The US Ecosystem for Medicines. How new drug innovations get to patients.
| |
|
New research from the consultancy Vital Transformation (VT) has found that 60% of FDA approved medicines from 2011- 2020 originated in the United States. The FDA approved 363 new medicines over that time period, and the US was solely responsible for the origination of 223 of those medicines.
The study by Vital Transformation was an update of the often-cited 2010 Nature Reviews Drug Discovery publication by Robert Kneller. Broadly, since Kneller’s publication, the US biopharma sector increased the total number of approved therapies that it originated from 118 to 223. Germany, the UK, and the EU broadly have seen declines in the number of therapies it originated during the same period. As well, the study also presents data showing that venture backed biopharmaceutical start ups in Asia, predominantly driven by China, now equal the annual total of the United States, with 93 start-ups. Europe was relatively flat, with 44 biopharma start-ups.

Panel Discusion
Healthcare IT’s Role in Patient Engagement and Health Provider Growth Initiatives
January 24, 2023
11:30 am - 1:00 pm
16Tech Innovation District, Indianapolis, IN
Join the HIMSS Indiana Chapter for a panel discussion where we will explore organizational dynamics and best practices for vetting, implementing, and monitoring the use of rapidly evolving digital tools in the healthcare setting.
Healthcare organizations are under intense pressure to enhance the customer experience, drive brand and product awareness, and improved clinical and financial outcomes. This has resulted in increased reliance on outreach using digital tools that nurture patient relationships. The use of these digital tools are not without compliance, privacy, security, and technical risks. IT and security practitioners are central to vetting, on-boarding, executing, and monitoring risk parameters.

Eiteljorg Museum Plans Scottish Exhibition
One of the interesting conversations that came out of the SLA visit in May was a connection to an upcoming exhibition at the Eiteljorg Museum of Native American Art in Indianapolis. In August 2023, the museum will feature the works of Alfred Jacob Miller - a Scottish landscape artist who sketched and painted scenes of the American West on behalf of his patron, Sir William Drummond Stewart. Originally displayed in Murthly Castle in Perthshire, Scotland, the collection has been reassembled and will be displayed as it would have appeared to Sir Stewart. The paintings show details of the Rendezvous - an important trading event for Native Americans, trappers, traders, and inhabitants of the American West in the 1800s. For more information on the exhibit or if you might have an interest in becoming a corporate sponsor, please learn more. IHIF and SLA are excited to help support this fascinating cultural connection!
