Additionally, it aimed to evaluate the potential profile of new products for MM. The study targeted a specific group of hematologists administering or well-versed in CAR-T therapy, one of the most advanced treatments for hematological cancers. The recruitment process spanned three weeks, followed by a five-day interview period with nine participants. Targeting this sample was challenging due to the specialized nature of CAR-T therapy. However, the study successfully demonstrated our capability to reach and engage with this niche group of healthcare professionals, providing valuable insights into the current landscape and prospects for MM treatment. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/604dd5eb6622412b2d854247/1622646033657-D25NEZ1JVDPRR9ZY3L8N/shutterstock_267662933-2.jpg Case Study - Qualitative - Insights into Treatment Approaches for CKD and Hypertension in Japan This qualitative study aimed to understand the current treatment landscape for chronic diseases such as chronic kidney disease (CKD) and hypertension, and to gauge potential prescription behavior for new mechanisms of action (MOAs). The study involved 36 participants, including nephrologists, cardiologists, and internal medicine specialists. The recruitment process spanned three weeks, followed by a nine-day interview period. We conducted both in-person and online interviews, with three participants interviewed in person and 33 online. This flexibility highlighted our commitment to adapting to participants' preferences and circumstances. Despite the challenges of managing a large sample size and coordinating multiple interview formats, the study provided valuable insights into the current treatment situation for CKD and hypertension, as well as potential prescribing patterns for novel MOAs. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/604dd5eb6622412b2d854247/529e127d-1820-4ee7-838e-18e1d772f50d/PsO+and+PsA.jpg Case Study - Qualitative - Understanding Unmet Needs of PsO and PsA Patients in China and Japan The three-phase study aimed to understand the unmet needs and challenges faced by PsO and PsA patients in China and Japan. The study involved a pulse survey, an online bulletin board, and follow-up qualitative interviews. Patients completed a 10-minute pulse survey before participating in a two-week online bulletin board discussion with the moderator and other patients. Following this, patients joined a 60-minute follow-up qualitative interview. We successfully recruited 30 patients in Japan and 40 patients in China, including those with only PsO or PsA and those with both conditions. Recruitment was completed within four weeks. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/604dd5eb6622412b2d854247/1618644623713-IKXGZPCZRQD00NP18BS3/unsplash-image-WMSvsWzhM0g.jpg Case Study - Qualitative - Advanced NSCLC patient journey study in China and Hong Kong Client was aiming to conduct an study including qualitative IDIs online quantitative interviews.

The study targeted a rare and unique group of specialists. The recruitment process spanned three weeks, followed by a three-day interview period with three participants. This study illustrated the challenges of reaching such a niche target audience, as the payer’s component was the most demanding aspect due to Japan's unique insurance policies. Despite these hurdles, the study successfully engaged with these rare specialists, providing valuable insights into drug pricing and efficacy impressions from the payers' perspective within the ophthalmology therapeutic area. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/604dd5eb6622412b2d854247/1618644575303-EDKMQWW4AV5TKCVSP2OV/unsplash-image-ruQ-_rc5tOo.jpg Case Study - Qualitative - Vaccines study across APAC The client was aiming to conduct a large-scale qualitative study (n=30s per country) concerning market entry assessment across APAC countries (China, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Australia) for vaccines targeting two infectious disease areas.
