PharmaAsia Industry Outlook: Growth in Generics and New Molecular Entities (NMEs)
There are a number of interesting market dynamics in play within the pharmaceutical industry; in the traditional markets, such as Europe, the US and Japan, we’ve recently witnessed the largest number of submitted patents for new molecular entities (NMEs) for more than 10 years. And, although some of those NCEs were targeted at low volume/high value solid dosage forms, the majority were new biological entities (NBEs) for liquid forms. Drug producers need a certain type of process solution to manufacture final dosage forms, so I see the traditional market focusing on high value, small volume products that require agile, efficient and flexible production processes. An additional area of growth is branded over-the-counter drugs (OTCs).
