Committed to a Science-First Approach to Support Patient Access to Life-Changing Therapies

Veristat, the Science-First Full Service CRO and Consultancy, announced it has joined the Alliance for Regenerative Medicine (ARM), the leading international advocacy organization championing the benefits of cell and gene therapies for patients, healthcare systems, and society. The announcement falls the week before members of Veristat’s Executive team are attending ARM’s Cell & Gene Meeting on the Med (#MeetingOnTheMed) being held in Rome, Italy.

“Advanced therapies have proven themselves as holding numerous benefits for patients struggling with rare and ultra-rare diseases, areas that account for 35% of our work,” stated Patrick Flanagan, Chief Executive Officer of Veristat. “Veristat is proud to have supported the development of the first gene therapy approved in Europe. As the transformative potential of advanced therapies continues to evolve scientifically and therapeutically, we are excited to join with ARM, and together champion a roadmap that removes barriers in clinical, regulatory, and reimbursement to expand access for patients.”

ARM represents more than 475 members across 25 countries, including emerging and established biotechnology companies, research institutions, and patient organizations. ARM’s mission centers on enabling the development of advanced therapies and the modernization of healthcare systems so that patients benefit from durable, potentially curative treatments.

“A key measure of Veristat’s success over our 30 years in business is how effectively we accelerate the pathway for advanced therapy innovation, which is significantly different from conventional drug development frameworks,” stated John Balser, Ph.D., Veristat’s Founder, President, and Chief Statistical Officer. “I am pleased we have joined with ARM to help bring the design, conduct, analysis, and regulatory submission of clinical trials current with the progress of science.”

Veristat experts use Science-First (#Veristat) thinking across its integrated clinical, biometrics, regulatory, and post-marketing capacities to solve problems, set strategies, map contingencies, and advance clinical trials for rare and complex advanced therapies.

In the last five years, Veristat has directly supported:

350+ rare/ultra-rare disease clinical trials and consulting projects
The preparation of 40+ rare disease-related marketing applications
100 clinical trials and consulting projects for rare cancers
130+ cell and gene therapy clinical trials and consulting projects

“We are delighted to welcome Veristat as a member, bringing their scientific expertise to the organization as we envision a future in which more innovative therapies are brought to market for the benefit of patients,” stated Laura Stringham, VP of Membership & Events at ARM.
