    Send us a textWhy do we wait until we're severely unwell before seeking help? In this thought-provoking episode, I'm joined by Eva Papadopoulou, a mental health professional and expert in digital and AI-enabled healthcare solutions, to explore the transformative potential of preventative mental healthcare.Eva reveals the stark reality of our current healthcare systems - less than 10% of budgets are allocated to prevention, despite evidence showing preventative approaches lead to better outcomes and cost savings. Using dental care as a compelling example, she illustrates how cultural shifts can transform how we approach healthcare. "We take care of our mind and body before it breaks, not after," Eva explains, offering a vision where mental wellbeing is nurtured proactively rather than repaired reactively.We delve into key areas ripe for preventative intervention, including youth mental health (with most conditions developing before age 25) and workplace wellbeing, where burnout and absenteeism cost businesses billions annually. Technology emerges as a powerful enabler through apps, wearables, and AI systems that can detect early warning signs and deliver personalized support at scale. Eva emphasizes that successful health tech must be co-designed with users and integrated seamlessly into clinical pathways, while better health education is essential to help people interpret their health data meaningfully.The conversation culminates with Eva's powerful vision for healthcare's future: shifting from short-term thinking to long-term investment that prioritizes prevention over crisis management. "Invest in the future instead of firefighting in the present," she urges, inviting listeners to imagine a society where understanding and maintaining mental wellbeing becomes as routine as brushing our teeth.

    From Lab to Patient: Why Vector Design Makes or Breaks Cell Therapies with Alan Griffith

    Play Episode Listen Later Mar 26, 2025 56:22 Transcription Available


    Send us a textVectors are the unsung heroes of cell and gene therapy—molecular couriers that transport therapeutic genes into human cells to treat disease. But as Alan Griffith, Head of Global Operations at Vector Builder reveals, creating these sophisticated delivery vehicles is far more complex than most realize.Drawing from over a decade of experience developing gene therapies before joining the CDMO sector, Griffith offers rare insight into what makes manufacturing these therapies so challenging. Vector design emerges as the critical yet underappreciated factor determining success or failure. "The fundamental sequence and vector composition itself is so fundamental to manufacturability," Griffith explains, noting how seemingly minor elements can dramatically impact production at scale. This knowledge has evolved painfully over the past decade, with clinical holds and manufacturing failures teaching hard lessons.The relationship between therapy developers and contract manufacturers proves equally crucial. Rather than transactional exchanges, successful partnerships require deep collaboration and shared risk. "Working with a CDMO is like dancing with someone you don't know," Griffith observes, emphasizing how Vector Builder aims to understand diseases and vector compositions thoroughly rather than simply executing manufacturing orders.Cost remains perhaps the greatest challenge facing cell and gene therapies. While small molecule drugs might be considered expensive at $10,000 per dose, that figure would be remarkably affordable for gene therapies. Strategies to address this include better vector design to reduce manufacturing failures, more targeted delivery requiring smaller doses, and challenging the "one-and-done" assumption that has proven more complex in reality as expression often diminishes over time.Looking ahead, Griffith sees complementary roles for both viral vectors and emerging non-viral delivery systems like lipid nanoparticles and exosomes. He predicts viral vectors will continue to dominate certain applications for decades due to their unmatched effectiveness, while non-viral approaches may offer manufacturing advantages and potentially lower costs.Cell and gene therapies are revolutionary treatments with vectors serving as "molecular couriers" that deliver genetic materials to target cells, but manufacturing these therapies presents significant challenges in scaling, cost, and regulatory compliance.________Reach out to Ivanna RosendalJoin the conversation on our LinkedIn page

    Send us a textThe untapped potential of electronic health records has long been recognized in clinical research, but extracting meaningful insights from this treasure trove of data has remained an elusive challenge—until now.Vish Srivastava, founder of Century Health, reveals how artificial intelligence is revolutionizing real-world evidence by unlocking critical patient data trapped in EHRs. Traditional patient registries that once took a decade to amass just 1,000 patients can now be created with unprecedented efficiency through AI-powered data extraction. The breakthrough lies in advanced language models that can interpret unstructured clinical notes, transforming them into structured, analyzable data points while maintaining patient privacy.This technological revolution has profound implications across the drug development lifecycle. In multiple sclerosis research, analyzing 10+ years of longitudinal patient data has illuminated disease progression patterns beyond relapses, informing the next generation of treatments. For approved medications like GLP-1s, real-world evidence is uncovering potential applications in conditions ranging from metabolic disorders to neurodegenerative diseases, potentially fast-tracking label expansions that would traditionally require years of additional clinical trials.The vision is transformative: reducing the $2.6 billion, 12-year journey of drug development to a fraction of that time while ensuring treatments reach the right patients faster. While Century Health initially focuses on gastroenterology, neurology, and rheumatology in the US market, the underlying technology promises to revolutionize clinical research globally. As Vish notes, "It feels like we can create dramatically better outcomes for patients if we can just make the data that's already collected from their care accessible and actionable."________Reach out to Ivanna RosendalJoin the conversation on our LinkedIn page

