A digital cancer therapy built to support more effective care

The Mika app is intended to reduce the effects of cancer-related distress in patients and to empower healthcare providers and life science partners with data-driven treatment insights.

Our key partnerships

Reliable digital intervention

Mika delivers digital psycho-oncological support, physical rehabilitation training, nutritional recommendations, and rigorously fact-checked, doctor-validated educational content.

Trusted by cancer patients

Mika has already enabled over 100,000 patients to proactively monitor their condition, prepare for consultations, and take better care of their physical and emotional needs.

Developed with leading institutions

Mika is co-developed with leading oncology institutes like Charité Berlin, University Hospital Leipzig, University Hospital Düsseldorf and Germany’s top cancer treatment centers.

Support patients, optimize therapies

Cancer patients can lack access to reliable information, adequate emotional support, and simple training methods that boost overall wellbeing.

The Mika app fills this gap and provides patients with a proactive way to drive their own self-care, track symptoms and side effects, and educate themselves about their condition.

As an addition to prescribed therapies, Mika can give patients a sense of agency and help them build the resilience they need to minimize treatment breakpoints.

Life science partners can use Mika’s data insights to shine a light on how patients experience their treatments day to day so they can optimize pharmacotherapies.

The right treatment for the right patient at the right time

Life science companies have a severely limited view of how oncology patients respond to and experience their pharmacotherapies.

With Mika, life science teams can gain the visibility they need to optimize support and access programs as well as patient and care team education.

They can also gather insights to inform the development of new therapies and treatment regimes. Operating more effectively can help life science teams achieve the Quadruple Aim.
