Angels for Change and Every Cure Announce Collaboration to Advance Patient Access to Repurposed Medicines

Shared commitment to ensuring patients receive the medicines they need when and where they are needed

TAMPA, FL – June 11, 2026 – Today, Angels for Change and Every Cure announced a collaboration aimed at strengthening patient access to repurposed medicines and advancing a more resilient, patient-centered healthcare system.

Angels for Change and Every Cure share a commitment to ensuring patients have access to the treatments they need– whether that means discovering and advancing new uses for existing medicines or ensuring those medicines are available when patients need them. By combining expertise in drug shortages, supply chain resilience, and drug repurposing, the partnership will support shared efforts to expand access to lifesaving therapies. Particularly for generic essential medicines that form the backbone of healthcare. 

Generic medicines are the backbone of healthcare, but for too many patients, access is not guaranteed.

“Generic medicines are the backbone of healthcare, but for too many patients, access is not guaranteed,” said Laura Bray, Chief Change Maker at Angels for Change. “Through this partnership with Every Cure, we are working to ensure that existing medicines are both reimagined for new uses and consistently available, so no patient goes without care. It’s time to build a supply chain that delivers for both today’s therapies and tomorrow’s cures.”

“Innovation and access must go hand in hand,” said David Fajgenbaum, MD, MBA, MSc, Co-Founder and President of Every Cure. “Together with Angels for Change, we are working toward a future where no patient is denied treatment, whether due to lack of identified treatments or lack of supply.”
