Asma: Nuevo programa de investigación de AstraZeneca

Queridos miembros,

Carenity os ofrece la oportunidad de forma parte del Global Patient Partnership Programme creado por AstraZeneca, una compañía farmacéutica internacional.

Dado que el programa está organizado en varios países europeos, el idioma de trabajo de todos los procedimientos y documentos será el inglés. Por lo tanto, un buen dominio del idioma inglés (oral y escrito) es un requisito obligatorio para todos los participantes.

Por la misma razón, la descripción del programa a continuación está en inglés.

Esperamos que en el futuro haya oportunidades similares para aquellos que no pueden participar en el Programa debido a la barrera del idioma.

What is the Patient Partnership Programme (PPP)?

Through the Patient Partnership Program, AstraZeneca aims to collaborate directly with patients worldwide to listen, learn, and co-create products and solutions that will deliver benefits for all patients.

What does the Programme consist of?

The aim of the Programme is to bring the patient voice to AstraZeneca global teams working in clinical development, medical affairs, marketing, and patient access.

This could include projects such as, but not limited to, study protocol development, co-designing patient support tools and programmes, or developing patient educational materials.

Time commitment will vary depending on project needs and meeting types e.g. telephone, email, and in-person meetings.

Once enrolled, patient partners are matched to specific projects based on their area(s) of personal or professional expertise.

Project details such as the patient partner's role and responsibilities and time commitments will be discussed and agreed upon between AstraZeneca project sponsors and patient partners prior to initiation of activities. It is anticipated that discussions over telephone or videoconference may require less number of hours than in-person meetings, which may require travel time.

PPP partners are not obligated to participate in an activity if invited to do so. They have the right to terminate participation with the Patient Partnership Programme at any time.

Are there any specific requirements?

Participants of the ASTHMA PPP are people who:

- are affected by moderate to severe asthma
- have skills or experience in functional areas pertinent to healthcare such as medical, science, research, digital health, marketing, communications, education, healthcare, regulatory, devices and other areas
- 18+ years old
- fluent in the English language
- Reside in the US, UK, Canada, or the EU

Will there be much travelling?

It is anticipated that most work will be co-created via teleconference/videoconference or email. Extensive travel is not anticipated (likely no more than once or twice per year for a day or two, if at all).

How to apply?
