Pfizer Germany and Alex Therapeutics enter strategic partnership in the field of digital behavioral therapies
Alex Therapeutics combines the latest insights from the psychology of cognitive behavioral, acceptance and commitment therapy with the power of artificial intelligence to develop an AI-powered platform for digital therapies: the "AlexDTx Platform." The Swedish company thus offers personalized stand-alone solutions for the treatment of patients and supports them in avoiding health-damaging behaviors. We are delighted about Alex Therapeutics' cooperation with Pfizer!
The Pfizer Healthcare Hub team and experienced Pfizer experts are working on a digital therapy for smoking cessation via smartphone as part of the cooperation with the Alex Therapeutics team.
The medical product was developed by Alex Therapeutics and adapted to the requirements of the German healthcare system together with Pfizer. Pfizer is currently conducting an extensive clinical trial with the app in Germany to prove the medical benefits of the solution.
"With this solution, we can give patients access to new innovative forms of therapy while taking full advantage of the opportunities offered by digitalization," says Aylin Tüzel, Country Manager at Pfizer Germany.
