Düsseldorf, January 4, 2024 – Gerresheimer, an innovative systems and solutions provider and global partner for the pharma, biotech and cosmetics industries, and Aptar Digital Health, a global expert in Software as a Medical Device (SaMD), digital Patient Support Programs (PSPs) and disease management solutions, collaborate to develop an integrated solution for cancer therapy management. As part of this collaboration, the Gx SensAir on-body drug delivery device will be connected to Aptar Digital Health's software-as-a-medical device platform to improve the treatment experience and outcomes of cancer patients.

For pharmaceutical companies, this collaboration is an opportunity to offer a patient-centric solution, and tackle challenges such as treatment interruptions or discontinuations related to administration issues or adverse effects. It also supports the transition from intravenous to subcutaneous administration of oncology drugs.
