Consolidation has brought together large, economically significant insurer/PBM/specialty pharmacy/provider organizations within U.S. drug channels. At least half of all U.S. healthcare spending flows through these seven familiar entities: Blue Cross Blue Shield, Centene, Cigna, CVS Health, Elevance Health, Humana, and United Health Group. In the brief video clip below, I review these businesses and offer some thoughts on their positioning for 2023.

Each year Eye on FDA provides a look-back to see what the agency was talking about and what has changed over time. This year is a telling one and FDA may be changing the nature of the way they are communicating with the public. Moreover, this year is marked by the fact that the agency appeared to have less to say than in most recent years – perhaps taking a breather after the frenzy of the COVID-19 pandemic years.

Fresh human tissue residual to surgical and diagnostic procedures is often discarded as waste or processed and prepared in a fixed or frozen state for long-term storage as part of a biobank collection. Some stored tissue may be compatible with, and distributed for use in, future investigations and studies, but for many, the donated tissue can remain in storage unused for years.

For 2023, the three largest pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs)—Caremark (CVS Health), Express Scripts (Cigna), and OptumRx (United Health Group)—have again increased the number of drugs they exclude from their standard formularies. Each exclusion list now contains about 600 products. Growth in the number of excluded drugs slowed for the second year, due partly to the fact that so many drugs have already been dropped from PBMs’ formularies.

Bringing new medicines and hope to patients faster all starts with preclinical research. But on average, a staggering 98 percent of all pharmaceutical research investment fails to reach patients. There’s a reason for this: biology is incredibly complex. Choosing the right targets, designing successful experiments, and identifying safety and efficacy risks, as just a few examples, involve hundreds or even thousands of trial-error processes and require scientists to work with a seemingly endless n

For me, the most enjoyable aspect of discovery research is exploring the unknown. It is about having a big idea; believing in that big idea based on a scientific belief framework ; coming to a crossroads in the validity of the big idea, which is usually marked by deep uncertainty and skepticism; making a data-driven scientific decision to proceed (or not) to the next inflection point of testing the big idea; and ultimately arriving at a conclusion of whether the big idea is true.

Should your clinical trial be adaptive? Trials that include a prospectively planned modification based on an interim analysis, otherwise known as adaptive trials , are often associated with greater efficiency and better prospects for patients without compromising statistical rigor. And new holistic approaches to creating these designs are making room for transformative, even revolutionary, changes to strategic drug development.

Osteoporosis, translated directly to “porous bone,” is a condition that impacts approximately 10 million Americans. The human body is constantly producing bone cells, but they are constantly being lost as well — and when the cells are being dissolved faster than they are being produced, weakness can result. Below, we’ll be taking a closer look at what osteoporosis is, what causes it, and how people can reduce the likelihood of developing the condition in their lifetime.
