Creating Success in the
“New” Biotech Marketplace
US Healthcare Today
1. Greater scientific understanding and development technology is moving us
toward “Individualized” treatments
2. Development science is progressing faster than Regulatory capacity
3. Increased medical technology and longer time lines continue to increase
the cost of pharmaceutical products and overall healthcare
4. Government participation and private insurance have attempted to facilitate
access to healthcare, but as costs have outpaced insurance coverage,
consumers now bear an increasing portion of the healthcare bill resulting in
an increase in un- and under-insured
Result*: “The United States spends twice as much for each person on
healthcare as most industrialized countries. But has fallen to
dead last in preventing death through use of timely and effective
medical care”
* Report by the Commonwealth Fund, July 2008

Impact on the Pharmaceutical Industry
1. Increased development costs necessitated greater and more timely
pay-back from marketed products, driving more intense market
competition


Cost synergies and development efficiencies form industry consolidation
have largely been unrealized
Increased promotional spend through traditional channels has produced
declining returns
2. Increased individual contribution to the cost and lack of access to
adequate healthcare have resulted an increased susceptibility to
economic fluctuations


Physician visits are declining, even among those diagnosed with chronic
illness
Annual prescription growth is at the lowest level since the 1960’s
The economic situation has exposed a pharmaceutical
industry model that is “broken”
Pharmaceutical companies are developing and
promoting products largely in the same way
that they did in the 1980’s, even though the
environment has changed dramatically.
As a result . . . .
. . .R&D spending continues to rise, but the yield in
new product approvals has declined

What Is Changing?
Key Change Drivers
 Greater scientific
understanding and
development technology is
moving us toward
“Individualized” treatments
 These newer, more
sophisticated products will
continue to drive treatment
costs and increased consumer
participation
 Scientific, treatment and
economic factors will be
considered for product
approvals
Continuing Current Trends
•
Blockbuster products with $multi-billion annual
sales all but disappear
•
Higher science continues to drive development
costs
•
Comparative studies become part of the
development process
•
Biosimilars and generics continue to expand
•
Increased public awareness and outcry over
healthcare costs
•
Increased management and regulation of the
marketplace
•
Companies look toward globalization to expand
markets
