Foreword
The EvaluatePharma® World Preview 2019 comes at one of the most exciting
points in the industry’s development. The convergence of tech and health is
becoming reality, while the promise of cell and gene therapy is finally being
delivered to patients.
With such technological advances that could offer hope of real cures and the
growing demand from emerging economies, reaching the report’s forecast of
$1.18trn sales in 2024 could become a reality.
As ever there are potential hurdles to achieve these sales. The advances in cutting
edge science are, for now, outpacing the traditional pricing and reimbursement
systems the industry has been built on. This disconnect is leaving both patients
and payers wondering how accessible these life-altering products will be.
And as more and more gene therapies enter the market the questions around their
additional burden on an already stretched healthcare industry will only intensify.
The commercialisation of these new technologies come as discussions around
wider drug pricing are heating up ahead of the 2020 US presidential elections – and
regardless of the outcome, the political and social momentum to address rising drug
prices is unlikely to go away.
But the picture is not all gloom. Even with pricing pressure there remains significant
unmet need within the industry, which will continue to drive innovation and drug sales.
One example of this is that the report finds that the most valuable R&D treatment is
Vertex Pharmaceuticals’ orphan drug triplet treatment for cystic fibrosis, with 2024
sales forecast to hit $4.27bn.
The increasing convergence of tech and healthcare will also provide fresh
opportunities for the industry.
We are already seeing the use of real world evidence to measure the actual
performance of drugs post approval and drive future investment decisions. Machine
learning techniques are being employed not only to speed up drug discovery, but
also drug development with the hope that data-driven approaches will help reduce
R&D costs and industry failure rates.

Inclusion criteria: Analysis refers to products which are in US clinical development (Phase 1-3), or filed with the FDA. Only NMEs with no prior
global approval are included, with risk adjustments applied to approval of US lead indication only, follow-on indications are excluded.
Methodology: ‘Clinical Development Spend’ by Therapeutic Category is calculated using EvaluatePharma Vision’s proprietary R&D
Cost model and represents the sum of the costs of all commercial clinical trials currently listed on ClinicalTrials.gov for products currently
in active clinical development (PI-Filed) – clinical development spend is typically 50% of total R&D expenditure. ‘Risk Adjusted FDA
Approvals’ represents the total number of approvals expected from the industry’s current pipeline by Therapeutic Category after applying
EvaluatePharma Vision’s proprietary product-specific PTRS (Probability of Technical & Regulatory Success) to adjust for the level of risk
associated with each pipeline candidate. NPV sourced from EvaluatePharma Vision on May 14th, 2019.
Colour coding: The colour applied to ‘Risk Adjusted FDA Approvals’ and ‘WW 2024 Sales’ percentages refer to being above (green) or
below (red) the ‘Clinical Development Spend’ percentage. The blue colour scale reflects the range within that column, with the darker shade
representing a higher number.
