Deliverables
After document analysis, consentris produced a detailed report outlining the current reach of existing consents in relation to the use of cord blood. Subsequently, new consent documentation was drafted to assist in downstream commercialisation and improve consenters’ understanding of the documentation. Assistance was also given in relation to due diligence during difficult negotiations with a commercialisation partner.
