Sources of informationStrength of the Editorial team
• Team of around 15 in-house editors and free-lancers
• Improved timeliness with strict guidelines and prioritisation process to include the information gathered in the service within certain timeframe.
• Creation of specialist roles within the editorial team:with editors concentrating on company information, pipeline project and analysts predictions information.
IMS LifeCycle • 04/10/239
Sources of InformationPrimary & Secondary
• Primary research via:• Company interviews, with drug-specific questionnaires• Company R&D days & Company investor conferences • Scientific conferences (where specific ATCs are covered, I.e.
neuroscience or oncology)• Business/Partnering conferences (where partnering forums are held
and cover all ATCs• Attendance in the USA and Europe (where companies from all over the
world are represented), and also in Japan and Australia.
• Secondary research:• Analyst briefings • Conferences posters, conferences abstracts, review journals • Regulatory data from the various regulatory agencies such as the US
FDA, EU EMEA and the Japanese NHI as well as Patents and other intellectual property sources
• Online services and internet services

New Product FocusIntroduction
• This IMS service covers new product launches by country,
allowing for the evaluation of successful launch strategies
world-wide.
• New Product Focus is part of IMS LifeCycle, which enables the
reviews of a drug life cycle at three critical stages: R&D
stages, launch activities and patent protection worldwide.
IMS LifeCycle • 04/10/2312
New Product Focus Statistics
• Compendium of back data from 1982
• Coverage of over 70 major markets
• Over 280,000 launches with 178,000 distinct trade names, each of which representing a first launch in a country (first pack)
• Biotechnology, Generics and excipients
• NCEs (New Chemical Entities) - when and where a novel compound was first launched
• Over 1,000 new pharmaceutical products reported every month
IMS LifeCycle • 04/10/2313
New Product FocusData Content
New Product Focus records the very first launch of a product ina particular country and identifies the indication and price atthe time of this initial launch; featuring:
• Ingredient & Local trade name• Marketing company• Date & country of launch• Therapeutic class code & Indication (when available)• Composition (including form and dose)• Presentation (pack information) • Launch price data recorded in the local country currency but their level
differ depending on the country, as follows:– Retail Selling Price (RSP), Retail Purchase Price (RPP), Manufacturers Selling
Price (MSP), National Health Insurance (NHI); i.e. Japan, Average wholesale price (AWP); i.e. USA
• Historical data - records not updated - hence always showing original companies and initial pack info at launch

New Product Focus Sources of information
• Data collection methods vary from market to market.
• In most industrialized countries, wholesaler to pharmacy transaction data is collected directly from wholesalers.
• In other countries and for all hospital data, a representative sample is obtained and then projected to produce national estimates.
• Regular validation studies are undertaken by IMS in conjunction with the pharmaceutical industry (EPHMRA).
• New Product Focus identifies new chemical entities or new active substances by referring to R&D Focus, patents and regulatory data
IMS LifeCycle • 04/10/2315
New Product FocusUses of a product launch information database
• Comprehensive world-wide analysis of product launches
− Monitor global product activity to track launches in all markets and sectors
• Valuable pricing information
− Benchmark product pricing strategy against market leaders, including pricing of generics
− Unique on the market
• Launch strategies
− Search for key comparator drug launches to identify successful launch strategies of a product extension, looking at indication, or specific dose forms
IMS LifeCycle • 04/10/2316
Patent FocusIntroduction
• This IMS service provides evaluated patent information for marketed drugs and those in phase III and above active R&D, allowing the user to plan effectively for patent expiry far into the future.
• Patent Focus is part of IMS LifeCycle, which enables the reviews of a drug life cycle at three critical stages: R&D stages, launch activities and patent protection worldwide

Different patent types per compound“Covering all angles”
Aim of originators is to cover the invention from all angles
• Product patent• Claims the novel compound - generally most important
• Process patent• Claims the process for preparing the compound e.g. gene expression
technology to enhance the production of recombinant proteins
• Method of use patent• Claims the method of treating/preventing a condition e.g. method for
treating TNF-mediated inflammatory diseases, specifically arthritis
• Composition patent• Claims the therapeutic compositions e.g. sustained release capsules
IMS LifeCycle • 04/10/2318
