SPECIAL REPORT: Lessons Learned in the Pharma Industry, 2008

Decision Resources, Inc, December 2008, Days: 65

Introduction

2008 will come to be known as the year when real change started to take hold across the pharmaceutical industry. While some company leaderships may have been reluctant to alter the status quo in past years, 2009 looms as a new beginning to invest in those industry-altering steps that will bring long-term success. In this report, we discuss the top ten events/issues of 2008 and the lessons they offer for the pharma industry.

Get the Answers You Need to Shape Your Strategy

- Healthcare reform is the number three priority in President-Elect Barack Obama’s administration. What can companies expect in the way of reform? What cost-containment measures are likely? What advantages are arising?

- The research-based pharmaceutical industry faces many pricing and reimbursement challenges in all the major markets. What are they? What healthcare management tools did employers use in 2008 to manage their costs? What new deal-making activities are taking hold?

- Eli Lilly CEO John C. Lechleiter says we are close “to realizing the most extraordinary breakthroughs of all time in human health.” Why is personalized medicine so important? And achievable? Why is the diagnostics industry in the catbird’s seat?

- The R&D function at most pharma companies has become critically dependent on in licensing or acquiring products and companies to fill pipelines. What are companies doing to protect and nurture this revenue stream? What is a good indicator of the quality of a company’s internal R&D versus its partnering strategies?

- The pharma industry has been stalled in a model of drug development that has centered for years on the fully integrated pharma company (FIPCO) and the blockbuster drug. Is there an imperative for a shift in pharmaceutical business models? Does adopting a new approach necessitate abandoning the previous one? How does the industry transform itself from where it is now to where it needs to be? What strategies are pharma companies using to improve their bottom line?
