Astellas focuses on improving global health and access to medicines.
In May 2024, Astellas donated more than 2,000 boxes of Prograf® to Tanzania as its first product donation.
The partnership with Direct Relief ensures that the donated Prograf®will be used effectively in Tanzania, aiding patients who require immunosuppressive therapy to maintain their health post-transplantation. This collaboration is a testament to Astellas’ mission of making a positive impact on global health through sustainable practices and strategic partnerships, and aligns with its Access to Medicines Strategy to improve access to medicines throughout the product lifecycle.
Astellas’ Access to Medicines (AtM) Steering Committee is committed to advancing sustainable access to medicines and improving health outcomes in communities worldwide where Astellas does not have a business presence.
