FOREWARD

The pharmaceutical industry continues to twist and turn toward the sunlight, and away from the darkness of the patent cliff. As growth rates slow, alarm is never far from the lips. Purchasing power within middle-income families in BRIC countries (Brazil, Russia, India, and China) is often described as being just what the doctor ordered, but in truth “blockbuster” means something far smaller here, while affordability and IP issues become more pressing.

Some companies pursue new classes of therapy by exploring ways to enter the blood brain barrier with specialized formulations or procedures, which may reawaken the concept of lifestyle drugs. Others keep the light burning by looking for ways to deliver RNAi and stem cell therapies. Still others dredge the vast oceans for novel chemical entities. Ultimately, innovation is the only sure cure for stalled sales.
