SciCross is a full member of the Innovative Medicines Initiative (IMI) project ABIRISK. Within the ABIRISK project, we collect and analyze both retrospective and prospective immunogencity-related data from a large number of patients. The disease areas covered includes hemophilia A, rheumatoid arthritis and inflammatory bowel disease, all areas where biopharmaceuticals (BPs) are used as treatment. SciCross is leading the database subteam responsible for collecting and integrating data from clinical studies, ADA assays, PK/PD assays, immunophenotyping etc. Furthermore, SciCross contributes in the integration and analysis of data generate wrt T-cell epitopes and activation. For further information please visit the ABIRISK website.
