MedaSystems Raises $1.5 Million to Build Out Expanded Access Software to Help Patients Gain Access to Investigational Therapies

MedaSystems, a digital health software company, is excited to announce the completion of a $1.5 million pre-seed funding round led by specialist healthtech venture capital fund nina capital in conjunction with a group of strategic angel investors.

Expanded Access allows patients with a serious or life-threatening condition, who have exhausted the standard of care and are not eligible to participate in clinical trials, to request access to investigational therapies that have not yet gained authorization from local regulatory authorities.

MedaSystems has developed a networked platform where pharmaceutical manufacturers and healthcare providers can collaborate on Expanded Access (also known as Managed Access or Compassionate Use) requests. Expanded Accesses played an essential role in developing novel treatments during the Covid-19 pandemic and historically has been a vital pathway for patients with conditions such as cancer, ALS, Alzheimer’s disease, and thousands of rare diseases.

The MedaSystems platform enables pharmaceutical companies to respond to Expanded Access requests faster and more efficiently, design more effective clinical trials, enhance pre-approval regulatory submissions and capture real-world data.
