Pediatric Pharmacy is More than Niche, It Saves Lives

In an era where personalized healthcare is becoming a necessity rather than a luxury, pediatric pharmacy carves a critical spot, especially as it proves to be a lifesaver in complex cases. On this episode of Healthcare Rethink, host Brian Urban, who serves as the Director of Innovation and Emerging Markets at FinThrive, delves deep into this field.

This episode features Jena Quinn, CEO of Perfecting Peds, discussing the profound impact of pediatric pharmacy on young patients’ lives, especially those with complex medical needs. Quinn’s approach is holistic, leveraging a proprietary 13-step process to ensure medication efficacy and safety, ultimately leading to better health outcomes for pediatric patients.

In the rapidly advancing field of cancer immunotherapy, accurately modeling the tumor microenvironment (TME) has become essential to improving the predictive power of preclinical drug testing. As immune-modulating therapies surge forward, with over 4,000 immune modulators in development globally, scientists are refining assay technologies that maintain the complexity of patient-specific tumor biology. In vitro platforms…

As cancer immunotherapy continues to reshape treatment landscapes, fine-tuning T-cell responses has become a critical frontier. Recent advances in 3D organoid models and high-content imaging are enabling scientists to closely mimic patient-specific tumor environments—unlocking insights into how T cells behave, respond, and falter under immune checkpoint blockade. With over 4,000 immune modulators in clinical…

As immunotherapy revolutionizes cancer treatment, the need for physiologically relevant preclinical models becomes more urgent than ever. Despite the success of immune checkpoint inhibitors, a large majority of patients fail to achieve long-lasting responses, prompting researchers to explore more complex and predictive assays. The cancer immunity cycle, first described in 2013, remains a central framework…
