Overview of the world Pharmaceutical
Industry
The data as per the year 2007 - the generic industry is growing at a rate faster than the overall pharmaceutical industry
Reasons –
Economic changes
Changing consumer demands for low prices high quality drugs
Changing societal values
Significant health-care demands
Changing composition of workforces
The major contribution being the increase in competition amongst the generic and the brand name industry which has come due to the change in the USFDA approval process from a slow time consuming to a comparatively faster process

GLOBAL GENERIC MARKETS
The global pharmaceuticals industry generated total revenues of $615.1 billion in 2008.
The global market for generic drugs was worth $84 billion in 2009.
In 2014, the market is expected to amount to $129.3 billion, for a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9% in the 5-year period.
Sales of U.S. generic drugs currently dominate the market, at $34 billion in 2009 and projected to increase at a CAGR of 9.7% to $54 billion in 2014.
Japan’s generic drugs market is expected to have the highest rate of growth among major markets at 12.2%, increasing from $5.4 billion in 2009 to $9.6 billion in 2014.
Major Pharma company share will decrease due number of patent expiries and intensifying competition from generics.

GENERIC DRUG
Brand Name Drug - The brand name drug is the name under which a new innovator medication is developed and marketed. When a pharmaceutical company develops a new medication, they obtain patent for it.
Generic Drug – Generic drugs are considered identical, or bioequivalent to the brand-name originals.
They contain the same active substances and have the same quality, efficacy and safety.
Definition:
•GENERIC DRUG IS A PHARMACEUTICAL PREPARATION THAT IS
ESSENTIALLY SIMILAR TO AN ORIGINAL PRODUCT, INVOLVING AN
ACTIVE INGREDIENT THAT IS NO LONGER PROTECTED BY A PATENT*
AND IS SOLD UNDER A COMMON NAME WITH LITTLE OR NO
PROMOTION.
* THOUGH THE FORMULATION MAY OR MAY NOT BE PATENTED
14
FDA REQUIREMENTS FOR GENERIC DRUG
Phases Of validation
Contain the same active ingredients (Pharmaceutical equivalent)
Be identical in strength, dosage form, and route of administration
Have the same indications
Be bioequivalent
Meet the same batch requirements for identity, strength, purity, and quality
Be manufactured under the same strict standards of FDA's good manufacturing practice regulations required for reference Listed drug (RLD)-brand name Product listed in “Orange book” (www.fda.gov/cder/ob).
15
DEFINITIONS
Pharmaceutical Equivalence Same active drug ingredient ,same strength, same dosage form and route of administration, comparable labeling, meets compendial or applicable standard of strength.
BioavailabilityThe rate and extent to which the active moiety is absorbed from a drug Product and become available at site of action.
BioequivalenceTwo pharmaceutical equivalent drug product are bioequivalent if after drug administration, the bioavailabilities (rate and extent of drug availability) provide similar effect with respect to efficacy and safety.
Therapeutic EquivalenceTherapeutic equivalence means that a chemical equivalent of adrug product (i.e., containing the same amount of the same drug in the same dosage form) when administered to the same individuals in the same dosage regimen will provide essentially the sameefficacy and toxicity.
16
ACT GOVERNING DRUG APPROVAL
The act governing generic drug approval process of the
USFDA
“Hatch-Waxman Act of 1984”
or “Drug Price Control and Patent Term Restoration Act of
1984”.
17
Market was ruled by brand name drug manufacturers – innovators
Lack of competition
Innovator enjoyed his elite monopoly period within which no other brand of the same drug can enter into the market
Highest prices of the drugs
To stop these practices and to make user friendly drug market, the US congress passed the Hatch Waxman Act in 1984
Earlier Scenario (before “Hatch-Waxman Act of 1984” )
18
The Drug Price Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act of 1984, signed into Law on September 24, 1984
Hatch-Waxman was designed to speed entry of generic drugs to compete with patented pharmaceuticals
The results of the act seek to balance the interests of the branded manufacturers with those of generics
Birth of Generics: The Hatch-Waxman Act
19
Types of Process validation
Offset the drug approval delay:
Earlier innovators used to encounter delay in approval of their NDA which affected their brand entry in the market and hence financial loses!!!!!
Bring healthy competition and to avoid price rise:
Earlier no scope for generics to enter the market until innovator patent term expired as no provisions to challenge the validity of innovator patent. This product monopoly kept competion away and drug prices high as per innovator will!!!!!!
