| − | <h3> Introduction </h3>
| + | |
| − | We started our entrepreneurship by joining the SUND Hub Incubator Program early on in the iGEM journey. Through this endeavor, we were inspired to meet people who could guide us through each stage of a MedTech start-up. In this section, we will take a walk through how the entrepreneurship journey began at the CIDosis office and our interactions with business experts.
| + | |
| − | Our main takeaways from the meetings were:
| + | |
| − | <br> <br> <b>
| + | |
| − | • Learning how to pitch to investors and convey our message to other stakeholders </br>
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | • Legal, organizational, structural, and financial requirements for creating a MedTech start-up </br>
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | • Understanding how to analyze the competitor and customer landscape </br>
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | • Regulatory requirements for market entry of a medical device </br> </b>
| + | |

| − | <img src="https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2020/4/42/T--UCopenhagen--timeline_entrepp_really_new_1.png" style="width:100%;"> | + | <p>We should all recognize the importance of building an open and welcoming scientific community. A more diverse community involved in creating knowledge and technology is more likely to produce a more equitable and representative system. Every individual, regardless of background or experience, should have an equal opportunity to engage with scientific knowledge and technological development. Everyone should be able to share their opinions on the societal implications of research. |

| − | The Bootcamp Session was primary lead by Peter Birk from Accelerace and Anders Graabæk from Validate, two Start-up acceleration Organisations. In this workshop we were introduced to the Entrepreneurship path, with elements such as the <b>“Five anchors of a good opportunity”</b>. This concept invited us to think if our solution was creating significant value for a compelling medical need or problem; if it was a good fit and timing and with a differentiation and sustainable advantage over other solutions; and lastly, whether it would have a profit and return potential.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | We were also advised to <b>“Love the problem, and not the solution”</b>, to allow for innovative ideas upgrading our solution, avoiding staying static in one solution that does not fit the needs of the patient.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Moreover, we did several exercises to learn how to frame our goal in order to articulate it better when presenting it to people outside of the project, through the <b>NABC model</b> (Need, Approach, Benefits and Competition). We felt inspired by this articulation of our purpose and decided to also create a <b>Golden circle</b> where we showed first the WHY, then the HOW and in the end the WHAT or our solution.

| − | As a part of the SUND Hub Start-up incubator program, we had to present our projects to Nadia Storm and Peter Løvschall, in order to get the perfect guidance on how to start diving into the entrepreneurial part of the project. In this meeting, we realized how important is to <b>know the audience background before you pitch</b> your idea, and the need of always summarising the entire project in the first lines, and then explain each part more thoroughly. We also received feedback on what other information we needed to be more credible when pitching, such as experts backing up assumptions we drawn from papers, or patient stories that would make the problem more tangible.

However, none of us had any expertise in business management, let alone how one would go about getting a GMO medical product approved for market. Luckily, we were able to have two meetings with Caroline, Business Master student working in medical devices. She gave us some inspiration of different kind of analysis we could make for our product, but most importantly, she was the first person that recommended us to launch our product to just <b>one or two target diseases</b>. She explained that even though we wanted to create our product for several diseases, we would get an <b>easier approval</b> if we started with the most important or the one we could create the most impact to, and the continue with the rest.

| |
| − | Pernille explained us how essential is to have <b>Freedom to Operate</b> (FTO) as well as <b>Intellectual Property Rights</b> (IPR) over an idea. She summarized the entire process in 4 steps:
| |
| − | <br>
| |
| − | <ul>
| |
| − | <li>•<b>Check patent requirements</b> (it should be statutory, novel, useful and non-obvious). In this step, Pernille made a really good job making us conscious of the importance of the “novel” part. The idea should have never been disclosed before, which is why she remarked several times during the presentation that scientists trying to guess the future applications of their discoveries in the discussion parts of the papers, are their own enemies in case they want to get a patent on their discovery. </li>
| |
| − | <li>•<b>Secure the investment:</b> once we have gotten an IPR license, as this is usually what investors require for large investments. </li>
| |
| − | <li>•<b>Obtain the FTO:</b> as sometimes you might fall inside a bigger patent that prevents you from exploiting yours. Therefore, you then need to obtain a license from them, with a monetary cost.</li>

