Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/f3db4d/how_to_integrate_p) has announced the addition of Decision Resources, Inc.'s new report "How to Integrate Personalized Medicine into Business Strategies" to their offering.
A growing awareness is taking hold across the pharmaceutical industry: what was once impossible -- tailoring treatment to specific groups of patients rather than to the population as a whole -- is becoming possible. What is needed to integrate a personalized medicine approach into business strategies? We provide perspectives from pharmaceutical, diagnostic, and managed care executives and create a set of recommendations based on what experts advise when contemplating the operational shift to the delivery of personalized healthcare.
Get the Answers You Need to Shape Your Strategy
- Lilly has said it needs to transform every part of its operations. How is Lilly working to integrate a personalized medicine approach into its business strategies? What is entailed in the company's cultural and organizational restructuring and its new FIPNet model?
- Roche completed a hostile takeover of Ventana and announced its intention to assume complete control of Genentech. Why are these two strategic maneuvers so important to Roche and why are they important to integrating personalized medicine strategies more tightly into the company's operations? Does personalized medicine success require that a company consume its diagnostic or targeted therapy partner outright and own it lock, stock, and barrel?
- The pharmaceutical industry has adopted formularies and benefit plan designs to differentiate drugs. What are the problems covering and reimbursing genetic testing and pharmacodiagnostic tests? What problems continue to plague gene-based testing and value-added reimbursement?
