摘要 | In the early part of the period 1954–1978, the rate of return on drugs was nearly double the cost of capital, but at the end of the period the return declined to the cost of capital or below. The author traces the causes of this decline in the profitability of drug innovation. The high early profitability attracted new firms, encouraged existing firms to increase their investment in pharmaceutical R&D, introduced many new significant drugs, and produced a more crowded drug market. Advances in pharmacological testing procedures and the effects of drug regulation increased the costs of R&D for a new drug. The declining effective patent period and the increasing competition from generic drugs further threaten the profitability of drug innovation. In view of this, the author maintains, it is crucial that the goal of increasing drug price competition be balanced against the potentially harmful effect on the rate of drug innovation. Meir Statman is assistant professor of finance in the School of Business, University of Santa Clara. Read the full PDF. |
