DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "PharmSource - CMO Scorecard: Outsourcing of NDA Approvals and CMO Performance - 2017 Edition" report to their offering.
Summary
The report examines 91 drugs approved by the FDA Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) in 2016 along with 1 therapeutic drug approved by the FDA Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER) under the BLA process.
PharmSource's data-rich Trend Report, CMO Scorecard: Outsourcing of NDA Approvals and CMO Performance - 2017 Edition, has ascertained that 2016 was not a halcyon year for new drug approvals with only 25 NMEs being approved since 2010.
Global bio/pharma companies received 22 approvals in 2016 (24% of all NDAs), 10% below their 2011-2015 average. Small commercial companies were responsible for 21 approvals (23% of the total), some 5% above their five-year average. There was a clear difference between outsourcing propensity of NME and Non-NME drugs. Only 13% of NMEs sponsored by global bio/pharma companies were outsourced compared with an average of 28% from 2011-2015. However, the largest companies increased their outsourcing of Non-NME drugs from an average of 32% in 2011-2015 to 57% in 2016.
In 2016, the FDA approved 92 NDAs and BLAs including new molecular entities (NMEs), therapeutic drugs approved through CBER and new formulations of older drugs. This figure represents a 25% decrease from 2015 (122) and is also 5% less than the 2011-2015 average of 97. Furthermore, 48% of NMEs were outsourced compared to 64% of Non-NME NDA products. 28 dose CMOs garnered approvals in 2016 although two companies, Vetter and Patheon, won 7 out of the 12 NMEs that were outsourced. No other company secured more than a single NME approval for contract manufacturing, although Catalent and DPT were responsible for 7 Non-NME NDA drugs.
The CMO landscape is dominated by the quartet of Patheon, Baxter, Vetter and Catalent, which collectively accounted for over 30% of all NDA approvals between 2007-2016. Parenteral NME outsourcing is dominated by the first three of these, which are responsible for manufacturing 47% of all drugs, with the remainder split between 28 other companies.
