Chinese biotech hamstrung by production issues

Article Abstract:

China's fast-developing biopharmaceutical industry is encountering a production bottleneck due to stricter intellectual property rules that have made drug makers less inclined to invest heavily in biotech manufacturing facilities. Experts believe that China's biotech manufacturers could still have an impact on the world market by focusing on low-cost production of micro-organism-based protein drugs, vaccines and antibodies for research and diagnostic use if they improve insurance policies, industry investment and talent training.

When the price is right

Article Abstract:

The UK's National Institute of Clinical Excellence (NICE) has rejected a newly approved biotech drug on the grounds that it is not cost-effective. The predictive and preventive healthcare grounded on the basis of economic benefits are becoming very common and this is pressuring the biotech drug producers to think about lowering their process, particularly if they want their drug to become the treatment of choice before the arrival of cheap generic versions.

China's biotech experiments

Article Abstract:

China's leading pharmaceutical companies are state owned and have no incentive to support the innovative drug research at a risky biotech startup. If China wants a globally competitive biotech industry, then more money and commitment is needed not just from the government but also from investors and pharma partners to bring opportunities for biotech entrepreneurs.
