      Where we are now

      J&J is focused in areas where patient need is high and our expertise is deep – this includes multiple myeloma and B-cell malignancies, along with other areas of high unmet need within haematology.

      By deepening our understanding of complex forms of blood cancer and taking a patient-focused approach, we’re striving to deliver the next wave of innovations that are tailored to patient’s individual needs and preferences.

      We know that patients need more innovative, personalised therapies that target blood cancers in different ways. Truly personalised medicines and care are tailored to individual disease characteristics which can be key to overcoming treatment resistance. Read more about our work in precision medicine.

      J&J also takes part in collaborative working projects with the NHS to support the delivery of solutions that provide value to patients, healthcare professionals and the health system itself.
      We know the impact blood cancer can have on those affected by the condition, and through continued investment in research and innovation we are steadfast in our commitment to supporting this patient population.
