Pharmaceutical R&D is emerging from a turbulent couple of years, as the COVID-19 pandemic threatened to blow it off course, forcing it to urgently respond to a global health crisis, whilst simultaneously changing many of the ways in which it conducted clinical development. As the world begins to get back to normal, what has been the overall effect on the drug pipeline?
This webinar will examine the question and will be based around the Citeline Pharma R&D Annual Review, now in its thirtieth year, which looks at trends both short- and long-term in drug development. Ian Lloyd, Senior Director of Citeline’s Pharmaprojects database, the report’s author will present analyses of leading companies, diseases, mechanisms and targets, and drug types. The review includes exclusive APAC-centred content, with a particular focus on the explosion of novel pharma R&D which is occurring in China.
This year being the 30th anniversary, we are inviting key opinion leaders from across the APAC and EMEAI regions to discuss the drug development and pipeline in 2022. This roundtable discussion will be hosted by Ian Haydock, Editor-in-Chief, Pharma, APAC, Scrip Group who spends years writing about Pharma R&D and drug development articles. Come join us as this webinar promises to provide unique insight into the state of global and regional R&D in 2022.
