Folia Health and Inspire are Partnering to Bring Personalized Home Health Observations to the Forefront of Patient Focused Drug Development Research
Folia's HRO technology platform and user experience (UX) have been designed in collaboration with patients, caregivers, and clinicians to generate longitudinal insights that are dynamic to each individual. By allowing participants to self-select and define what's most meaningful to share about their lived disease experiences, we can now uncover aspects of diseases that have been the most difficult for researchers to understand and measure when developing novel therapies.
'We are thrilled to partner with Inspire to engage their member communities with our innovative, app-based solution that has been designed to bridge the gap between clinical care decision making and real-world evidence research. These RWE Communities within Inspire's member populations will provide a truly unique combination of real-world data that is required to answer the toughest questions in drug development and reimbursement today.' Nell Meosky Luo - CEO of Folia Health.
As the world's largest online health community, Inspire is the go-to platform for patient and caregiver data, research and engagement. Inspire offers unique access to focused patient populations to support initiatives at every phase of development – from preclinical to post-approval marketing. Inspire is a trusted partner to over 100 patient advocacy organizations, and continues to identify opportunities that put patients and caregivers at the forefront of the most important questions in healthcare.
'At Inspire, we believe that empowering patients and caregivers to contribute their lived experiences is essential to driving meaningful research. By integrating Folia's innovative home-reported outcomes with our engaged health communities, we're unlocking new possibilities for real-world evidence generation that reflects the true patient journey—ultimately accelerating patient-focused drug development.' Brett Kleger - CEO of Inspire.
Folia | Inspire - Revolutionizing Patient-Centered Real-World Evidence ResearchThis partnership enables the first large-scale digital approach to collecting the real-world lived experiences of patients outside of the clinic setting using Folia's HROs, and will directly measure patient-defined burden and the impact of various treatments on quality of life. These insights will be integrated with Inspire's member linked administrative claims data, EMR records, and AI enabled social media listening insights for the most robust patient-level insights available for patient-focused drug development research available today. The fully remote research model eliminates the need for clinic visits or research sites, while equipping patients with powerful insights to share with their care teams to ultimately receive more precise care. Unlike nearly every current research method today, HROs allow patients and caregivers to actively engage with their own study observations, gaining deeper insights into their personal symptom burden, treatment effects, and flare-up events that are commonly associated with complex diseases, while also seamlessly contributing their data for research.
About Folia Health:
Folia Health's home-reported outcomes (HROs) method and technology is pioneering the next generation of patient health data by transforming lived health experiences that occur at-home into valuable structured data insights to support research and personalized care. Through an innovative platform backed by expert analysis, we help life science partners develop effective therapies with demonstrated, real-world value for complex, chronic conditions. Folia's wealth of longitudinal data and proprietary analytics play a vital role in establishing a home-centered, data-driven healthcare ecosystem.

Sun Pharma reports positive results from Phase 3 trials for ILUMYA
Sun Pharmaceutical Industries has shared encouraging top-line results from two (Phase 3) clinical trials evaluating its biologic drug tildrakizumab 100 mg, marketed as ILUMYA®, for the treatment of active psoriatic arthritis (PsA). The studies, named INSPIRE-1 and INSPIRE-2, tested ILUMYA over a 24-week period. Patients who received ILUMYA showed significant improvements in symptoms of psoriatic arthritis compared to those who received a placebo. Both trials successfully met their primary goal—a higher proportion of patients treated with ILUMYA achieved ACR20 responses, a standard measure used to assess improvement in joint disease, by Week 24. The results were statistically significant. On the safety front, the drug performed as expected. There were no new safety concerns, and the data remained in line with ILUMYA's existing safety record. The drug is already approved to treat moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis, and these latest findings suggest it may have potential in addressing PsA as well. However, it's important to note that ILUMYA is not yet approved for psoriatic arthritis, and its use for this indication has not been reviewed or authorized by health regulators. Marek Honczarenko, MD, PhD, Senior Vice President and Head of Global Specialty Development at Sun Pharma, stated, 'We are excited to share that both the INSPIRE-1 and INSPIRE-2 clinical trials have successfully met their primary endpoints. These top-line results reinforce the therapeutic potential of ILUMYA as a treatment option for patients with active psoriatic arthritis. We extend our sincere gratitude to the patients, healthcare professionals and administrators whose contributions made the studies possible. We look forward to sharing the complete clinical data in the near future.' Sun Pharma plans to present the full results from these studies at upcoming medical conferences and publish them in peer-reviewed journals.
