Multipharma Group has launched Inceptua Medicines Access, a new business unit specilising in providing access to pre-approval and unlicensed medicines in an increasingly complex environment. It will be led by a recognised team of specialist industry experts who have been involved in many of the initiatives that have grown and shaped the market and built access solutions for the benefit of patients, while mitigating the risks involved in providing access to pre-approval and unlicensed treatments.
Inceptua Medicines Access includes three distinct but collaborative divisions:
- Inceptua Medicines Access Pharma focuses on engaging with biopharmaceutical clients to provide controlled pre-approval access programs to their medicines
- Inceptua Medicines Access Healthcare focuses on sourcing and supplying unlicensed medicines on an on-demand basis for hospitals, pharmacists and physicians
- Inceptua Medicines Access Consulting offers strategy support services to biopharmaceutical clients
