JULY 21, 2021
SUMMARY: DTC marketing is not the reason why prescription drugs cost so much. DTC ads raise awareness around health conditions. DTC ads do NOT lead to unnecessary Rxs. The FDA needs to study what people do when they see a DTC ad. The voices in Washington DC are once again calling for a moratorium on DTC marketing but lawmakers need to understand what DTC marketing actually does as upped to what people believe it does.

Think of the R&D dollars that could be saved if artificial intelligence (AI) modelling could tell you at an early stage whether a drug was likely to succeed in clinical trials, and ultimately reach the market. In 2019, a team at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in the US came up with just such a model, and found that it was able to perform “better than random” at predicting the outcome of a clinical trial or development programme.

When selecting a clinical supply provider, consideration often focuses upon the manufacturing, packaging, storage and distribution capabilities available that will, at face-value, be sufficient to meet the needs of the sponsor and their trial. However, there are human-based and knowledge-driven factors that are often overlooked that go beyond these basic physical capabilities and are integral to the development and delivery of high performing clinical supply chains.

As the development pipeline for new drugs continues to grow, biopharmaceutical companies are re-evaluating how to best manage and balance resources across an increasing number of development projects and complex clinical trials. There are two approaches that can be used to speed a drug from development to clinic faster: timeline compression and parallel processing, but only one that considers the benefits of integrating clinical supply into the overall drug development process.
