Supporting independent medical education, contributing to advancements in medical and scientific research, and supporting initiatives that enhance both patient experiences and the diabetes care community.

Independent Educational Grants

Xeris Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is committed to supporting high-quality, unbiased, evidence-based independent medical education for the healthcare community. This medical education is fair-balanced, and is planned and implemented without influence from our industry or company.

Designed for healthcare professionals, patients, payors, and health systems, medical education should be developed to:

  • Improve knowledge, increase understanding, and support behavioral change
  • Close clinical and practice gaps
  • Improve the quality and delivery of medical care for patients

Investigator Initiated Studies (IIS)

Xeris is a specialty pharmaceutical company committed to developing medications and supporting research to address unmet medical needs. We are currently focused in the therapeutic area of severe hypoglycemia.

Severe hypoglycemia is an emergency condition where very low blood sugar may lead to confusion, seizure, unconsciousness, and if left untreated, death. It requires immediate treatment with fast-acting carbohydrates or the use of glucagon.

Glucagon, when used in the form of the traditional powder glucagon emergency kit, requires multiple steps to prepare and administer successfully. This may make it difficult for a patient to receive a full dose of glucagon in an emergency situation.

Development of patient and caregiver tools

We are dedicated to developing tools for those living with diabetes and their caregivers that simplify the administration of a full dose of glucagon — to immediately and successfully treat severe hypoglycemia.

Independent research reviews and support

We offer the opportunity for external researchers interested in conducting their own research related to our current therapeutic areas of interest to submit an independent research concept. The concept is then reviewed by an internal review committee. Xeris may provide funding and other resources, such as clinical trial material, to support studies initiated and sponsored by external researchers.

If you are interested in submitting a concept related to liquid stable, ready‑to‑use glucagon, please contact: iis@xerispharma.com

Concepts will be prioritized based on scientific merit and relevance to the Xeris clinical and development program.
