Optimising Patient Outcomes in Respiratory Medicine with Digital Healthcare Devices
This session was originally broadcast as part of the CPHI Worldwide 2021 digital content programme.
When patients self-administer their medications, 60% do not take them as intended, and over half of all patients are non-adherent. The resulting cost of non-adherence and non-optimised therapy is steep, and everyone pays the price, from pharmaceutical companies and payers to HCPs and their patients. The cost of non-adherence alone is US$300 billion per year, with $188 billions of US pharma revenue lost. The rules around healthcare engagement are now being rewritten with connected ecosystems and the ability to link self-administered medications to disease management solutions. Technology has the potential to augment patient care, deliver value across the digital health ecosystem and deliverCPHI

Whitepaper Clinical Development Success Rates and Contributing Factors 2011-2020: Download the Report
Clinical Development Success Rates and Contributing Factors 2011-2020
Biologics have 9.1% likelihood of making it through the clinic to approval, compared to 5.7% for new molecular entities, according to this analysis of 10 years of Biomedtracker drug development data by BIO, Informa Pharma Intelligence and QLS, available for download here.
Biologic products advance through clinical development with a higher success rate than traditional small molecules, a new analysis of clinical development success from Informa Pharma Intelligence, the Biotechnology Industry Organization and the Quantitative Life Sciences shows.
“Biological complexity in drug modalities generally leads to higher LOA,” or likelihood of approval, the analysis concludes. New molecular entities – conventional small molecules – have a 5.7% chance of moving through all three phases of clinical trials to US Food and Drug Administration approval, while biologics had a 9.1% probability. Vaccines – with 10 times fewer candidates than other biologics – clocked in with a 9.7% chance of a Phase I candidate eventually gaining approval.
Informa and BIO analyzed a decade of data collected by Informa’s Biomedtracker database, identifying 12,728 clinical phase transitions, which mark a program’s movement out of a clinical phase, commonly by advancement or suspension. QLS Advisors applied machine learning to “uncover underlying drivers of success” in the 9,704 clinical drug development programs included in the study, “Clinical Development Success Rates and Contributing Factors, 2011-2020,” published 17 February 2021.
Overall, for all modalities, the LOA from Phase I was 7.9% for the 2011-2020 period. -

Video DARC: exploratory biomarker for retinal disease
Novai is commercialising DARC, a combination biomarker consisting of Annexin A5 conjugated to a fluorophore (Dy776). ANX776 binds to stressed/apoptotic retinal cells which are visualisable as white spots using equipment routinely used by opticians, optometrists, and ophthalmologists. The images are then analysed to detect cellular level of disease activity.
When a therapeutic retards disease activity and reduces cell stress/death, DARC signal goes down in real time, providing prompt indication of drug effectiveness within days. DARC is a platform technology, currently being developed as a biomarker, with future potential as a glaucoma prognostic/diagnostic and a drug delivery theragnostic.

Video Innovating Stem Cell Medicine with the First Method for Routine Stem Cell Counting
Asymmetrex® markets the first and only technology for routine counting of therapeutic stem cells, like those in life-saving bone marrow transplants. The patented technology, “kinetic stem cell (KSC) counting,” tells physicians the dosage of stem cells in such treatments. KSC counting also improves biomanufacturing of stem cell and gene therapy products; improves stem cell science research; and reduces the cost of drug development by early detection of drug candidates that fail later because of stem cell toxicity.
Despite these many benefits, industry and market adoption of KSC counting has been challenged by entrenched non-quantitative practices and misinformation. Asymmetrex® will present three strategies deployed to overcome these barriers to its vision of establishing KSC counting as a new era for stem cell science and medicine: Demonstration of compelling medical, biomanufacturing, stem cell research, and pharmaceutical utility Establishing KSC counting as an industry standard for stem cell medicine Industry education campaigns

