Effective patent life in pharmaceuticals
Effective patent life is lost in pharmaceuticals because of the lengthy time periods required for clinical trials and regulatory approval. A 1984 US law restores some of this lost patent time, while also facilitating generic competition when patents expire. This paper examines this law and the effects of other policy developments on market exclusivity times in pharmaceuticals. It also performs ...

A Healthy Environment - In life sciences and pharmaceuticals, it’s the key to success
With 1,000 miles of airways, 60,000 miles of blood vessels, and 100 trillion cells1, the human body is often referred to as the world’s most complex machine. So it’s no surprise that industries such as pharmaceuticals and life sciences, devoted to keeping that machine in good working order, require a complex and highly exacting set of operating environments. Manufacturers in these ...

Impact of the life sciences on organisation and management of R&D in large pharmaceutical firms
The life sciences are having a significant impact on the organisation and management of R&D in large pharmaceutical firms, as well as restructuring the markets for new therapeutic products. However, there is continuing scepticism about large firms' ability or inclination to build in-house capacity for biologics and extract value from the life sciences. This paper explores the effect of life ...

Why Water Usage Data is Critical to the Biopharmaceutical Industry
Few sectors are as captive to water requirements and regulations as the biopharmaceutical industry. Water is a critical component in the manufacture of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), life-saving drugs, vaccines, PPE, testing kits and many more products. To gain a clear picture, water for industrial use represents a significant part of global water demand and if nothing is done to ...

Establishing a Drug Stability Budget During Storage and Transit
In previous blog posts, we have explored the fact that many drugs, vaccines and pharmaceutical products require refrigerated conditions in order to maintain efficacy. We also examined the importance of minimizing temperature excursions during transportation. Establishing a drug stability budget can minimize discards and ensure a quality product is delivered to the end-user. We know that ...

The pharmaceutical sector commited to technology to reduce the environmental footprint of covid-19
The COVID-19 pandemic seems to have entered its final stage, with fortunately very low numbers, both hospitalized and deceased. Its impact, however, is not limited to the health and social sphere. The massive use of medicines and sanitary material (wipes, gloves or disposable masks) is one of the most devastating side effects of COVID-19 due to its environmental damage when its waste goes to ...
