Overall, generic drugs are substantially less expensive than branded products and their promotion can lead to a reduction in drug costs and increased availability. Generic substitution is a cost-effective strategy for containing drug expenditure and has considerable potential for contributing to cost savings. The aim of generic substitution is to provide an economic incentive for countries with health insurance schemes to pro- mote the use of low/cost generic equivalents. Recent experience in Finland shows how substitution with a cheaper alternative increased competition between pharmaceutical companies and lead to substantial cost savings amounting to nearly 40 million in six months. The amount saved in one year was approximately 5% of the total cost of all reimbursed medicines. Generic substitution in Finland Generic substitution operates within a price Generic substitution aims at promoting cost- “corridor”.

Savings are made the cheapest or close to the cheapest inter- both by actually replacing products with less changeable generic or parallel import product. expensive alternatives, and by promoting tougher The lowest limit within this corridor is the lowest price competition between pharmaceutical price of a substitutable product and the upper companies.

  • Xenoport Hurt by Solzira NDA Withdrawal
    November 11, 2008 Xenoport hurt by Solzira NDA withdrawal Evaluate Vantage News that Xenoport and partner GlaxoSmithKline’s recent application for restless legs syndrome (RLS) drug Solzira will have to be withdrawn, with the FDA requesting that data from a single trial be re-formatted, caused Xenoport’s shares to fall 13% yesterday to a new 18-month low of $34.44. With a potential 4-6 month delay to approval and the postponement of a $23m milestone that Xenoport was due to receive from Glaxo on the FDA’s acceptance of Solzira’s NDA, senior executives at the specialty US company could be forgiven for feeling somewhat aggrieved with Glaxo for this apparent oversight, given the pharma giant’s supposed experience and expertise in regulatory filings. The setback to Solzira and resulting slump in Xenoport’s share price suggests that shareholders who have not fled the stock will be even more desperate for positive phase IIb data for GERD treatment, XP19986 (Event - XenoPort looking for end of year trial lift, October 10, 2008). Formatting issues Avoiding these kinds of regulatory pitfalls, after all the cost and hard work involved in taking a drug through clinical development, is becoming an increasingly important factor behind a company’s decision to sign up a big pharma partner in today’s tougher regulatory environment. Both companies were naturally keen to stress that the NDA withdrawal has nothing to do with the content of the filing, which probably makes the rejection on a technicality all the more frustrating for Xenoport. Whilst the FDA requested the data from one particular study to be re-formatted, Glaxo has decided to review the formatting of other data sets in the application, presumably to ensure there can be no further grounds for rejection.
