AstraZeneca is an international innovative biopharmaceutical company whose goal is to expand the capabilities of modern science to create drugs that change the lives of patients for the better. We strive to focus our resources on those therapeutic areas where our input is most needed. Our investments are primarily focused on research and development in areas such as cardiology and metabolic disorders, oncology, respiratory, inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Russia is one of the key markets for AstraZeneca. In October 2015, a grand opening of the company's plant in Russia took place on the territory of the Kaluga Region. The total investment in the establishment of the enterprise amounted to USD 224 million. In addition, AstraZeneca is one of the largest companies investing in scientific and research activities. In Russia, we conduct clinical trials, which today include more than six thousand patients. We are also working to strengthen the evidence base, and seven and a half thousand patients are taking part in our real-life clinical trials. In addition, in 2016 we expanded our scientific cooperation with the Russian Society of Clinical Oncology and continued our partnership with the Skolkovo biomedical cluster. Мы тесно работаем с медицинским сообществом, чтобы обеспечить российских пациентов инновационными препаратами для лечения социально-значимых заболеваний. Для нас важно внести вклад в совершенствование обмена знаниями в российском медицинском сообществе, информируя специалистов здравоохранения о новейших научных разработках. Мы уверены, что вовлечение российских ученых в международные исследовательские проекты станет залогом инновационного развития российской науки и привнесет наш опыт в сфере научных исследований и разработок, накопленный по всему миру, в Россию. Неизменно следуя своим ценностям, среди которых лидерство в науке, стремление побеждать и выбирать правильный путь, поддерживать дух новаторства и предприимчивости, мы работаем в России на благо пациентов, интересы которых для нас превыше всего!
