Case Study: Moderna Medical Affairs Keeps Research Current with ReadCube’s Real-Time, Automated Solution

Moderna, a leading mRNA technology company, achieved unprecedented growth during the global COVID-19 pandemic. Before the pandemic, Moderna’s Medical Affairs teams aligned their Research and Commercial narratives via a scientific communications platform (SCP), which was set at the beginning of the year and remained relatively unchanged.
However, during the pandemic, the sheer volume of daily data releases and updates on the virus, its evolution, evidence on the most vulnerable populations, efficacy and durability, and overall real-world evidence (RWE) exploded and became difficult to manage with existing tools.
Moderna Medical Affairs sought out a seamless, automated end-to-end solution that would:
- Efficiently update their SCP so that teams could be more agile.
- Easily organize new information and keep research up-to-date by supporting a variety of workflows and categorizations using tagging and search filters.
- Host various libraries, including research on COVID-19, RSV, and Flu, among others–scaling alongside the team’s growing pipeline.
- Offer custom fields, allowing teams to capture critical data points identified through regular literature reviews and updates.
- Ensure research citations are always correct since Medical Affairs is highly regulated.
- Enable its field team to engage more deeply with healthcare professionals (HCPs) on the go.
The Medical Affairs team evaluated and chose ReadCube, thanks to a recommendation from another Moderna department that was already using the solution.
In this case study, you’ll learn how Moderna Medical Affairs used ReadCube’s literature management platform as a centralized repository with features for easy content management and integration with other tools. You’ll also understand the positive impact of ReadCube on Moderna’s Medical Affairs team, including research and data efficiency, accuracy, and collaboration improvements.
Additionally, you will see the key benefits of using ReadCube for shared and automated research libraries in the Medical Affairs field.
“People love the ease of use,” says Rachel Kennedy, PhD, Head of Scientific Communications, Medical Affairs at Moderna. “They say it’s a seamless user experience, and from our side, we’re completely satisfied.”
