Building Trust for the Nanomedicine That's Supercharging Radiation Therapy

Nanobiotix

THE CHALLENGE
Elderly head and neck cancer patients were facing a devastating reality: they were too frail for aggressive chemotherapy but needed more than standard radiation therapy could deliver. These vulnerable patients – many dealing with advanced disease while managing other health conditions – were running out of effective treatment options. Meanwhile, Nanobiotix had developed revolutionary nanomedicine technology that could potentially supercharge radiation therapy, but they faced the challenge of reaching elderly patients who were often overwhelmed by complex medical decisions and skeptical of experimental treatments.

 

THE SOLUTION
e transformed Nanobiotix’s complex nanomedicine science into a message of hope and possibility for elderly cancer patients and their families. Rather than focusing on nanotechnology details that could overwhelm patients, we positioned their radioenhancer as the breakthrough that could help radiation therapy work better – giving patients a fighting chance when other options weren’t available. Our comprehensive study brand spanned their entire clinical trial portfolio, creating educational materials that helped patients understand how nanoscale physics could enhance their treatment while building trust in Nanobiotix’s 17-year track record of innovation. The result: a patient recruitment strategy that not only filled their head and neck cancer studies but also established Nanobiotix as the nanomedicine company that puts patient hope at the center of cutting-edge cancer research.

KEY OUTCOMES

Developing a study brand for a potential groundbreaking treatment

Nanobiotix aims to enhance the effectiveness of radiation therapy while minimizing the impact on surrounding healthy tissues, with their investigational radioenhancer called NBTXR3. Their ultimate goal is to establish this new approach as a new standard of care in cancer treatment. To swiftly raise awareness about the study and educate site staff on this innovative approach, the Stark / Raving team devised a strategic plan that introduced Nanobiotix to the clinical team. This approach included patient- and site-facing materials that effectively educated both audiences about the potential benefits of the combined treatment approach for head and neck cancer.

Making a complex study design approachable for study participants and site staff

Navigating head and neck cancer poses significant challenges for both patients and their families. When clinical trials enter the picture, with their array of tests, procedures, and treatment plans, it can further complicate matters. Our objective was to simplify the study details and intricate design in a visually accessible manner, empowering patients throughout their participation. Additionally, we created a set of study tools specifically tailored for healthcare professionals involved in the trial. These resources served to keep the clinical trial at the forefront of their minds and supported the seamless implementation of the protocol.
