The financial terms of the agreement have not been disclosed, however the first initiative will be to integrate BIOCORP’s Injay connected solution for Pre-filled syringes (PFS) to AARDEX’s MEMS Adherence Software (MEMS AS®), to target medicines delivered by PFS with potential applications in the field of Rheumatoid Arthritis, Multiple Sclerosis, Ophthalmology, Psoriasis or Cardiovascular diseases. The roadmap also includes integration with BIOCORP’s other connected devices, to cover further chronic conditions in the field of injectable, respiratory, and beyond.
David Dalla Vecchia, CEO and Financial Lead of AARDEX Group, said: "We are delighted to announce our partnership with BIOCORP. Our vision is to continuously innovate in data-driven medication adherence solutions to enhance digital therapeutics and patient empowerment. Partnering with BIOCORP - a true pioneer in connected devices - will significantly contribute to that objective and bring together a wealth of knowledge and experience to help meet the needs of today’s clinical trials, patients and healthcare providers.”
Éric Dessertenne, CEO of BIOCORP, concluded: “This collaboration with AARDEX Group brings a strong added value to our products and to our targeted users.

The World Health Organization has stated that, in developed countries, adherence to long-term therapies in the general population is only around 50%. But this issue is not limited to commercialized drugs and real-life conditions, it also massively affects clinical trials, which impacts assessment of drug efficacy.
