Community, connection, collaboration
At Agios, building bonds and cultivating relationships are at the heart of our ability to create life-changing therapies for people with rare diseases.
Patients and caregivers, advocates, healthcare providers, payers, scientific collaborators and research partners. We’re all part of a team that helps bring life-changing therapies to market for people with rare diseases.
We’re committed to building trusted relationships with our extended teammates, each of whom lends mission-critical insight that enables us to discover, develop and deliver therapies faster and with greater success. We simply couldn’t do it without the unique contributions and perspectives of each person.
Our approach
in action
During a strategic advisory meeting with patients and healthcare providers, a patient told us, “We need to replace ‘I’ve created this for you,’ with ‘I’ve created this with you.’” That’s exactly the approach we took with our RISE UP Phase 2/3 clinical study researching an investigational medicine for sickle cell disease. The study protocol, name, and recruitment campaign were developed in partnership with a group of sickle cell warriors from around the world who spent months working with us, sharing incredible insights that informed the study design and set the direction for the communications campaign; they continued to collaborate and work closely with us during every step of the project.
Our hope was to create something together that would be meaningful to the community and represent the warriors’ resilience in the face of challenges, refusal to settle for the status quo, and influential efforts to educate the world about sickle cell and close the equality gap in healthcare. While this is a study sponsored by Agios, it is also a study created by the sickle cell community.

At Agios, people living with rare diseases are at the center of everything we do and every decision we make.
