CRISPR-Cas9, a revolutionary gene-editing tool, holds immense potential to reshape medicine, agriculture, and our understanding of life. But like any powerful tool, it comes with ethical considerations.
Unveiling CRISPR: This naturally occurring bacterial defense system (crRNA & Cas9 protein) fights viruses. Scientists repurposed it for precise gene editing (correction, deletion, insertion) by targeting specific DNA sequences.
The Promise: CRISPR offers exciting possibilities:
Gene Therapy: Correcting genetic diseases like cystic fibrosis.
Agriculture: Engineering crops resistant to pests and harsh environments.
Research: Studying gene function to unlock new knowledge.
The Peril: Ethical concerns demand attention:
Off-target Effects: Unintended DNA edits can have unforeseen consequences.
Eugenics: Misusing CRISPR for designer babies raises social and ethical questions.
Equity: High costs could limit access to this potentially life-saving technology.
The Path Forward: Responsible development is crucial:
International Collaboration: Clear guidelines are needed for research and human trials.
Public Education: Open discussions ensure informed decisions about CRISPR.
Prioritize Safety and Ethics: Safety and ethical principles must be paramount.
CRISPR offers a powerful tool for a better future, but responsible development and addressing ethical concerns are essential. By prioritizing safety, fostering open dialogue, and ensuring equitable access, we can harness CRISPR's power for the benefit of all. (2998 characters)

India Clinical Trials Market: Industry Size and Growth Trends [2030] Analyzed...Kumar Satyam
Â
According to TechSci Research report, "India Clinical Trials Market- By Region, Competition, Forecast & Opportunities, 2030F," the India Clinical Trials Market was valued at USD 2.05 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.64% through 2030. The market is driven by a variety of factors, making India an attractive destination for pharmaceutical companies and researchers. India's vast and diverse patient population, cost-effective operational environment, and a large pool of skilled medical professionals contribute significantly to the market's growth. Additionally, increasing government support in streamlining regulations and the growing prevalence of lifestyle diseases further propel the clinical trials market.
Growing Prevalence of Lifestyle Diseases
The rising incidence of lifestyle diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and cancer is a major trend driving the clinical trials market in India. These conditions necessitate the development and testing of new treatment methods, creating a robust demand for clinical trials. The increasing burden of these diseases highlights the need for innovative therapies and underscores the importance of India as a key player in global clinical research.

Formulations â While APIs are responsible for the medicinal effect of a drug, we cannot directly consume an API
due to different reasons like stability, taste, odour etc. Hence APIs are combined with certain substances called
excipients to form the final drugs or formulations which are suitable for human consumption.

4. DRUG PRICE CONTROL ORDER( DPCO 2013)
⢠Previous DPCO order regulated drug prices based on the manufacturing costs stated by their manufacturers.
Manufacturers to ensure compliance within a period of 45 days of the date of such notification
⢠Ceiling prices would be calculated by taking simple average of all the drug brands having a market share of more
than 1%. NPPA caps price at 25% above this average.
⢠The final MRP of the drug would factor in Maximum of 16% to the retailer.
⢠This shifted the ceiling price calculation from a cost based to a market based method. This price ceiling was
applicable on NLEM (National list of essential medicines ) listing 348 bulk drugs, which are sold as 650
formulations. This covers only 14-17% of the Pharma Market
Maximum Retail Price = Ceiling price + Local Taxes as applicable
In July 2014, the National Pharmaceutical Pricing Authority (NPPA, came out with an order
capping the price of 108 drugs not included in the National List of Essential Medicines
(NLEM)
⢠The restrictions on NPPA's powers are with prospective effect and will not impact its
decision to cut prices of 108 drugs in July

IMPLICATIONS of DPCO 2013
⢠Market-based pricing (MBP) in some cases sets the ceiling price higher than even the market leader
The catch here is that all the existing manufacturers selling medicines at a price below the ceiling price will
have to maintain their existing MRP and wouldnât be allowed to increase their prices.
⢠There are several critical Cancer drugs which are not under DPCO 2013 even though WHO lists them as
essential
It will hurt manufacturers who are at the bottom of the
price ladder and making very little profit in case there is
price increase in raw material, conversion costs etc.
The NPPA only intervenes in cases where
drugs have significant sales and where the
annual price increases by 10%.
FOR DRUGS NOT UNDER PRICE CONTROL
High probability of undergoing
Regulation in near future
PITFALLS of DPCO
Fixed Dose Combinations (FDCs), i.e Combinations of two drugs (within 348) will be out of price control
⢠All India Drug Action Network and other NGOs wants all combination drugs, patented drugs, life saving
drugs and molecules in the same therapeutic class under price control.

9. For price controlled
products, Pharma
companies have increased
prices by 6.3% based on the
Wholesale Price Index (WPI)
in April 2014.
Thus building a STRONG
BRAND EQUITY is essential.
Good volume growth for
products from these brands
will partly offset the effect of
price reduction.
The share of MNC in the domestic
pharma market is expected to go up to
20% due to increase in prices of price-
controlled drugs and volume rise.
⢠Shift to major MNC brands is likely
after price cuts.

DRIVER
⢠Increase focus on targeted therapy and biological drugs which are much more effective than
standard chemotherapy and have much less side effects.
⢠Biosimilars offer a safe and effective alternative to originator biological therapies and potentially
significant cost savings to healthcare payers
Opportunity
⢠Biosimilars are promoted by European Regulatory bodies.US FDA has also approved biosimilars
in 2010. However, NO biosimilar has been approved yet in USA.
⢠Reliance Life Science is building an integrated Biosimilars business
RESTRAINTS
⢠The development, manufacture and licensing requirements for biosimilars are considerably
more rigorous than those for traditional generic drugs ( 8 years- & 75-250 Million USD)
⢠The cost savings are therefore unlikely to be as large with savings in the region of 15â30%

13. Encourage consumers to use mail service pharmacies for long-term prescription drug therapy, this however is not for
Chemotherapy drugs given under Physicianâs Guidance
MAIL SERVICE PHARMACIES
High efficiency obtained in the mail-order operations, including lower administrative overhead and
more ability to purchase medications in bulk and repackage them in larger orders (typically three-
month supplies).
Induce trials :Share the costs of prescription drugs via copayments (paying a fixed cost per prescription) or
coinsurance (sharing a direct proportion of costs).
Heath Card (similar to GSKâs Orange Card) : Significant discount on outpatient medications to senior
citizens and others who have limited incomes
⢠Patients from the lower socioeconomic class are not always able to undergo the full course of the
treatment, therefore low compliance
Optimization
Managing
In addition, the time lag of several days inherent in the mail-order environment where the patient is
not waiting for the prescription to be filled allows more effective use of techniques such as generic
substitution, therapeutic substitution, formulary compliance, and prior authorization. These can be
accomplished because the physician can be contacted about revising a prescription during this
additional time.
