Demonstrating the value of digital health technologies for remote treatment monitoring

Using digital technologies to monitor patients outside of clinical settings has the potential to expand healthcare access, decrease delivery costs, and improve patient compliance. Ä¢¹½tv helps clients develop digital options for remote monitoring while enhancing regulatory and reimbursement success.

The Challenge

Ä¢¹½tv's client is developing chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy, a promising treatment for multiple myeloma and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. However, a potentially life-threatening immune system side-effect — cytokine release syndrome (CRS) — requires monitoring those receiving CAR T-cell therapy in the hospital, which increases healthcare system costs and negatively impacts patients' quality of life.

EXPONENT'S MULTIDISCIPLINARY SOLUTION

Based on the depth of experience in Ä¢¹½tv's Health Sciences, Biomedical Engineering & Sciences, and Biomechanics practices, a client asked us to identify digital health technologies for effective at-home monitoring of CRS and other potential side effects of CAR T-cell therapy.

EXPONENT'S IMPACT

The client incorporated Ä¢¹½tv's insights for monitoring CAR T-cell therapy recipients using digital health technologies to streamline the treatment process and reduce hospitalizations, improving affordability, equitable access, and outcomes.
