In recent years, there have been visible strains in the pharmaceutical business. With a downturn in fortunes, many pharmaceutical companies are searching for business solutions to streamline operations and cut costs as they strive to continue generating above-average shareholder returns. Outsourcing has become an integral, ongoing element of pharmaceutical companies’ business...Published: June 1, 2004 | Price: $2,995.00 – $5,990.00
Ten years ago, high throughput screening (HTS) was being touted as the answer to improving productivity in drug discovery. If screening thousands of compounds a week was good, screening hundreds of thousands would be even better. This led to the boom in Ultra HTS (UHTS), manufacturing-scale systems, and high-speed automation. Today, reality has begun to creep in: HTS and UHTS have not lived up to their hype. R&D productivity is not improving, in fact it may be declining. In the...Published: June 1, 2004 | Price: $1,500.00 – $3,000.00
Biologics, or biopharmaceuticals, are synthetic or recombinant versions of natural biologic substances, including proteins such as enzymes or antibodies and nucleic acids such as DNA or RNA. Generic products are non-patented chemical and therapeutic equivalents of brand name drugs. However, biogenerics are not generic biologics, because there can technically be no generic form of biologics. That is, the complex process of creating biologics, means that traditional definitions of bioequivalence used in the generic drug industry do not (or may not)...Published: March 1, 2004 | Price: $3,500.00 – $7,000.00

Diet Aids are among the most rapidly growing categories of over-the-counter (OTC) products. Between 1998 and 2003, growth was driven by two main factors: changes in laws and lawsuits relating to the industry, and changes in consumer attitudes toward weight loss. Because both of these factors are subject to rapid and unpredictable shifts, the diet aids category remains a highly volatile market. The consumer attitude towards OTC diet aids has shown extreme changes during the last couple of years. While...Published: February 1, 2004 | Price: $3,500.00 – $7,000.00

Each year in the United States, more than 500,000 people with coronary artery disease are treated with percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA). Unfortunately, restenosis occurs within three to six months in 40% to 50% of PTCA patients due to either thrombosis or abnormal tissue growth. As a result, restenosis constitutes the major limitation to the effectiveness of PTCA. To improve on this condition, medical science created stents in an attempt to keep coronary arteries open. However, one of the early...Published: March 1, 2003 | Price: $2,812.00 – $5,625.00
