I partnered with imre as a freelance UX/UI designer to assist in updating various Bavencio websites designs. The goal was to create a responsive, accessible experience that served healthcare professionals, patients, and caregivers with clear pathways and updated treatment resources. The final design improved navigation, mobile usability, and overall clarity while aligning with strict healthcare compliance standards.

The problem
The Bavencio website was not meeting the needs of its core audiences: healthcare professionals, patients, and caregivers. The client asked for a redesign that would improve accessibility, responsiveness, and clarity while staying compliant with healthcare communication standards.

Business Challenges
My role was to translate client and stakeholder feedback into a user-focused digital experience. I delivered designs iteratively, using client feedback cycles to refine navigation, layout, and content presentation. I worked closely with the imre team to:

Navigation Issues

‍Navigation was difficult, making it hard to find treatment resources.

Poor Optimization

‍‍The site design was not fully optimized for mobile or tablet users.

Content Update

‍‍Content updates from the client had not been consistently applied, leading to gaps and outdated information.
The Approach
Reduce Friction Through Iteration
My role was to translate client and stakeholder feedback into a user-focused digital experience. I delivered designs iteratively, using client feedback cycles to refine navigation, layout, and content presentation. I worked closely with the imre team to:

Audit

‍Audit existing site flows and identify friction points.

Update

‍‍‍Update content structures so users could quickly determine if Bavencio was a treatment option worth discussing with their healthcare provider.

Create

‍‍‍Create responsive wireframes and high-fidelity mockups in line with brand guidelines.

Improvements
File Quality
My role was to translate client and stakeholder feedback into a user-focused digital experience. I delivered designs iteratively, using client feedback cycles to refine navigation, layout, and content presentation. I worked closely with the imre team to:

Teamwork Improved

‍Drastically improved speed of revisions as repeat work was reduced for components and standardization across all supported efforts.

Increased Accuracy

‍Future improvements and iterations were made faster and more accurately.

Improve Brand Trust

‍Bavencio website was more consistent across mobile through web user experience.

Mechanism of Action
Diagram illustrating the mechanism of action of Bavencio, a PD-L1 inhibitor that activates dual immune function by restoring adaptive immunity and engaging innate immunity. It shows a T cell with a PD-1 receptor interacting with a tumor cell expressing PD-L1, with Bavencio blocking PD-L1 to restore T cell-mediated immune response. On the other side, an NK cell with Fcγ receptor interacts with the tumor cell, where Bavencio also acts to enable NK cell-mediated tumor cell lysis via ADCC. Text notes preclinical and in vitro data may not correlate with clinical outcomes.

Patient Needs
Informational graphic for Bavencio (avelumab) targeting patients with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma (UC). The header states Clinical Considerations for Identifying Personalized Treatment Goals. Key message: deeper discussions help strategize patient care using preferred regimens that improve treatment experience and overall survival (OS). Oncologists strongly prefer treatments that improve OS. About 80% of patients are eligible for first-line platinum-containing chemotherapy, but many are not treated with it. Approximately 8 in 10 patients achieved disease control in randomized trials of Bavencio maintenance after platinum chemotherapy. Bavencio maintenance is recommended as NCCN Category 1 immunotherapy for certain UC patients not progressed on first-line treatment. The bottom lists references and clarifies Bavencio use as a maintenance option based on high-evidence guidelines.
