About the Client

Otsuka Australia Pharmaceutical Pty Ltd is the local branch of the global healthcare company Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. With a focus on complex conditions like ADPKD (autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease), Otsuka is committed to delivering solutions that improve not only clinical outcomes but also the patient experience. In Australia, they are known for their innovative approach to holistic care and patient support.

The Challenge

Patients undergoing treatment for ADPKD often face overwhelming lifestyle changes and treatment requirements. Otsuka wanted to create a digital support tool that would:

  • Empower patients with educational content relevant to their condition
  • Help them track hydration and other daily health habits
  • Provide timely, easy-to-manage reminders for medications and checkups
  • Work seamlessly across both iOS and Android
  • Meet healthcare privacy and compliance standards
    The solution needed to be intuitive, private, and offline-capable—tailored specifically for real-world patient needs.
The Solution

We partnered with Otsuka to design and develop the IMADJIN® Patient Support App, a mobile-first experience built with empathy and precision. The solution included:

  • Interactive Health Tracking: A simple tool to log daily water intake and monitor kidney health habits.
  • Smart Reminders: Custom alerts to help patients stay on top of hydration, tests, and doctor visits.
  • Educational Hub: Accessible, jargon-free information to help users understand their condition and treatment journey.
  • Offline Access: Built to work reliably without internet—critical for use in clinics or remote areas.
  • Privacy by Design: Data encrypted in transit, no third-party data sharing, and compliance with Australian health data regulations.
The Results

Since its launch, the IMADJIN® app has become a trusted companion for patients managing ADPKD. Early results include:

  • Increased patient engagement and adherence to hydration goals
  • Improved self-management confidence through educational content
  • Seamless rollout across both app stores with no reported privacy issues
  • Positive feedback from patients and healthcare providers alike

It’s a clear example of how tech can meaningfully improve health outcomes when built with care and purpose.

Why it worked
  • We turn complexity into clarity: ADPKD is complex, but the app breaks it down into simple actions and insights patients can understand and use daily.
  • We’re not just builders – we’re product thinkers: Every feature was designed around real patient behavior, not just specs.
  • We plan with purpose, act with intent: From offline mode to privacy-first design, every decision was intentional and aligned with user needs.
  • We care deeply: This wasn’t just another health app—it was a meaningful tool for real people managing a lifelong condition.
  • We integrate, not just collaborate: We worked closely with Otsuka’s medical and regulatory teams to ensure the product aligned with their broader patient support vision.
