Fighting serious illness takes more than pioneering science and vital medicines; it also requires partnerships with healthcare professionals and patient advocates who provide programs that advance science and patient care. 

As part of Amgen’s mission to serve patients, the company is proud to support organizations and programs that:

• Educate health care professionals on disease prevention, diagnosis and treatment, including the safe and appropriate uses of Amgen products;
• Offer important services for patients and their caregivers, such as disease awareness and screening;
• Advance science education;
• Improve quality of care and access for patients;
• And make meaningful differences in our communities.

Amgen discloses donations and grants made by the Amgen Medical Education Department and the Amgen Foundation because we are committed to open sharing of information with all who have an interest in our business practices. In addition to disclosing donations and grants, Amgen also makes available on this website summaries of dozens of company policies and practices on issues such as ethical research, clinical data disclosure, responsible marketing practices, and ethical business conduct.