Make life easier for the generic:
Generic manufacturers used to face a lot of difficulties in doing all the pre-clinical and clinical studies as done by brand manufacturer to get generic approved!!!!!
Objectives of the act
20
Regulatory delays in brand approval were deciphered
The market exclusivity and the ‘effective patent life’ was extended from 8.5years (1980) to 13 years (late 1980s) and now it’s nearly 16-17years
Benefits received by the brand name manufacturers
21
The generic could challenge the validity of the patent issued to the innovator
The act provided with the stipulation to file an ANDA to leave out the expensive pre-clinical and clinical trials as done by the innovator
Provided with the provision of relying on the safety and efficacy data of the innovator drug and to perform a much cheaper ‘bioequivalence’ to establish equivalence with the innovator
Once approved the generic gets an exclusivity period of six months to market the product along with the innovator during which no other generic can be given approval
Benefits received by the generic manufacturers
22
The Orange Book
The FDA publishes a list of all drugs approved for marketing in the US under the title “Approved Drug Products with Therapeutic Equivalence Evaluations” - “Orange Book”
Lists the NDA’s and ANDA’s along with the expiry dates of patents and generic exclusivities
Ready reference of brand drug products for the generic companies who usually use this information to identify the reference for developing their generic version
Also contains therapeutic equivalence codes (two letter coding system e.g. AB)
A- prefixing product is considered to be substitutable
B- prefixing is a safe and effective product for use but is regarded in-equivalent and non-substitutable with the brand name drug product
23
Para I – there is no patent for the drug listed in the Orange Book
Para II – patent is listed but has expired
Para III – patent is listed, is valid but the generic wants approval to market the drug once the pertinent patent expires
Para IV – the generic manufacturer either challenges the validity of the patent asserting it to be invalid or fake, or it affirms the non-infringement of the brand name patent claims.
Most critical and gives rise to anti- competitive practices
ANDA certifications
24
The generic must have –
Same active ingredient,
Same route of administration,
Same dosage form,
Same strength,
Same condition of use
USFDA approval requirements: Brand name (NDA) vs Generic (ANDA)
25
NDA vs ANDA Review Process
26
The ANDA applicant must provide appropriate notice of a paragraph IV certification to each owner of the patent that is the subject of the certification and to the holder of the approved NDA to which the ANDA refers
The ANDA applicant may certify with a legal ground that a listed patent is invalid or will not be infringed by the manufacture, use, or sale of the generic product.
This gives an immediate right to innovator to file a patent infringement lawsuit against the generic manufacturer
The innovator can file this lawsuit within 45 days of the ANDA filing notice from the generic
This sets in a process which detains the FDA from giving approval to the generic for a period of 30 months
FDA is free to grant approval after 30 months which depends upon the result of the pending litigation
USFDA Approval Process (Para IV certification)
27
An incentive to the ‘first approved generic’ after filing a Para IV certification
This incentive gives the first generic an exclusivity period of 180 days to market and earn profits
During this period, the brand name drug is the only competition and FDA can not approve any other generic until this exclusivity period perishes
The 180 day cycle begins on the day the generic comes into the market for the first time or the day of courts decision in favor of the generic
The six month generic exclusivity
28
Warehousing patents and frivolous lawsuits
Also referred to as “Evergreening” of patents
Innovator may patent multiple attributes of a product like manufacturing process or metabolite and keeps on adding patents in the Orange Book, forcing the generic to wait for the patent to expire or file para IV which brings along risk of litigation and associated cost and delays!!!
