Research and Markets: Discover How Reformulation Can Grant Extended Patent Protection and Greatly Extend the Profitable Lifecycle of your Products

DUBLIN--()--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/147783/successful_strateg) has announced the addition of the "Successful Strategies for Pharmaceutical Reformulation" report to their offering.

This report assesses the various approaches to reformulation in the protection of revenues for pharmaceuticals that are in the midpoint of their lifecycles. Using case studies pulmonary, injectable, oral, and transdermal reformulation strategies are examined with key technologies profiled.

Features and benefits:

  • Understand the commercial benefits of drug reformulation
  • Understand the main drivers of uptake for specific drug delivery routes including, oral, transdermal, pulmonary, and injectable.
  • Using case studies understand how to take a strategic approach to drug delivery based product development.
  • Discover how reformulation can grant extended patent protection and greatly extend the profitable lifecycle of your products.
  • Analyse key technological developments in oral, injectable, pulmonary, and transdermal drug delivery and assess which will be most suitable for you.

Highlights:

  • Novel formulations deliver superior returns on investments: drug delivery-based product development strategies are substantially more effective compared with Rx-to-OTC switching, or if companies followed new indication, branded generic, or drug repositioning channels to optimize the product lifecycle.
  • Drug delivery technology companies offering a comprehensive product development plan including feasibility studies, formulation development, analytical assays, clinical studies, regulatory support, manufacturing facilities, and assistance in product launch are more favorably received as partners than those who do not have such capabilities.
  • Although respiratory drug reformulation can be useful in lifecycle management, so can the development of innovative new devices. These can often enhance marketing of the product formulations because new devices that exploit technical developments in innovation can lead to improved drug delivery, hence enhancing product efficacy and/or safety.

Your key questions answered:

  • How can reformulation help me to sustain revenues in the face of patent expiration and generic competition?
  • Which delivery method is most suitable for my reformulation plans and which technologies currently in development look most promising?
  • When in my brand's lifecycle should I introduce my second reformulation to ensure optimum revenue generation?
  • What strategies have companies used when successfully introducing reformulations of their brands and how can I emulate them?
  • How can I successfully develop strategic alliances with drug delivery specialists to aid in the development of novel formulations of my products?