Many of the cons can be mitigated by the third option that Ravi suggests - renting the infrastructure. This enables the biotech to keep control with the manufacturing process and keep experimenting, while avoiding the upfront investment in the infrastructure that may change. We also dive into the compliance of the facilities, and how outsourcing the quality assurance of the facilities themselves can allow the biotech's to focus on the production process and science. Even though the clean rooms for the different companies are in the same facilities, there is no exchange of air or supplies between the rooms - and also limited exchange of ideas between the individual production lines due to confidentiality. As a small biotech it is easy to fall into the trap of going overboard with GMP regulation adherence. And how GMP stamina is necessary to know where to draw the line of sufficient quality. Guest:Ravi Samavedamhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/ravi-samavedam-65a8345/ Azzurhttps://azzur.com/ ________Reach out to Sam Parnell and Ivanna RosendalJoin the conversation on our LinkedIn page

We start out by exploring how CRO contracting usually happens for biotechs, where clinical trials are typically outsourced to CROs. Biotech outsourcing is especially tricky, because in especially smaller companies, there may not be competencies to handle a sudden increase of people working for the company by adding a partner to the organization.   There are several models for collaborating with vendors - from a turnkey project, where you just “hand over the key” to a vendor, and wait for the results - to a close explorative collaboration, where the partner is basically a part of your organization. We discuss the difference in services and pricing that is on the table for big pharmaceutical companies and biotechs, exploring the dynamics of the market and collaboration models.There is no ideal CRO for a biotech - it all depends on what is needed, and how a collaboration can be established. Leif provides examples of great collaborations between CROs and biotech companies - where processes, culture and contracts all meshed. The patient stands to benefit from successful collaboration between sponsors and CROs. The trials can be executed more smoothly and drugs can make it to market more rapidly.  Lastly we discuss if the pharmaceutical value chain could be decentralized in general, with companies like PHARALL brokering different parts of the value chain into a coherent whole. Guest:Leif Kusehttps://www.linkedin.com/in/leif-kuse-32042411/PHARALLhttps://pharall.de/ ________Reach out to Sam Parnell and Ivanna RosendalJoin the conversation on our LinkedIn page

    This week we speak to Tirrell Payton, Managing Partner at Nooma Group Consulting, about mindset in life sciences. We speak about how there is a disconnect between the level of risk willingness among the top levels in organizations and middle managers. Middle managers are often afraid to make a mistake - and become the “permafrost layer” where change has a tough time to take root. We also speak about how institutional storytelling about past failures in a company can hinder people to try new things. These stories can act as invisible guardrails that limit what can be tried in an organization. Without being actual current constraints. Stepping into the actual power and possibilities that each individual has in a life sciences company can foster innovation. Optimizing a single piece of technology or process step of the clinical trial value chain does not provide the benefits often promised. And you cannot solve people problems with technology or process solutions.We speak about how remote work in life sciences worked really well during the pandemic. But that it somehow stopped working. This is in fact a well understood phenomenon, where we initially could ride on the connections created pre-pandemic: Now as teams have experienced churn, people can no longer rely on that personal connection. .And remote connection does not substitute the connections forged in person. Clinical trials often consist of people working for different organizations - like sponsors and CROs - who still need to gel together to do good work. To make this work, you need to be intentional to make this work. A lack of teamwork is often the root cause for poor performance in a clinical trial. We speak about the key challenges in pharma right now, and how companies are shifting towards rare dieseases. And how the current toolkit we have does not suit the problem. Guest:Tirrell Paytonhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/tirrellpayton/ Nooma Grouphttps://www.noomagroup.com/  ________Reach out to Sam Parnell and Ivanna RosendalJoin the conversation on our LinkedIn page

