for patients with neuromuscular disorders, allowing them to measure and share progress with their care teams.
Furthermore, the collaboration may lead to the development and market introduction of new digital health solutions for managing conditions such as spinal muscular amyotrophy, Friedreich’s ataxia, and lupus in selected countries.
Last year, Biogen signed a licence and collaboration agreement with Alcyone Therapeutics for the development of an implantable medical device for intrathecal drug delivery.
