In this time- and cost-constrained environment, companies have had begun to look at lifecycle management strategies with newfound interest. To help biopharma companies more effectively conduct the many activities related to lifecycle management, Best Practices, LLC conducted a study to provide important benchmarks on the optimal size and structure of Mature Brand Organizations. In addition, this study provides pharmaceutical and biotech executives with important benchmarks on recent barriers and regulations affecting the industry as well as the lifecycle strategies used by Mature Brand Organizations or the groups responsible for lifecycle management. This study identifies and documents current practices and trends at Mature Brand Organizations and explores the rationale for different tactical approaches for lifecycle management strategies. In addition, the research provides insights into which strategies will survive in a changing pharmaceutical environment. KEY TOPICS Barriers of Key LCM Strategies Strategies Weakened by Regulation or Reform Mature Brand Organizations Case Example of Pfizer's Lipitor Other Success Factors and Lessons Learned KEY METRICS Technical Feasibility of Lifecycle Management Strategies Growing Mature Product Regulatory Feasibility of Lifecycle Management Strategies Growing Mature Product Cost of Lifecycle Management Strategies Growing Mature Product Strategies Weakened by Regulation/Reform in the next 12-24 months Length of time since Mature Brand Organization establishment Number of products MBO currently manages Responsibilities of Mature Brand Organization Regions supported by Mature Brand Organization Key factors governing "mature brand" status Major expenses of MBO Budget SAMPLE KEY FINDINGS Global Reach: Nearly 40% of the dedicated Mature Brand groups represented in this study are focused only on the U.S. market. The remainder of groups have additional responsibility in other countries: 62% are responsible for emerging markets, and some 40% claim responsibility countries outside developed or emerging markets (i.e., “Rest of World”). Emerging Markets Least Impacted: Extending into emerging markets will be the LCM strategy least impacted by regulation/reform over the next 12-24 months. METHODOLOGY Research participants included 25 executives and managers from 18 different pharmaceutical and biotech companies. Respondents represented more than a dozen therapeutic areas.

Non-members: Click here to review a complimentary excerpt from "Lifecycle Management Excellence: Effectiveness and ROI of Lifecycle Strategies" STUDY OVERVIEW With fewer products in the pipeline and more at the edge of the patent cliff, strategies to extend the commercial life of mature brands are critical to the bio-pharmaceutical industry today. Used correctly, strategies can add as many as 10 years and billions of dollars to the life of an established or mature brand. This study is designed to help brand and marketing leaders identify winning lifecycle management (LCM) strategies they can use to extend the commercial life of bio-pharmaceutical products. The study examines ROI, effectiveness, time and costs required for over 20 different LCM strategies. To help pharmaceutical and biotech companies more effectively overcome the many challenges related to lifecycle management as patents expire and pipelines thin, Best Practices, LLC conducted a study to provide important benchmarks to determine the value of different lifecycle management strategies. Specifically, this benchmark study provides executives with important metrics on successful strategies in the current pharmacentical environment and the returns they can anticipate from these different tactics. KEY TOPICS Corporate Lifecycle Management (LCM) Goals & Policies Use of Key LCM Strategies Comparative Effectiveness of Key LCM Strategies Relative Costs of Key LCM Strategies Relative Time of Key LCM Strategies ROI of Key LCM Strategies Key Strategy Profiles Gains from Using LCM Strategies KEY METRICS Key Lifecycle Management Goals for Mature Brands Targeting of Physicians in Support of Mature Brands Late-Life Strategies Used on Behalf of Mature Brands Usage of 20+ LCM Strategies Effectiveness of LCM Strategies Cost of LCM Strategies Return on Investment of LCM Strategies Time Required for LCM Strategies Number of Months LCM Strategies are Employed Incremental Sales Gained by LCM Strategies SAMPLE KEY FINDINGS Litigation Has Highest ROI: Overall, litigation strategies achieved the highest ROI for participants, with 40% realizing more than 100% ROI and another 20% realizing over 50%. Fixed dose combination, one of the more expensive strategies, had the second highest ROI rating. With respect to time and costs, branded/authorized generics was the most effective strategy in garnering a high ROI. Financial Gain: Financial gain from using individual strategies among the benchmark class ranged from $0 to $10 billion, with a median gain of $30 million. The average gain was $254 million. METHODOLOGY Research participants included 25 executives and managers from 18 different pharmaceutical and biotech companies. Respondents represented more than a dozen therapeutic areas.