Loopholes in Hatch-Waxman Act
29
CASE STUDY
Case Study – Buspar Case : BMS v Mylan Pharmaceuticals
BMS had US Patent 4,182,763 (Expiry – July 21, 2000)
Claims cover buspirone as an anxiolytic agent
Mylan filed para III against this patent and obtained tentative approval to market the drug not before July 22, 2000
BMS obtained another patent just 12 hours before the expiry of first patent covering the active metabolite of the buspirone having anxiolytic activity and listed it in the OB
Mylan filed para IV against this newly listed patent
BMS responded by filing infringement lawsuit immediately halting the final market approval
This gives the brand name manufacturer at least an additional two and a half years of product monopoly
30
Commonly referred to as “Sweetheart deals”
Allows the first generic manufacturer and the innovator to enter into an agreement and to have control when to introduce the generic
This would not trigger the 180days generic exclusivity period offered to the first generic
The FDA is bound not to approve another generic until the 180 day generic exclusivity period perishes
This allows the innovator and first generic to share financial awards keeping other generic competitors in an indeterminate state
Maneuvering the six month Generic Exclusivity
31
CASE STUDY
1) Diltiazem hydrochloride (Cardizem CD by Hoechst-Marion Roussel, Inc. (“HMRI”))Used to treat angina and hypertension
Andrx Pharmaceuticals Inc. was first ANDA filer with para IV for Cardizem CD; HMRI filed suit against Andrx
In September 1997, FDA tentatively approved Andrx’s generic product
Andrx would have been expected to be able to enter the market upon the expiration of 30 month stay in July 1998
However, Andrx and HMRI settled the litigation
In settling the litigation, both the parties agreed that, beginning upon the final FDA approval of Andrx’s generic product, HMRI would pay Andrx $10 million per quarter not to enter the market with its generic product until the conclusion of the patent litigation
32
CASE STUDY
2) Terazosin hydrochloride (Hytrin by Abbott)
Used for the treatment of high blood pressure and enlarged prostate
Litigation involves agreement between Abbott and Geneva Pharmaceuticals Inc. and also between Abbott and Zenith Goldline Pharmaceuticals Inc.
Agreement between Abbott and Geneva was an “interim” settlement that did not finally resolve the patent issues
Geneva agreed to accept $4.5 million per month from Abbott to refrain from marketing generic product of Hytrin until another generic maker sold a generic version in the USA or Geneva received a final, unappealable judgement that its proposed generic tablet did not infringe Abbott’s patents
Also, as part of the agreement, Geneva and Abbott allegedly agreed to continue the patent infringement litigation on Geneva’s generic tablet
33
Generic manufacturer must establish equivalence with the RLP developed by the innovator
FDA has established two basic criteria for the generic to be equivalent with the innovator –• In vitro equivalence criteria• In vivo bioequivalence
FDA Generic Approval Criteria: Establishing In Vitro Equivalence and Bioequivalence with the Reference Listed Product (RLP)
34
Comparison of the dissolution profile of generic drug and brand name drug by similarity factor of f2
f2 = 50 * log ( 1 + (1/n) summation (Rt –Tt) 2 ) 0.5 * 100 Comparison is done especially to assure similarity in product performance
Regulatory interest is knowing how similar the two curves are and to have a measure which is more sensitive to large differences at any particular time point
When the two profiles are identical, f2 = 100
FDA has set a public standard of f2 value between 50-100 to indicate similarity between dissolution profiles
In vitro equivalence criteria
35
Single dose; two-way crossover fasted or fed state studies - This means all the test subjects receive both the generic and the brand name product, done in a cross-over manner and products are given once to each subject on different occasions and the pharmacokinetic data are compared between the two treatments between each subject
This study gives an idea of the inter-subject variability
Replicate design – This design gives the same product to each subject more than once.
The overall number of subjects is reduced but the number of times each subject has to come increases
Two most common parameters which are studied and compared are Cmax and the AUC related to rate and extent of drug absorption in the blood respectively
These parameters are accessed using the 90% confidence intervals that must fit between 80-125%
36
The dissolution measurements of the two products (test and reference) should be made under the same test conditions
Dissolution time points should be same for both the products
f2 value of 50 or greater (50-100) ensures sameness or equivalence of the two curves, and, thus, the performance of the two products
f2 value less than 50 does not necessarily mean lack of similarity
37
Generic manufacturer has to conduct bioequivalence study in place of pre-clinical and clinical studies to establish equality with the innovator
Purpose of bioequivalence is to have a generic drug product which is substitutable for a reference product ‘without any additional prescriber intervention’
There should not be any change in the efficacy and no additional incidents of side effects
The usual study designs are single dose; two-way crossover fasted or fed state studies and replicate designs
In vivo equivalence
38
FDA allows the generic manufacturers to not have to study every single strength of a product and requires some in vitro tests for the same
e.g. the testing on the low strength version of an already bioequivalence established product. As lower strengths are proportional to their matching higher strengths; FDA only requires some in vitro testing
Other types of products which may be granted biowaiver include –
Parenteral solutions
Inhalational anaesthetics
topical solution
Oral solutions
Biowaivers
39
CONCLUSIONS
US congress passed the Hatch Waxman Act in 1984 for the benefit of consumers in an attempt to stop dominance and monopoly of the innovator and to encourage the use of cheaper and equally effectivedrugs.ie. GENERICS
