STAT+: A new list ranks large pharmaceutical companies by research and development
Idea Pharma ranks the largest pharmaceutical companies based on two measures: what it calls invention and what it calls innovation.
If you want a large pharmaceutical company to invent a new drug, your best bet is probably AstraZeneca. But if you have a medicine you’d like to get to market — and you want to see it generate revenue — you might be better off with Pfizer.
That’s the message from the 12th edition of the Pharmaceutical Innovation and Invention Index, produced by the consultancy Idea Pharma, which was released Thursday at the STAT Breakthrough Summit.