    This week we speak to Philip Russmeyer, Founder & CEO of Fitfile, about the promises that true data anonymization holds for transforming clinical trials. We dive into the differences between tokenization, anonymization and pseudonymisation of data. And how the difference is whether individuals can ever be identified or if the data is masked with a token that can potentially be removed. The risk of secondary use of data that has been tokenized has held back research and data sharing between healthcare and life sciences. One of the reasons is that collecting consent from individuals costs about 400 USD per consent.One of the downsides of anonymization is that data cannot be unified across sources for an individual to get a full picture of health data. We speak about the differences between US and EU attitudes and legislation about personal data protection and how these are converging towards stronger privacy protection. For good reason, since personal health data is worth 10x more on the dark web compared to financial data. Collection of consent also matters in the sense that 80-90% of a trial is still delayed due to longer recruitment timelines than anticipated. That can be reduced if the trial protocol rests on a larger volume of anonymized relevant data.Anonymized data can also serve as a larger and more ethical control arm for clinical trials. Same goes for long-term follow up of clinical trials and the potential to re-use data collected once in additional trials.   We speak about the siloed nature of health data between healthcare and life sciences and how Fitfile attempts to work end-to-end between the entire data creation lifecycle. Which is not always simple, but optimises the use of health data.  Guest:https://www.linkedin.com/in/philiprussmeyer/ Fitfilehttps://www.linkedin.com/company/fitfile/ Notes: GPDPR Program of the NHS: https://digital.nhs.uk/data-and-information/data-collections-and-data-sets/data-collections/general-practice-data-for-planning-and-research European Journal of Human Genetics: https://www.nature.com/ejhg/ ADPPA:https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/house-bill/8152/text ________Reach out to Sam Parnell and Ivanna RosendalJoin the conversation on our LinkedIn page

They would not need to visit sites as often. That would make it easier to be a trial participant, and increase the diversity of clinical trial participants. That in turn would lead to better ecological validity of the data.We also speak about how a virtual ward is analogous to decentralised trials and how some of the data collected in a virtual ward setting could be used for clinical trials - potentially reducing the scale and complexity of clinical trials in the future.  Connecting the healthcare system and the clinical research setting could mean that we can re-use the data collected in one or the other setting.Guest:Samuel Ewinghttps://www.linkedin.com/in/samuelewing/Docclahttps://www.linkedin.com/company/doccla/ Notes:Digital endpoint approvalhttps://www.clinicalresearchnewsonline.com/news/2023/02/16/a-long-time-coming-on-digital-endpoints Digital Medicine Initiativehttps://dimesociety.org/________Reach out to Sam Parnell and Ivanna RosendalJoin the conversation on our LinkedIn page

    This week we host Christian Born Djurhuus, who is a physician by training, a self-proclaimed geek and has had an impressive career in life sciences in the intersections between drug development, leadership and technology. We speak about how the waterfall mentality is prevalent in life sciences, where specifications are developed by one group and tossed over the fence to the next group. This creates friction and elongates development timelines. But there is also a challenge with developing drugs without the necessary feedback from the market - or that the market moves on from the initial dream of how a drug would perform in the market. We speak about how no matter how well we plan out drug development, risks will materialize. Planning may give an illusion of control, but the mentality of understanding that a plan is a nice baseline to navigate according to, but not actual reality, is crucial for navigating. Christian predicts that our industry will pivot towards developing patient solutions to a higher degree rather than drugs alone. These need to be tailored to the diseases they are targeting - but also patient profiles. We dive into how speaking to each other across professional domains is key to creating most possible value. But also that domain knowledge is essential for digitization. The life cycles of technology and health are very different. We speak about the example of Chat GPT and drug development lifecycles - but also those of organizations. And that life sciences needs to catch up to the speed of technology. Guest:Christian Born Djurhuushttps://www.linkedin.com/in/christian-born-djurhuus-58a4395/ ________Reach out to Sam Parnell and Ivanna RosendalJoin the conversation on our LinkedIn page

    Simon Taylor: We need to deal with technological debt at clinical sites

    This week we speak to Simon Taylor, Head of European Solutions Consulting at Florence Healthcare. We focus on site oriented technology transformation. We speak about the current challenges that clinical sites face, such as the high degree of churn within the healthcare industry, the increasing complexity of protocols and the prevalence of paper as the primary recording mechanism. We speak about how to help sites quit their paper dependencies, and how the regulatory landscape stands in the way of adapting more digital ways of working.  Sites have been given technologies to use by the sponsors that have not worked for them in the past - and have created an expectation that technology will not help make the process easier. We speak about the discrepancies between CROs, sponsors and sites. And how there is room for improvement to ensure that everyone wins from collaboration. Decentralized clinical trials are not well equipped to adopt additional technologies unless they can successfully move all of their processes into a more digital operating model on a more fundamental level.  The regulatory agencies have been encouraging diversity in clinical trial recruitment. Representation in research is currently skewed, so additional focus is needed. But it translates into a new kind of work for clinical sites - of physically going to new areas to recruit patients. Guest:Simon Taylorhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/simon-taylor-56143638/Florence Healthcarehttps://www.florencehc.com/ ________Reach out to Sam Parnell and Ivanna RosendalJoin the conversation on our LinkedIn page