Video Pharmapack Webinar – Track & Trace: Challenges and opportunities for direct-to-patient delivery: Watch Now
This recently recorded CPHI Webinar in association with Pharmapack delves into the vitally important world of traceability of medicines and what the packaging industry is doing to address the issues of medication errors, security and drug wastage. Click the link above to access the on-demand session.
Providing a regulatory outlook, Nathalie Wardé, Chief Executive Officer, D4P pharma, said that with 50% of medication errors coming from dispensing and administration, improving traceability of medicines for direct-to-patient delivery is a must.
“Traceability is a global trend in healthcare B2B,” she said “Over the last seven to ten years, it has started to be a real concern for all the health authorities mainly to fight against counterfeit (or ‘falsified’) medicines or medical devices and to facilitate the recall process.”
Arguing the case for why global standards are needed across healthcare and providing an introduction to GS1 and Gs2 standards, Tania Snioch, Director Healthcare Operations, GS1 Global Office said that “never has a global, secure and efficient supply chain been more important than today,” citing the current pandemic situation.
“We’ve learned in these difficult times that global standards have a role to play; we’re all looking for an efficient supply chain that operates across countries and across continents and to have that, we need to be able to talk to each other in a language everybody understands,” she added. “ We need to be sure we’re talking about exactly the same products and it needs to be unambiguous; a global standard is the way to achieve that.”
Providing insights into the management of clinical supply chains, Pierre Fernandez-Barbereau, R&D Clinical Supply Chain Operations, Industrial Development, Sanofi, said that two key objectives are to ensure alignment between clinical demand and to design a clinical package in order to protect the dose and ensure the ‘blinding’ of the medicinal product.
“But the third objective, which is also the most important one, is to package on the production line and distribute throughout the world to clinical sites and patients, ensuring quality and traceability of these medicinal products,” he said. -

Podcast CPHI Podcast Series: The importance of novel excipients for innovative drug development
Excipients are essential to the formulation of drug products, but their importance in supporting innovative drug development is often underestimated. According to the International Pharmaceutical Excipients Council (IPEC), drugs that have yet to be developed may need more excipients than are currently available to us, and many new treatments are unlikely to succeed without novel excipients. In short – innovation in drug development requires innovation in excipient manufacturing.
However, the lack of an independent regulatory pathway for novel excipients has historically created barriers to their use and discouraged innovation in the excipients space. In this episode Nigel Langley, Chair of IPEC – Americas and Global Technology Director at BASF Corporation, joins us to discuss developments in the novel excipients arena, as well as the pilot review program launched by the FDA last year. -

Webinar What if a New Generation of LBEs Could Lift Advanced Pharmaceutical Drug Development with Poorly Soluble APIs to its Next Level by providing a Built-in Fit-for-Purpose Feature for Advanced Processes such as Hot Melt Extrusion and 3D-Printing?
More than 75 % of new chemical entities are poorly soluble and require bioavailability-enhancing excipients. The application of excipients in advanced pharmaceutical processes, such as hot melt extrusion and 3D-printing, aligned with advanced approaches towards personalized medicine, requires special features. Lipid-based excipients (LBEs) are “natural contenders” for these tasks. However, until now, it has not been possible to fully exploit the potential of LBEs.
The main challenge is the unstable solid state of current LBEs, e.g. polymorphism, leading to instability of the final dosage form. Compared to polymers, the low melting temperature of lipids, combined with highly crystalline arrangement, limits their application in advanced pharmaceutical processes such as hot melt extrusion and 3D-printing. -

Webinar Panel: Make America Pharma Again — Is Domestic Production here To Stay In a Post-Pandemic World?
In this webinar is originally broadcast as part of CPHI North America, with speakers Robert Bloder, Chief Business Officer, Ascendia Pharma, Chris Senanayake, CEO & CSO, TCG GreenChem, Inc. and John Pennett, Partner-in-Charge of the National Technology and Life Sciences Group, EisnerAmper. The thread line: The pandemic demonstrated the need for critical life sciences products to be manufactured domestically given supply chain disruptions and reactionary policies from historic suppliers like China and India. At the same time, billions poured into the industry as the US led the race towards developing a vaccine for Covid-19. Two years later, the groundwork has been largely established in terms of increased manufacturing capacity and general industry consensus that domestic production reduces risk, impacting both pharma and biopharma companies as well as CMOs and CDMOs who operate on American soil. But as Covid-generated issues like supply chain delays are gradually elevated, is domestic production here to stay? If so, how will manufacturers keep prices competitive? The panel will dive into current domestic R&D and production capacity, particularly of APIs, and how this influences the CMO sector. -

