The first phase was how do we build a pipeline to be delivered in 2015, 2016, 2017 when we had loss of exclusiv- ity on key products, with Lantus being the last major drug after Plavix and others that lost their patents. The goal was how to do it without breaking the bank,” Zerhouni told Scrip in a recent interview. That initial revamp involved overhauling the pipeline and trimming 19 Phase II and Phase III programs from Sanofi’s R&D pipe- line between 2009 and 2012. Some of the programs missed Phase II endpoints.

  • Whale Watching: What a Decade of Change at Big Pharma Taught Us About Corporate Phenotypes by Endpoints Contributor on April 25Th, 2019
    Whale watching: What a decade of change at Big Pharma taught us about corporate phenotypes by Endpoints Contributor on April 25th, 2019 Contributed by Forbion Authored by Ivan Burkov1,2, Asiya Giniatullina1, Geert-Jan Mulder1, Sander van Deventer1,3,4 Affiliations: 1: Forbion; 2: Inkef Capital; 3: uniQure biopharma BV; 4: Leiden University Medical Center Confronted with decreasing R&D productivity and scarcity of true new blockbusters, pharmaceutical companies continuously seek growth opportunities by adopting new organizational structures and business strategies. These changes can be distinguished into global adaptive trends within the industry, such as the development of transformative therapies for rare diseases, and pharma-specific approaches, for instance the choice between relying on organic growth or increasing partnering and business development activities. Understanding the drivers behind strategic changes within the pharmaceutical industry is of significant interest to numerous stakeholders, including venture capitalists. Therefore, we have attempted to capture and explain recent key change events for several companies within the big pharma league. This “whale watching” exercise has revealed interesting insights regarding the industry and helped us to identify key behavioral patterns of big pharma companies. In our analysis, we have studied a representative sample of some of the largest multinational public pharma companies, looking at three key types of events that happened over the past decade: mergers and acquisitions (M&A), divestments, and key corporate development events (such as restructuring and strategy shifts). We have made use of the Global Data and publicly available resources to compile the dataset. Below we describe our findings and discuss their relevance in light of the ongoing evolution of the pharmaceutical and biotech industries.

  • Meet the New Lantus, Same As the Old Lantus
    February 26, 2015 Meet the new Lantus, same as the old Lantus Jonathan Gardner The good news for Sanofi is that the all-important extension of its insulin franchise, Toujeo, earned first-pass FDA approval. The bad news is that the regulator does not think it is much different from predecessor Lantus. Toujeo’s failure to achieve a claim of hypoglycaemia benefit makes it look rather undifferentiated at a time when the French group must cut prices to preserve Lantus market share and prepare for the launch of competitors. With just 16 months left in the patent life of its biggest seller, Sanofi’s board will be handing incoming chief executive Olivier Brandicourt a challenging dossier when he assumes control in April. Non-inferior, not superior Lantus, a once-daily insulin, is the best-selling drug in the diabetes space and third-biggest pharma product in the world. Although it has withstood a test in novel offerings from Novo Nordisk, first with Levemir and then with the Europe-only product Tresiba, its patent estate will evaporate in mid-2016 when a judicial stay lifts on the launch of Eli Lilly’s biosimilar, Basaglar (Lilly needs diabetes foundation to remain firm, January 31, 2014). To protect sales of its top franchise, Sanofi has developed Toujeo, a more concentrated depot formulation of Lantus’ active ingredient, insulin glargine, that has a slower and more sustained release. The objective was to achieve a flatter delivery curve to avoid insulin peaks that can lead to dangerous dips in blood sugar – most importantly, the nocturnal hypoglycaemia that can go unnoticed and result in greater complications.

Never- theless, observers were surprised that the search produced a candidate so quickly to replace the Frenchman, who Weinberg thanked “for the energy with which he has steered the group through a complex period and for his decisive contribution Hudson To Succeed Brandicourt to the company’s return to growth.” As Sanofi CEO TSCHUDIN NEW PHARMA HEAD FOR NOVARTIS KEVIN GROGAN [email protected] Hudson’s replacement will be Marie- France Tschudin, currently president of anofi’s search for a new CEO to re- Hudson has built up Advanced Accelerator Applications SA, place Olivier Brandicourt, who has the French nuclear medicine specialist Sdecided to retire, has ended with an impressive track that Novartis acquired last year, gaining the appointment of Paul Hudson, head of access to its approved peptide receptor ra- pharma at Novartis AG, to its top post.