    Ole Henriksen: How health technology assessments transformed clinical development

    This week we speak to Ole Henriksen, Associated Partner of Nordic Healthcare Group and pharmaceutical market access expert. We speak about how health technology assessments (HTA) has impacted how we conduct clinical trials. Health Technology Assessment (HTA) emerged first as a research area in decision aids. Later, during the 1990s, as a formal requirement for reimbursement.Due to it being a requirement in many markets, it is often called “the 4th hurdle”.  It should be understood in addition to regulatory requirements on efficacy, safety and quality, HTA poses a 4th requirement of therapeutic value or value for money.The main purpose of conducting an assessment in the first place is to inform decision making. The research question or decision problem is: Should we include the technology as part of standard of care (and reimburse it)?Historically clinical trials were used to gain market access by passing regulatory requirements – efficacy, safety and quality. The emergence of HTA meant that data and information on the technologies at time of marketing should also be used to assess the value of the technology vs. existing clinical practice and in clinical practice.This is perhaps one of the big dilemmas in medical development today that we have regulatory authorities who grant priority review/fast track and so on, but HTA authorities asking for more certain effects to be documented at reimbursement.Guest:Ole Henriksenhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/ole-henriksen-b911705/Nordic Healthcare Grouphttps://nordichealthcaregroup.com/ ________Reach out to Sam Parnell and Ivanna RosendalJoin the conversation on our LinkedIn page

    Kimberly Tableman: Does true transformation in trials start with the clinical protocol?

    This week we are hosting Kimberly Tableman, Founder and CEO of ESPERO Health, and speak about how clinical trial protocols are being re-imagined in our industry. We dive into what a protocol actually is and what it describes. Protocols are currently being developed with a lot of manual research. WIth googling, phoning friends and re-using existing protocols in word documents. Trials today are being conducted in a more complex environment than before. This means that it is necessary to adapt the trial design as the trial is executed. Creating a trial and executing it unchanged is becoming more rare and requirements for additional digitization in this space are increasing. Trial design is also a very collaborative process involving 10-12 stakeholders. Using a system that supports collaborative creation is key to avoid the pitfalls of versioning and overwriting of comments. Writing the protocol with data collected from the current market can make the protocol more robust and accelerate timelines. That is what Espiro health aims to provide in their protocol platform. Making it easy is the trick to ensure adoption. We also speak about the dynamics that lead to rigidity in the pharmaceutical space and how having sufficient inflow of money in especially big pharma leads to containing the status quo. Speaking out of her experience as a founder, we dive into what it means to start a technology company in the life sciences space and how funding is key to getting off the ground. Guest:Kimberly Tablemanhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/kimberly-tableman/ESPERO Healthhttps://www.linkedin.com/company/espero-health/ ________Reach out to Sam Parnell and Ivanna RosendalJoin the conversation on our LinkedIn page

    This week we have André Chagwedera in the studio, the Founder and CEO of Fleming Protocol. We focus on health data, and what it would mean for patients to own their data. One of the consequences of patients owning their data would be that patient communities would have a say in which areas to conduct clinical research in as well as the design of clinical protocols.Fleming Protocol is a patient peer-to-peer network built on the blockchain. Where Fleming Protocol focuses on providing the tooling to make this network work, they work closely with patient communities, researchers and industry to understand the currently unmet needs and funnel those into research.Having built the solution on the blockchain builds traceability into the process of what gets funded and researched and how these priorities happen. We dive into how this would happen with the mechanisms in the blockchain as well as the needed competencies from the industry.  Guest:André Chagwedera https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrechagwedera/ Fleming Protocolhttps://flemingprotocol.io/ ________Reach out to Sam Parnell and Ivanna RosendalJoin the conversation on our LinkedIn page

