Custom APIs: aligning drug strategy with partnering strategy
Discover the importance of purposefully aligning your drug development strategy with a partnering strategy and how the increasing development of novel drugs are impacting the industry’s go-to-market efforts.
Development of novel small molecule active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) is increasingly turned over to outsourced partners who have become the primary drivers of the product’s overall development and go-to-market strategy. With hundreds of potential partners that drug owners can choose from to develop and manufacture small molecule APIs, choosing the best partner can be a challenging task.
In this white paper, we explore the importance of purposefully aligning the overall drug development strategy with a partnering strategy. We also review how increasing development of novel drugs are also impacting the industry’s go-to-market efforts, driving new demand for expert small molecule API suppliers. Finally, we consider how small molecule API development projects can be executed by leveraging the experience of embedded contract development and manufacturing (CDMO) partners.
