Summary of Pharmaceutica 2016 Conference:

Pharmaceutica 2016 conveys recent developments in Novel Drug Delivery Systems (NDDS), advances in drug delivery systems and approaches. 

Carrier-mediated drug delivery has emerged as a powerful methodology for the treatment of various pathologies. The therapeutic index of traditional and novel drugs is enhanced via the increase of specificity due to targeting of drugs to a particular tissue, cell or intracellular compartment, the control over release kinetics, the protection of the active agent or a combination of the above. Nanoparticles (NPs) were proposed as drug carriers over 30 years ago and have received growing attention since, mainly due to their stability, enhanced loading capabilities and control over physicochemical properties. The unique pathophysiology of solid tumors allows passive accumulation of NPs at these sites upon intravenous injection. Furthermore, stealth NPs with long circulation times are more efficient in reaching tumor tissue.

The global revenue for advanced drug delivery systems is estimated to be $151.3 billion in 2013. In 2018, revenues are estimated to reach nearly $173.8 billion, demonstrating a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 2.8%.

Europe contributed about 27% of the total drug delivery market in 2010 and was $36 billion. BCC expects this market to grow to $49 billion by 2016 at a CAGR of 5.6%

The global generics sector reached $269.8 billion in 2012. This sector is expected to reach $300.9 billion in 2013 and $518.5 billion in 2018, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.5%.

Scope and Importance:-

Pharmaceutical research indulges in making medicines from plant- and chemical-based compounds. They work to prevent the spread of disease, ease pain, cure illnesses, and slow the effects of aging, among many other things. Pharmaceutical companies' mission to discover the next ground breaking medicine is a big cause steeped in big bucks, big competition, and, at times, big controversy. Insiders refer to the handful of multinational giants that dominate the industry-Pfizer and GlaxoSmithKline, to name two of the largest-as Big Pharma.

Market Growth of Pharmaceutical Research in the last and upcoming ten years

Pharmaceuticals are one of the world's most profitable industries. During the last 30 years, the industry has spent billions of dollars on research and reaped billions in return. In 2008 alone, the pharmaceutical industry sold $773 billion in products worldwide-a number that has consistently grown for the past 8 years and is projected to increase again by 2.5 to 3.5 percent in 2017, according to the drug market research firm IMS Health.

But the process that turns research dollars into medicines is a slow and often arduous one. It now takes an average of 12 to 15 years and up to $1.7 billion for a drug to go from discovery to market, according to The Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America. And despite all the time and money invested, only a handful of drugs are approved by the FDA each year.

The arduous drug approval process reveals a central fact about Big Pharma: it's one of the most intensely regulated industries in the world. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and its European Union counterpart, the European Medicines Agency (EMEA), govern every aspect of a drug's development-from chemicals used in the drug and clinical study instructions, called protocols, to packaging components and marketing materials. This strict oversight is meant to protect patient safety, and pharma companies take regulatory oversight seriously. The constant pressure to adhere to government mandates shapes every aspect of a pharma firm's organization, operations, and culture. For example, drug companies maintain powerful regulatory affairs divisions-the departments that deal with government agencies-and they tend to be risk-averse.

Country Statistics:-

  • Growth in the EU5 is expected in the -1 to 2% range through 2016 compared to 3.8% for 2007-11, as national debt incurred due to the global economic crisis will be addressed through austerity programs and healthcare cost containment.
  • Limited savings from patent expires in the forecast period are prompting policy shifts to encourage greater use of generics and lower reimbursement, particularly in Spain.
  • Policies to examine the value newer medicines bring, when assessing their reimbursement prices, are being adopted in the UK with “value-based pricing” and in Germany with assessments under the AMNOG program.
  • Governments will take direct actions to control spending growth, or in some cases make real reductions, particularly in hospital spending.

Funds allotted to Pharmaceutical Research:

Worldwide:

Pharma companies have traditionally funded their internal R&D efforts totally on their own by investing 15% or more of their top line revenues to pay for these endeavours’. In addition, in order to tap into R&D going on outside their companies, pharma has financially supported external R&D efforts in deals with small biotech companies, research institutes, and universities. In fact, as funding for agencies like the NIH has stagnated over recent years, pharma has become an important source of funds to support early stage research.

Despite R&D budgets in the billions of dollars, pharma is now seeking to supplement their internal R&D investments with outside funding. One source has been major foundations.  The recent Cystic Fibrosis Foundation investment of $58 million into Pfizer R&D to support new research into areas for this disease is a perfect example. The justification for such deals is that pharma companies have a proven R&D track record for delivering new medicines, and the foundations feel that, by tapping into these scientists, they can maximize their chances for getting breakthrough medications.

Now Pharma has found a new investor for its R&D efforts – the U.S. government. In what is being hailed as the a “first-of-its-kind” collaboration, GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) has entered into a potential $200 million antibiotics pact with the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA), a division of Health & Human Services (HHS), to develop drugs to fight antibiotic resistance and bioterrorism. HHS will provide $40 million for the first 18 months of the deal to develop several antibiotics in the GSK portfolio. The work will be monitored by a joint BARDA-GSK committee and, if warranted, the agreement can be renewed with HHS providing additional funding of up to a total of $200 million over 5 years.

Welcome Message

by

Dr. Volkmar Weissig

Organizing Committee Member

 

On behalf of the Organizing Committee I have the great pleasure to welcome all participants to the 8th International Conference and Exhibition on Pharmaceutics & Novel Drug Delivery Systems (“Pharmaceutica 2016”). This conference, being held March 07-09, 2016 in Madrid, Spain is the continuation of a highly successful series of global meetings about novel drug delivery strategies which is being organized by OMICS International, a renowned and leading organization specialized in launching and managing pharmaceutical conferences throughout the globe.

The development of new and highly efficient means to deliver a drug selectively to its molecular target site is crucial for a significant increase of the therapeutic index of old and new drugs alike. The preclinical and clinical development of any Investigational New Drug should go hand in hand with exploring new approaches towards its delivery on the tissue, cellular and subcellular level. Accordingly and not surprisingly, the global revenue for new drug delivery systems in 2018 is estimated to reach over $173 billion, corresponding to a CAGR of 2.8%.

Pharmaceutica 2016 will be attended by over 300 participants involving academic and industrial scientists, industrial experts and decision-makers. 5 Keynote Speakers and over 50 Plenary Speakers will introduce and discuss cutting edge developments in a large number of areas among them pre-formulation, delivery routes, drug delivery technology including major challenges and relevant physiological considerations, drug targeting, nanopharmaceuticals and diverse applications of nanotechnology in pharmaceutical research and development, drug delivery systems applied to vaccine development, biotherapeutics-drug discovery, smart delivery systems and medical devices, delivery methods for biologics as well as aspects of global drug policy. In addition, this conference also includes more than 20 industrial exhibitors, 14 innovative educational sessions and over 5 workshops.

I am confident all participants, students, experts and policy makers alike me will immensely benefit from Pharmaceutica 2016. I am looking forward to a highly interesting and informative meeting, to critical and above all stimulating deliberations and last but not least to getting to know many new colleagues working in a field dear to all of us.