    We speak to Raj Indupuri, the co-founder & CEO of eClinical Solutions, about why data plays such a key role in our industry. And dispute this being true for as long as we have had clinical trials, the recent technological advancements open up the possibilities for true data-driven decision making. Even though the clinical space has been digitising for many years, digitization is not necessarily transformative. Pockets of evolution have been attempted in a siloed way - not reaching all the way across the value chain. This creates a fragmented experience for the end users. We speak about platforms and ecosystems of platforms, and how to make the collaboration between stakeholders and technology seamless. And maintaining systems openness. This means that competing providers need to collaborate - as frenemies - for the betterment of research.We imagine what the current transformation in the digital space means for internal IT departments in life sciences, and what kinds of skills and competencies are needed - and which are no longer required. This episode is a little different. Sam works for the company that Raj is the CEO of. And this time around Ivanna gets questions and answers them too.  Guest:Raj Indupurihttps://www.linkedin.com/in/rajindupuri/ eClinical Solutionshttps://www.eclinicalsol.com/ ________Reach out to Sam Parnell and Ivanna RosendalJoin the conversation on our LinkedIn page

    Lars Rosendal: Leadership as the differentiating factor when drug development is uncertain

    Play Episode Listen Later Mar 13, 2023 40:43


    Today we speak with Lars Rosendal, the VP of Global Clinical Operations at LEO Pharma. We speak about how clinical development is an innovation game - and how both governments and patients are willing to pay for innovation.Patients in many major diseases are well served. That means we need to push the innovation to bring something to market that is either much safer, or has a higher degree of efficacy. When it comes to bringing a drug through the entire clinical value chain, there is a lot of uncertainty as it is. When you are trying to aim for innovation, the uncertainty increases. What this uncertainty does to a company depends on the company size. Being in a mid-sized pharmaceutical company means that there is some room for taking risks, but also a need to balance the uncertainty with the need to ensure continued operations. We dive into what this means for trial design in different stages of clinical trials - and how some of these stages can be outsourced, whereas others should be best kept in house to build relationships with HCPs pre-drug launch. We speak about leadership in the clinical area - and the benefits of understanding the entire clinical life cycle. Drug development is both an innovation game and a horse race. Leadership is what will allow your organization to run fast - but also dare to fail in pursuit of a deep purpose. Lars recently re-organized his leadership team to structurally ensure cross-functional collaboration and drive a competitive edge. We speak about the ideas behind this restructuring, and also how it has addressed some of the most stubborn challenges of our industry. Off-mic, Lars Rosendal and Ivanna Rosendal did try to figure out if there is a family relation - but there did not appear to be one.  Guest:Lars Rosendalhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/lars-rosendal-2520a16/ LRXDK@leo-pharma.com ________Reach out to Sam Parnell and Ivanna RosendalJoin the conversation on our LinkedIn page

    In this episode we speak to Rebecca Godfrey, the author of The Leadership Vaccine, about transforming specialists into leaders. In The Leadership Vaccine we follow a story of how a company transforms itself - and discovers the five pillars of leadership.We speak about how the state of leadership in life sciences is improving as the science of leadership is gaining a more prominent position. And how the regulatory requirements of our industry can bring forth creative potential in leadership.    We discuss how leadership may not require technical expertise, and the difference between leading people and leading delivery - and why separating line management from delivery management can be beneficial for specialists. Line management should not be the only way to progress in your career.   Another topic we discuss is how to foster cross-functional collaboration - and how creating a shared responsibility in the leadership team leads to high performance. Rebecca also takes us through the five pillars of leadership as she describes in the book and why they together make an organization click into place. Guest:Rebecca Godfreyhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/rebecca-godfrey/The Leadership Vaccine:https://www.amazon.com/Leadership-Vaccine-innovation-efficiency-resilience/dp/1781334536 ________Reach out to Sam Parnell and Ivanna RosendalJoin the conversation on our LinkedIn page

     Today is World Rare Disease day. It is only fitting that we speak to Sophia Zilber who is a statistical programmer, but also Board Member & Director of Patient Registries at the Cure MITO Foundation, about bridging the gap between the life sciences industry and patient registries in rare diseases. Sophia has experienced first hand how rare diseases lack both data and funding. Using her personal tragedy and statistical programming skills, Sophia engaged in patient advocacy groups attempting to collect patient data for research.  Pharmaceutical companies are often looking for data sources to understand diseases. And patient advocacy groups are eagerly collecting data in the hopes that it will make a difference for finding treatment and cures. But in many cases the data collected is not usable for actual research purposes. Currently there is no guidance on how to create a patient registry that will contain a high enough quality of data to be used for research. Sophia is actively working to change that through multiple efforts, such as a Phuse working group  - and shares with us her advice for how to ensure data quality. Guest:Sophia Zilberhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/sophiazilber/https://sophiazilber.carrd.co/Cure MITO Foundationhttps://www.linkedin.com/company/cure-mito-foundation/ Phuse:https://www.linkedin.com/company/phuse/ ________Reach out to Sam Parnell and Ivanna RosendalJoin the conversation on our LinkedIn page
