Market dynamics:
The “race for new Drugs”
• Drivers
• Industry growth rate expectations
• Expiring patent portfolio
• Declining drug exclusivity
• Increasing R&D cost
• Long development time effecting current and future profits
• Industry impact
• Consolidation
• Resource shortage
• Outsourcing
• Increased investments
• Genomics
• Proteomics
• Chemistry
• HTS
• Informatics
• The Human Genome project:
• Completed in 2000
• 30,000 to 35,000 mainly unknown genes
• 5,000 to 10,000 potential targets vs 500 to date
• Genetic code variations (SNPs) open the possibility for “pharmacogenomics”
• The “Post Genomic era” : what needs to be done:
• Identify the function of all genes
• Determine their association with disease states
• Determine which ones can be targeted with drugs
• Discover and develop the Drugs !!
Global pharma R&D continues to grow
