Summary

Since the year 2000 mid-sized pharmaceutical companies have out performed their larger rivals – they have grown more rapidly, produced better profits and have performed far better on the world's stock markets.

There are many reasons why this has happened; big pharma is facing a multitude of serious problems that it did not realise were important just a few years ago. Now there are major issues with public perception, an innovation deficit and increased regulation. The lessons for big Pharma are clear and this report provides a challenging analysis of the factors involved, including:

  • The failure of the blockbuster model
  • R&D productivity
  • Therapy Focus
  • Specialist markets
  • Informed consumers
  • The cost of drugs
  • Tougher regulation
  • Drug withdrawals

This report is essential reading for anyone in the biotech, pharmaceutical and clinical outsourcing industries from corporate management through development and research to marketing and sales.  It gives an authoritative, detailed and clear explanation of the issues surrounding mid-sized Pharma and their implications for the market and for the biotech and pharmaceutical industries.
