Abstract:
The number of new medical products based on chemistry launches at the lowest level for many years. The pharmaceutical industry puts emphasis on biotechnology-derived products. Both genomics and protemics are contributing to understanding and determining more targets which involved in human disease.This means that there will be more opportunities for biopharmaceutical breakthroughs,eventually,more and better biomedicines will be approved.Several trends in development for biopharmaceuticals were analyzed:(1) Biological medicine and Chinese traditional medicine have developed rapidly between 1998~2005, the number of the papers about biological medicine increases dramaticly. (2)The emphasis is on biological medicine in pharmaceutical industry and the biotech market is concentrating in United States and multinational. (3)The proportion of biotech products is becoming larger gradually. More concern is focused on biotech products.(4)In order to reduce the cost of R&D and increase the number of new drugs, more and more M&A occur between the biotech companies.(5)The governments all over the world attach importance to biotech products.(6)Tissue engineering, cell therapy and gene therapy have a good future, full of opportunities and challenges.
