Rare disease clinical trial specialist Aparito joins Ambrose Healthcare’s collaborative network for the development of new rare disease treatments

Ambrose Healthcare Ltd (Ambrose Healthcare), a specialist pharmaceutical company in rare diseases and hospital care, is pleased to announce the broadening of its network of collaborators with the joining of Aparito.


The collaboration enables Ambrose Healthcare and Aparito together to overcome a key challenge of developing and measuring clinical trial endpoints in rare disease studies. Aparito joins Ambrose Healthcare’s network of rare disease collaborators to tackle the many unmet needs of rare disease patients and specialists. 


Aparito and Ambrose Healthcare are both part of the Welsh Healthcare ecosystem and based in Wrexham, Wales.

This new collaboration builds on Ambrose Healthcare’s network of experts working together to deliver new rare disease treatments.”


Dr Elin Haf Davies, Chief Executive of Aparito said: “Our Atom5™ platform was originally designed for rare disease trials and has been deployed in a wide range of studies to quantify how a patient feels, functions and responds to treatment using digital biomarkers and novel outcome measures as endpoints. We are excited to be working as part of this innovative network for the benefit of rare disease patients.”
