    Scientific Innovation

    Externally Sponsored Research (ESR)

    What is Externally Sponsored Research (ESR)?

     

    We believe in accelerating discovery processes to bring solutions to patients through innovative and collaborative science-driven research.

    
Externally Sponsored Research (ESR) can lead to meaningful advances in disease understanding and treatment.

    Investigator-Initiated-Studies

    Investigator-Initiated Studies (IIS)

    Research that is conducted by an external third party who assumes regulatory and legal responsibility for development, conduct, and oversight of the study. argenx supports Investigator-Initiated Studies, which may be interventional or observational.

    Clinical Research Collaboration

    Clinical Research Collaboration

    Clinical Research Collaboration is similar to IIS research in that the external third party assumes regulatory and legal responsibility for development, conduct, and oversight of the study. Unlike with IIS, argenx can initiate research and collaborate with investigators in service of developing and executing innovative study designs and move the science forward together.

    Email esr@argenx.com to learn more.

    Inquiries and research proposals that are not ESRs can be sent to BD@argenx.com.
