TAKEDA's Perspectives

TAKEDA is a leader in clinical research. In order to continuously fulfill our purpose of bringing better healthcare to people, and a brighter future for our world, we must embed Patient Participation into every aspect of our global value chain - starting with research and development efforts, manufacturing processes, access strategy and global corporate social responsibility programs as well as community advocate partnerships. By ensuring that our company is actively engaging the right sites and ensuring all patient populations are recruited into our trials we strengthen our team, our company, and our brand.

TAKEDA Mission and Vision

To empower our healthcare professionals and clinical research professionals with the knowledge and understanding needed when engaging all patient populations and communities in clinical research.

Past

The history of patients in the healthcare system is filled with atrocities that created a lack of trust in the healthcare system, especially in clinical research.

Present

The FDA has drafted a guidance for pharma and the healthcare industry to follow, including mandating a Diversity Action Plan to include all patients in clinical trials in order to produce better results in medicines and better healthcare for all patients.

Future

More patients with the understanding and knowledge needed to make conscious decisions in their healthcare reduces the chances of patients returning for the same illness.
