• Increase Breyanzi's recognition as a differentiated treatment option among patients, caregivers, and advocacy groups.
• Activate and elevate the voices of CAR T-treated patients, using testimonials and real‑world experiences to inform and inspire others considering this therapy.
• Lead the development and execution of the Direct-to-Consumer (DTC) non-personal promotion (NPP) and paid media strategy, leveraging dynamic targeting to reach and educate eligible patients and caregivers effectively.
• Partner with key matrix team members, including medical, market access, corporate communications, analytics, channel strategy, and patient voice & engagement teams, to ensure a holistic approach to patient engagement.
