Sickle Cell Disease: John James sharing patient perspectives

While significant therapeutic advances are underway for inherited blood disorders such as sickle cell disease, hemophilia and β-thalassemia, key challenges remain for the commercialization of these therapies, as well as disparities in access to these treatments and level of care received by patients.
In this episode of Axiom Catalyst, we invited John James, CEO of Sickle Cell Society to discuss the impact of sickle celldisease on day-to-day lives of patients living in the UK, as well as current challenges in their clinical journey. We also explore the outreach work done by the Sickle Cell Society including key local initiatives such as the Hackney engagement project, and the translatory impact of their patient support work.
