STUDY OVERVIEW

The stakes are high for pharma teams preparing to launch a new breakthrough medicine. While the drug holds potential to achieve blockbuster status owing to factors such as fulfilling an unmet need or first-mover advantage, there is a significant probability of garnering hostile responses from key stakeholders in case of an associated stigma or controversy around the product.

Consequently, many pharma companies are developing rapid response teams to map and engage the full range of hostile stakeholder groups.

Best Practices, LLC engaged senior launch leadership from pharma companies and conducted extensive secondary research to highlight effective strategies for managing hostile stakeholders during the launch of a breakthrough new medicine.

The study delves into key aspects including: mapping and engaging hostile stakeholders; using science to defuse hostility and build the value story, and working with pricing opposition groups during product launch.

KEY TOPICS

Mapping & Managing Hostile Groups Across the Market Landscape
Using Science to Communicate Data to Defuse Hostility and Build the Value Story
Working with Pricing Opposition Groups

SAMPLE KEY FINDINGS

No Go Zones: Avoid engaging advocacy groups that provide services misaligned with your product but monitor them for potential conflicts.

Working with Pricing Opposition Groups: Employ a flexible discount strategy. Rather than lowering price, negotiate preferred discounts for public payers and key PBMs like Express Scripts.

METHODOLOGY

Best Practices, LLC engaged front-line executives at 11 companies across 9 therapeutic areas to conduct this analysis on hostile stakeholder management. Extensive secondary research was also conducted to identify industry best practices.
