The document discusses how the current business model for developing antibiotics is broken, as evidenced by the declining antibiotic pipeline. New approaches are needed to incentivize research and development of new antibiotics given the challenges of demand uncertainty, limited patent windows, and low prices which make antibiotics an unattractive investment. Potential solutions proposed include establishing a global governance body to oversee public-private partnerships for anti-infective development and reimbursement. Other ideas involve rewarding generic companies for stewardship and applying risk sharing models and financial instruments to raise funds for antibiotic research and development.

Chronic diseases are still exerting extreme pressure
on healthcare expenditure
Older population
• >13% of the population will be 60 or older by 2020 , dementia doubles every five years >
65.
• 100 million Alzheimer sufferers by 2050.
Obesity
• By 2020 >12% of the global population will be overweight or obese. >500m people.
• 44% of the diabetes burden, 23% of the ischaemic heart disease burden and up to 41% of
certain cancer burdens are attributable to overweight and obesity.
Cardiovascular disease (CVD)
• Today 16m people die from CVD every year in developed and developing economies.
• Expect a 200% to 400% rise in developing world by 2030. Death toll could be 25 - 50m in
20 years.
Hypertension
• Globally 25% (>970m) of the population had hypertension in 2000 - 330m in developed
countries; 640m in developing countries, >1.5bn cases of hypertension by 2025
Diabetes
• Age and obesity drive diabetes increase. In the US alone some 11.3% of adults – rising to
26.9% of those aged 65-plus. Another 35% – rising to 50% of those aged 65-plus – have
prediabetes. Slide 8

Mature markets – the challenge
Prove
that
you’re
adding
value!!
• The mature markets have been evolving
economically, demographically and structurally
• Pharma’s approach ‘get more, pay more’ even
though the markets are running out of money
won’t work for long
• Healthcare payers demand more value for the
same money or the same value for less money
• To reach 2020 offer more value without
charging more or remove costs from healthcare
system to justify higher prices
• It takes at least a decade to develop a new drug and
only six months to change a clinical pathway. A lot
of companies may have to prune their
portfolios quickly.

Leaders have emphasised the need to act now
Who carries the responsibility if no change happens?
“Unless we solve the problem of antimicrobial resistance to drugs, we will
be facing a post-antibiotic era where things as common as a strep throat
infection or a child's scratched knee could once again kill.”
Dr Margaret Chan,
Director General, WHO
“Resistance to antibiotics risks health 'catastrophe' to rank with terrorism
and climate change”
Dame Sally Davies,
Chief Medical Officer (CMO)
“If we fail to act, we are looking at an almost unthinkable scenario where
antibiotics no longer work and we are cast back into the dark ages of
medicine where treatable infections and injuries will kill once again.“

• Pricing, market access and innovative

• Solutions require a long term view from

• Access to real world evidence is key for

• Innovation in technology, Big Data and