| |
| − | Two attorneys from Horten explained us 4 of the most important legal aspects to take into account when creating a business:
| |
| − | <br>
| |
| − | <ul>
| |
| − | <li>• <b>Company form</b>: they introduced the audience to the different types of legal company forms, their protection for the owner, and their economical liability, which made us consider the option of creating a Private limited company (ApS in Denmark), where we would need a minimum of 40.000DKK, but it would grant us economic protection. </li>
| |
| − |
| |
| − | <li>• <b>Shareholder agreement</b>: this agreement is the one that states how the company is managed. It is the contract between the owner/s and the company, where the responsibilities of each are explained. they introduced us to the Tag alone or Drag alone clauses, that can be stated in the Shareholder agreement. These are different clauses that can be used strategically to bound the second party to buy or sell more shares. Other clauses that can be included is for example the Deadlock situation, that appoints a 3rd professional party to make a decision if there is a 50/50 situation. </li>
| |
| − |
| |
| − |
| |
| − | <li>• <b>Funding</b>: There are 3 options often used:
| |
| − | <br>
| |
| − | <ul>> Convertible loans: where after a certain period of time, the money owed can be converted to shares.
| |
| − | <br>
| |
| − | > Crowdfunding: in the form of donation/reward (where you don’t need to pay back the money), peer to peer lending (which is similar to a loan) or investment (with which you need an investment agreement).
| |
| − | <br>
| |
| − | > Grants: which are donations to the project usually by big funds.</ul> </li>
| |
| − |
| |
| − |
| |
| − | <li>• <b>Workforce</b>: There are differences in the protection rights of each type of title, and therefore, the funders do not have any protection right status, the employees do have protection rights (contracts, insurance, holidays,...) and consultants don’t have protection rights, and are usually autonomous. </li>

| − | Rasmus and Helene introduced us to the normal timeline for obtaining an IP. They explained us that we have to start at least 3 months in advance doing a novelty search and drafting the application, and then the clock starts at the <b>DoF</b> (Date of Filing). Six months later, a <b>Search Report</b> (SR) and <b>Written Opinion</b> (WO) is received from the authorities. These documents usually give an idea whether you can file a patent or not, depending on the information available. After that, it comes the <b>Date of Priority</b> (DoP). Before this day, you can file other applications claiming priority to the initial one, and it is 1 year after the DoF. Therefore, you usually can change the patent claims during the 1st year, while at the same time provide all the necessary data to prove that your claim works.
| |
| − | <br>
| |
| − | <br>
| |
| − | Patents are published 18 months after the DoF, which means that you can still file a patent for 1,5 years and still get no indications of an existing patent in the SR. Two years after the DoF, every patent becomes publicly available.
| |
| − | <br>
| |
| − | <br>
| |
| − | They explained that usually it is first applied in <b>PVS</b> (Denmark), as it is less costly, and then to <b>EPO</b> (Europe) or <b>PCT</b> (international). Thirty months after the application to the PCT (international patent), the IP dies and you have to apply to the specific authorities, usually quite costly. Therefore, they explained us that, by then, we should have already started selling our product for having bigger funding.

| − | We contacted Claus with the concern of our product having GMO as a key component, being a problem regarding regulatory approval. We had explored before on the regulations and saw that it should be a clas I medical device but were unsure about our judgement. Together with Claus, we went through the <b>MDR</b> (European Medical Device Regulations), and confirmed that the <b>patch would be classified as a class I</b> (as we will explain later in this page, under regulatory measures). It would be classified as a Diagnostic medical device. However, he explained us that the idea of the <b>app</b> for monitoring progression and sending the relevant data to the doctors would be classified as a <b>class IIa</b>, and therefore would need more time to be approved and it would need a bigger amount of capital.

| |
| − | <br>
| |
| − | We also explained our feasibility concerns on getting approval between <b>US or EU</b> due to differences in GMO regulation, but he expressed there were not big differences between the two, and therefore it was probably more convenient to enter Europe first. And lastly, he cleared some of our doubts on when was it needed to apply for a <b>CE marking approval</b>, that should be the last step before market approval, when we already got all the clinical data and regulatory approval.

