PALO ALTO, Calif., Feb. 6, 2025 -- Glooko, Inc., a global integrated digital health company connecting patients, providers, biopharma, and medical device partners, and Innovation Zed, a pioneering developer of connected add-on devices for drug delivery devices, today announced a strategic partnership to develop and deploy digital companion apps with the adaptive DOSE platform hardware add-on technology for injectable therapies. This collaboration aims to revolutionize the management of injectable medications by providing comprehensive connectivity and data capture solutions for dosing, storage, and injection techniques.
Addressing the Challenges of Injectable Therapies
Injectable therapies are essential for managing many chronic conditions, yet they pose significant challenges. Complex dosing regimens, fear of injections, and variability in injection technique can hinder adherence and compromise safety. Additionally, improper storage can impact medication efficacy, while limited data capture makes it difficult to monitor patient progress effectively. This collaboration aims to address these challenges by providing a comprehensive digital solution that supports patients and healthcare providers in optimizing injectable therapies.
Glooko and Innovation Zed's Innovative Technology
This innovative digital companion system, seamlessly integrating hardware and software, will be designed to integrate with the Glooko platform, currently used by over 8,200 diabetes clinics worldwide. This integration will enable the capture and analysis of critical information related to injectable therapies from Innovation Zed's DOSE platform technology, offering enhanced support for healthcare providers and patients alike.
Key Benefits of the Digital Companion Apps:
- Improved Adherence: Accurate recording and monitoring of dosing schedules to support adherence and optimize therapy outcomes.
