  14. Future Mandate for R&D • Shorten discovery timelines • Strengthen development efforts • Increase research productivity

  15. Timelines in drug development Targets selected Lead series selected Candidate leads selected IND approval NDA approval Lead selection Lead optimisation (in vitro ADMET) Target identification Target selection Preclinical evaluation (in vivo ADMET) Clinical evaluation Safety/Efficacy Marketing & sales Monitoring-ADR OLD PARADIGM Lead identification 1.5-4 yr 1.5-1 yr 1-2 yr 1-2 yr 8-10 yr 0.5 yr 0.5 yr 1-1.5 yr 1-1.5 yr 7-9 yr Increased efficiency in drug development Technological drivers: Genomics, proteomics, metabonomics, disease models, combinatorial chemistry, HTS, bioinformatics… Increased lifecycle of new drugs NEW PARADIGM 2-6 yr

  16. 35% 30% 35% Even small improvements in compound selection will have huge effects on profits With up to 70% of clinical trial spending wasted on trials of failed compounds… Annual spending in clinical trials …a 1 percent improvement in selection can save $7 million from each $1 billion of an annual development budget. Total: $20 billion $700 million potential improvement opportunity by improving selection process Drugs that fall due to selection of wrong targets For each $1 billion of an annual development budget… Successful drugs …70% is spent on failed drugs $70 million for a 10 percent improvement Drugs that fall due to poor chemistry

  17. Drug Discovery in the 21st Century High Throughput Screening Genomics/Proteomics Novel Targets Informatics Therapeutic Areas Informatics Informatics Combinatorial Chemistry

  23. Integrating Into Networks of Innovationis a Key Growth Strategy Areas of Strength Areas of Weakness Academia Preferred Flows Biotech Start-up Companies Large Healthcare Companies Regulatory Marketing & Sales Exploratory Research Development Manufacturing

  24. Key Business Challenges for Biotech • Create a strategic vision for “grown up” companies • Deliver earnings to support valuations • Structure value maximizing alliances with traditional pharmaceutical companies • Evaluate mergers and acquisitions • Build production capacity

  25. Challenge: Define Strategic Vision • What is the appropriate vision? • Fully integrated pharmaceutical company or pure discovery engine? • What therapeutic / technology focus should a company have? • Diagnostics, delivery or drugs? Technology Play? • What supporting functions, processes are needed? • Discovery to development to portfolio management to marketing

  26. Challenge: Translate InnovationInto Earnings • How do companies maximize the value of their: • Technology platforms • Identify the appropriate targets and tools • Development candidates • Balance technical and commercial risk • Marketed products • Expand capacity and develop line extension strategies

  27. Challenge: StructureValue-Maximizing Alliances • Alliances between biotechs and pharma firms will become even more important • How do biotechs balance short-term funding needs with long-term value maximization? • What are the elements of win-win alliances? • What strategic frameworks and processes can shape future alliances?

  28. Some of the more significant deals signed between pharma and biotech companies last year. Valuations cannot be directly compared because they have not been uniformly calculated.

  29. Biotech Disappointments • Merck & Co drops Celltech compound • Novo Nordisk tries to stop Pfizer ending its hormone replacement therapy deal • Lilly drops Ono’s sivelestat • Lilly ends a deal to develop oral insulin with Generex • Biogen ends Icos deal • Bayer shelves key PPL project • Pfizer ends deal with Phytopharm’s P57 obesity project • AstraZeneca pulls out of a deal with NicOx • Cambridge Antibody Technology/Abbott deal goes sour • GlaxoSmithKline scraps its oral insulin deal with Nobex • Abbott scraps its diabetes deal with Karo Bio • Pfizer hands back Celltech’s antiheumatic • Pfizer returns product rights to Debiopharm

  30. Challenge: Evaluate M&A • The biotech industry is still highly fragmented, and more consolidation is inevitable • Successful companies will proactively evaluate: • When is the right time for M&A? • What attributes make a candidate attractive? • What synergies exist, and how quickly can they be realized?

  31. Biotech companies are consolidating among themselves or being bought up by pharma
