Dieses Buch untersucht und beleuchtet die wichtigsten Herausforderungen, denen sich die pharmazeutische Industrie in einem zunehmend wettbewerbsorientierten Umfeld mit inflationären F&E-Investitionen und verschärftem Kostendruck stellen muss. Die Autoren stellen drei Quellen der pharmazeutischen Innovation vor: neue Managementmethoden in der Arzneimittelentwicklung, neue Technologien als Voraussetzung für Spitzenforschung und -entwicklung und neue Formen der Zusammenarbeit und Internationalisierung, wie z. B. Open Innovation in den frühen Phasen der Forschung und Entwicklung. Neue Modelle und Methoden werden anhand von Fallbeispielen aus Europa, den USA und Asien illustriert. Diese dritte, vollständig überarbeitete Auflage wurde erweitert, um die neuesten Entwicklungen im Bereich der offenen und kollaborativen Innovation, die größere strategische Bedeutung von Risikokapital und Investitionen in der Frühphase sowie die neue Palette an aufkommenden Technologien, die jetzt in der pharmazeutischen Innovation eingesetzt werden, zu berücksichtigen.

This book investigates and highlights the most critical challenges the pharmaceutical industry faces in an increasingly competitive environment of inflationary R&D investments and tightening cost control pressures. The authors present three sources of pharmaceutical innovation: new management methods in the drug development pipeline; new technologies as enablers for cutting-edge R&D; and new forms of cooperation and internationalization, such as open innovation in the early phases of R&D. New models and methods are illustrated with cases from Europe, the US, and Asia. This third fully revised edition was expanded to reflect the latest updates in open and collaborative innovation, the greater strategic importance of venture capital and early-stage investments, and the new range of emerging technologies now being put to use in pharmaceutical innovation.

This practical guide for advanced students and decision-makers in the pharma and biotech industry presents key success factors in R&D along with value creators in pharmaceutical innovation. A team of editors and authors with extensive experience in academia and industry and at some of the most prestigious business schools in Europe discusses in detail the innovation process in pharma as well as common and new research and innovation strategies. In doing so, they cover collaboration and partnerships, open innovation, biopharmaceuticals, translational medicine, good manufacturing practice, regulatory affairs, and portfolio management. Each chapter covers controversial aspects of recent developments in the pharmaceutical industry, with the aim of stimulating productive debates on the most effective and efficient innovation processes. A must-have for young professionals and MBA students preparing to enter R&D in pharma or biotech as well as for students on a combined BA/biomedical and natural sciences program.
