Pharma companies are currently assessing how the Pharma Review will affect their portfolios. Maarten Meulenbelt and Maria Koutsoupia discuss the need for analysis from the EU to support the Review’s claims, for example on the allegedly ‘invisible’ effect of losing €640 million in annual orphan drug revenues.

On March 16, 2023 the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) rendered an important judgment[1] for the pharmaceutical industry as it brings some clarification on the test to assess if two products have the ‘same active substance’ and therefore belong to the same Global Marketing Authorisation (GMA). This is a crucial determination as products falling within the GMA of an existing product do not benefit from an independent period of regulatory data protection (RDP) and marketing protection.

The UK veterinary medicines industry needs to respond by March 31 to a consultation on proposed changes to the UK Veterinary Medicines Regulations which could boost data protection for regulatory submissions, incentivising innovation. However, companies need to be wary of potential increases in regulatory burden in other areas. Chris Boyle explains.

The original agreement for the UK’s withdrawal from the EU affected the availability of medicines in Northern Ireland and created issues for importers of medicinal products. The new ‘Windsor Framework’ is better for the industry, as Marie Manley and Bronwyn Tonelli explain.
This week, U.S. healthcare providers met with a Medicare reimbursement panel to discuss remote patient monitoring, remote therapeutic monitoring, and considerations for determining reimbursement. Jon Zucker, Meenakshi Datta, and Sama Kahook analyze some key themes.
One year after the EU Veterinary Medicines Regulation (VMR) came into force, novel medicine developers have an important opportunity to shape its implementation. Chris Boyle and Bronwyn Tonelli look at what’s at stake for an industry which is embracing technological advancement, but which faces twice the administrative burden of the human medicine industry.
