background
The first new CIDP treatment in over 30 years
The first new CIDP treatment in over 30 years
The first new CIDP treatment in over 30 years
Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) is a rare autoimmune condition that causes weakness and numbness in the arms and legs. My client, argenx, has developed a groundbreaking treatment called VYVGART Hytrulo, which can be administered in as little as 30 to 90 seconds.
To educate potential patients about this innovative treatment, argenx hosted a Virtual Product Premiere to introduce VYVGART Hytrulo. Our project’s goal was to design a user-friendly digital experience that simplified event registration, enabled easy to use live viewing, and provided an accessible platform to host and replay the event recording for on-demand access.
Success Criteria
Our client and team set clear objectives to ensure the online experience met both patient and business needs. The overarching goal was to deliver an engaging and memorable event for patients while generating excitement around this milestone moment.

Users

James
James is a CIDP patient who has experienced multiple treatment options to manage their condition. He is accustomed to lengthy infusion sessions lasting around four hours, enduring treatment-related side effects such as the "treatment hangover," and making do with therapies that fall short of ideal. Beyond seeking improved treatments, he values a sense of community and a space to share his experiences.

As a dedicated supporter, Janet is a caregiver who has witnessed the patient navigate both good and challenging days. She has observed her loved one endure the physical and emotional toll of the disease, the side effects of treatment, and the frustration of misdiagnoses. She is deeply invested in finding solutions that can ease the burden for both the patient and themselves.

User problem
For over 30 years, the CIDP community has been waiting for a more effective treatment option. Patients and caregivers often struggle to access reliable information and resources about the disease, leaving them feeling isolated and unsupported. Without a clear care plan or a strong support system, their daily lives—and long-term health outcomes—can be significantly impacted.

constraints
Like any project, we faced a couple of constraints that we had to work within.
Tight timing: With the urgency of announcing the new treatment immediately following its launch, we had just three months to take the project from concept to completion.
Strict legal review: The pharmaceutical industry’s inherent complexities meant every design had to undergo rigorous scrutiny by an external legal review team to ensure compliance with regulatory standards.
Client reviews: In addition to internal creative reviews, we worked closely with an external client who had specific needs, preferences, and feedback that had to be incorporated throughout the process.

team dynamic
Working with a large team presents unique advantages and challenges, particularly when navigating tight timelines. To maximize efficiency, clear and consistent communication was essential. This meant:
Collaborating closely with project management teams to streamline project organization and timelines
Addressing process bottlenecks with upper management
Maintaining regular touchpoints with tech teams to ensure designs were feasible within the given timeframe.
This proactive approach helped align all stakeholders and kept the workflow on track.

Design system
Our goal was to develop a design system that aligned with the established VYVGART Hytrulo branding while introducing unique visual and experiential elements to distinguish the event. This approach ensured brand consistency while creating an engaging and memorable identity specific to the Virtual Product Premiere.

Figma design system
We created a comprehensive Figma design system from the ground up for the VYVGART Hytrulo for CIDP website. This system was built to support not only the Virtual Product Premiere but also any future pages on the site, ensuring consistency, scalability, and flexibility across all digital touchpoints.

component library
We developed a versatile component library for this project by leveraging existing component structures. This approach reduced pressure on the development team while ensuring a cohesive and consistent visual identity across this site and other branded sites under our brand umbrella. At the same time, we tailored the design to create a distinct look for the Breaking Through Today event, making it clear to users that this site was unique to the event experience.

full page design
We designed the final RSVP page with the primary goal of encouraging event sign-ups while generating excitement around the Breaking Through Today virtual event and the introduction of the new treatment. The design prioritized clarity, ease of use, and visual appeal to ensure a seamless user experience that engaged patients and highlighted the event’s purpose.

rsvp form
The RSVP form was designed to provide a simple, intuitive signup process while gathering essential information about each user. The primary goal was to understand where patients were in their treatment journey, allowing for the delivery of tailored, relevant resources and information that matched their unique needs and experiences.
The flow of the form included 3 scenarios with different options for each. The flow differed between users depending on their past experiences with treatment. The goal was to make the form as easy to fill out for each user as possible starting with simply filling out the user email address. If the user had not given argenx much demographic information in the past, the more questions the user had to ask. By using frame by frame form fields, we aimed to make the RSVP process as streamlined as possible. By creating multiple scenarios, we cut down the questions where we could for patients who had already provided this information in the past.

post event streaming
To extend the value of the event, we created a dedicated post-event page where users could access the event recording and additional resources tailored for patients. This page served as a hub, ensuring that even those who missed the live event could watch it at their convenience while exploring valuable materials to support their treatment journey.

The post-event page also served as a gateway to other valuable resources for patients. With clear calls to action, the page guided users to explore additional materials and helpful information tailored to their needs, further supporting their treatment journey.