Webinar Pharma Outlook 2021
Featuring three speakers from leading market intelligence organisations, this webinar outlines the key trends and developments in the pharma sector to be aware of over the coming twelve months. Daniel Chancellor, Thought Leadership Director, Informa Pharma Intelligence, provided a snapshot of pharma pipeline activity during 2020, with oncology being the therapy area that continues to dominate clinical trial activity, with immune and central nervous system jockeying for second and third position.
He also shone a light over the disruption that the COVID-19 pandemic has wrought over trials and the industry’s rapid response to the crisis in terms of developing both vaccines and therapeutics against the virus.
“We have around three and a half thousand clinical trials initiated or planned against COVID-19 since the start of the year, with around 700 pipeline drugs and not to mention some of the repurposed efforts that have been run by academic groups, too,” he told the webinar.
Sarah Rickwood, Vice President European Thought Leadership, IQVIA presented nine key issues that are going to drive change in 2021 and beyond, a blend of some directly accelerated by the current pandemic and others that were issues already in existence prior to the pandemic, “but are really going to see their full impact on changing the shape of pharma and health care in 2021 and beyond regardless.”
She told the audience that the industry is actually dealing with three crises rather than one, and that the first half of the 2020s is likely to be flavoured by the pandemic and its consequences.
“We have the infection crisis, which we hope will be addressed by the vaccines which have come through with such an amazing effort from the pharmaceutical industry,” she said, adding that the challenge is that the infection crisis has triggered two other crises which will stretch through 2021 and beyond.
“The first is a crisis of healthcare systems, the non-COVID treatments of patients in healthcare systems have been delayed, changed and negatively impacted by the fact that healthcare systems have had to pivot to COVID treatment and addressing those patient backlogs which vary by country and by therapy area, is going to take a long period.”
She also pointed to the beginning of the economic crisis, with really worrying drops in GDP in Q2: “The full impact of mass employment has yet to be realized and that will mean health care system budgets will be constrained. So at best I can say is that we’re not living in a post-pandemic environment in 2021, we're living in a vaccine plus environment.”
And rounding off the webinar, Saman Kay, Solutions Consultant for Regulatory Intelligence at Clarivate Analytics, took a look at the future of drug manufacturing technology and assessed the opportunities and challenges of adopting continous manufacturing processes in place of traditional batch manufacturing. -

Video The Music of Process Development Science
Where QBD was the orchestral sheet music that determined how drug product development has been harmonized over the last 15 or so years, contemporary patient-centric risk-based approaches to drug development are the pop evolution. The music is still beautiful when produced well - but the focus is no longer on the full orchestra, it's on key players and moments. First - think McCartney and Lennon - one without the other and we don’t have the Beatles. The same can be said for collaboration between drug process development and commercial production colleagues. They are central to ensuring that products are easier to transfer and can be scaled, and that manufacturing challenges are identified early on and addressed proactively. In his keynote, Bernd Schümmelfeder Director-Team Leader PPD Business Development, Pfizer explores how lyrics (communication), rhythm (standardization), bass (structured development processes), and lead guitar (the use of smart technologies) throughout the drug development process come together to create beautiful music - a drug that gets to patients safely and at pace. Key areas for discussion include: Clear decision and inflection points to manage costs and prioritize projects with a higher probability of success Smart technologies like modeling to identify challenges early on and avoid late-stage pitfalls Use of platform technologies to simplify the tech transfer process and improve process robustness Areas to optimize the product development and manufacturing process to make it more efficient, cost-effective, and patient-focused -

Video Forecasting and Strategy – Maximizing Product Accessibility and Uptake, Improving Commercial Forecasting Skills and Analytics
As we bring in 2023, pharmaceutical companies will undoubtedly be looking ahead. But how will the events of the past two COVID years influence future aspirations? In the past, pharmaceutical companies used a mix of bottom-up and top-down processes to budget for the next fiscal year, and then made quarterly revisions during the year. Nowadays, both on the revenue side and on the expense side, volatility is more of a rule than the exception. Brands in different diseases are impacted differently in terms of demand by COVID-19: some experience an increased need; others are temporarily less needed, and demand will spike again once hospitals are able to take on less urgent cases. The timing of the impact of post COVID-19 era varies by country and is hard to predict, which makes strategy and financial forecasting more of a crystal ball exercise. Finally, various payers in health care systems will have budget issues themselves, having to redirect their budgets on the fly. How the market is bouncing back and forecasting is aligning itself to the new normal will be understood better by this presentation The presentation will cover: A typical forecasting process- cross functional process How do you value / forecast a drug / company’s pipeline?