| |
| − | <div>Being a small start up in the med tech industry is complicated due to the many regulations and requirements such as clinical trials before your product can enter the market. Thus we have not focused our work on a business plan and return of investments predictions, rather we have attempted to navigate the regulatory landscape. We wish to showcase the requirements of a medtech start-up in a transparent way, other teams…. After a short introduction to the company idea, we start by presenting possible market access strategy for our product. Then we highlight the unmet needs in the industry and present our potential customers. We end by discussion product development plan, leading into the next steps.

| − | CIDosis provides a monitoring device for patients with chronic inflammatory diseases, allowing them to track their inflammation and assess the efficacy of their treatment. We are developing the CIDosis patch; A sweat-patch with a yeast-based biosensor to detect inflammatory biomarkers in sweat. When placed on the skin, the patch produces a color output matching the level on inflammation. This color can be recorded and the disease tracked with the dedicated CIDosis App to allow for easy and stressfree monitoring. Our monitoring device is like nothing on the market and will be provide valuable data for patients with a broad variety of CID's. The CIDosis patch will supplement patient monitoring, providing a practical solution for requiring the data needed for continuous treatment adjustment, improving patients' quality of life.

| − | Making a device that is intended for the med-tech market is easier said than done. The med-tech market is heavily regulated in order to ensure that patient safety is maintained. Understanding these regulations and how they relate to your product is difficult. In order to make the process of getting regulatory approval transparent, we relied on the guidance of different experts. Our work, based on expert input and our own research, is featured here to provide a clear overview of the regulations for our product and also so that future iGEM teams developing a med-tech device can gain insight into the regulatory world.
| |
| − |
| |
| − |
| |
| − | <h2> Regulatory measures </h2>
| |
| − | There is a lot of regulatory measures one would need to take in order to get a product like ours to market. Before entering the market, we need a CE marking proving that we conform with health, safety and environmental protection standards in the EEA (European Economic Area). The first step towards getting a CE marking for medical devices is figuring out what risk class it belongs to. There are four different risk classes for medical devices, the fourth encompassing high risk devices such as pacemakers, and the first encompassing low risk devices such as reusable surgical instruments. It is possible to determine what classification a device belongs to by a process of elimination.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | <br><br>
| |
| − | As a baseline a non-invasive medical device belongs to class 1, unless: <br>
| |
| − | <ol>
| |
| − | <li>
| |
| − | <li> 1. It is intended to channel or store blood
| |
| − |
| |
| − | <li> 2. It is intended to modify the biological or chemical composition of blood
| |
| − |
| |
| − | <li>3. It is intended to have contact with injured skin
| |
| − |
| |
| − | <li>4. It is intended to be used by penetration of body orifices
| |
| − |
| |
| − | <li>5. It is intended for surgically transient use
| |
| − |
| |
| − | <li>6. It is intended as an active medical device either for therapy or diagnosis (supplies energy)
| |
| − |
| |
| − | <li>7. It intended to incorporate a medicine
| |
| − |
| |
| − | <li>8. It is a device containing non-viable animal tissues, cells, or other substances, or microbial or recombinant tissues, cells, or other substances
| |
| − | </ol>
| |
| − | <br><br>
| |
| − | Clause number 8 clearly describes our medical device. Medical devices fitting the description of this clause belongs to class 3 unless the device contains only “tissues, cells or substances of animal origin that have been rendered non-viable" or “the device is intended by the manufacturer to come into contact with intact skin only <a href="#leg" aria-describedby="footnote-label" id="leg-ref"> </a> .If either of these subclauses applies, the <b>device is classified as class 1</b>. Our device contains viable cells, but since it is it only intended to be used on the skin it belongs to class 1.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | With that out of the way, we can evaluate the possibility of getting a CE marking for our product. Part of getting a CE marking is showing by means of clinical trial the efficacy of the product. After patch production, clinical trials would be a natural steps, and we have included this in our "Next steps" at the bottom of this page.
