Built for the patient journey

Patients have always been at the heart of everything we do. With patients increasingly involved in determining their healthcare options, we remain committed to Patient Engagement and are partnering with patients and caregivers to learn more about their experiences. These precious insights help us ensure we are developing the right medicines, improving clinical trials, and creating educational materials that are accessible and easy to understand.

At J&J, we believe that patients and their caregivers hold key information on how to improve healthcare processes and systems. We partner directly with patients and caregivers as we develop medicines, improve clinical trials, and create educational materials and support programs. We are committed to working toward patient-inspired innovation, including:

Clinical trials

Listening to and implementing patient perspectives into clinical trial procedures.

Early drug development

Incorporating patient-reported outcomes in medicine labels.

Administrating medicine

Modifying product design for administering medicine based on patient input.
