Healthcare challenges drive unmet need for new and better medicines in APAC

The aging trends in Asia Pacific will continue to drive an increase in difficult-to-treat medical conditions such as cancer, and chronic diseases like heart diseases and eye diseases that are related to aging and diabetes. These healthcare challenges will continue to drive a high unmet need for new and better medicines. Hence,
driving and sustaining scientific innovation are becoming more important than ever – to reduce hospitalization, improve health and well-being and increase independence of seniors.

Rebooting Japan’s Biotech Growth Engine
Japan was once a global leader in life sciences innovation, responsible for nearly 30 per cent of all new drugs. However, its share has since dropped to less than 10 per cent. Between 1995 and 2018, Japan's contribution to the global pharmaceutical industry's valueadded declined by 70 per cent, from 18.5 to 5.5 per cent. Factors such  as strict price controls, reduced government investment in basic research, weak collaboration between industry and universities, and a slow regulatory process have significantly contributed to the decline in Japan's biopharmaceutical competitiveness, as noted in a 2022 paper by the Centre for Life Sciences 
Innovation, part of the Information Technology and Innovation Foundation, US. Japanese companies’ share of clinical trials also declined from 11 per cent in 2013 to 4 per cent in 2023. An IQVIA report found that the number of trials initiated by Japanese companies dropped from 501 in 2013 to 244 a decade later. Additionally, Japan launched only 20 new medicines in 2023, the lowest total since 2014, trailing behind the US and other major markets. Recognising this, the Japanese government 
has announced several initiatives designed to reshape the country’s biopharma ecosystem. These efforts include substantial increases in capital for venture funds, 
targeted subsidies for therapeutic drug development, and a suite of tax incentives aimed at empowering investors, entrepreneurs, and startup employees.

Addressing Root Causes of Brain Disorders with Innovative Therapeutics 

Neuroscience is a complex market encompassing a range of neurological conditions. Drug research and development for diseases related to the nervous system has always been challenging. While the oncology sector has seen remarkable progress with new therapies, neuroscience has historically lagged in providing effective cures or treatments for symptoms. However, there is now promising progress in understanding the intricate biology of these conditions and identifying new drug targets. A wave of novel late-stage candidates is advancing through the development pipeline, offering hope for treating serious Central Nervous System (CNS) disorders and entering the market. Recent high-profile approvals, such as Eisai's Leqembi for Alzheimer’s and Eli Lilly's Kisunla (donanemab-azbt) for the same condition, have significantly bolstered the morale of firms dedicated to developing neurological treatments. The neuroscience sector is suddenly back in action, with pharma companies renewing their interest, spurred by recent US FDA approvals in neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s. This renewed focus has catapulted neuroscience into one of the most sought-after areas.

Innovation Takes Centre Stage in Paediatric healthcare
Children represent approximately one-third of the world's population, with over 580 million  in the East Asia and Pacific region alone (Source: UNICEF). Historically underrepresented in healthcare care delivery and innovation, the landscape is evolving as governments and healthcare organisations in the region strive to address paediatric healthcare needs. Paediatric healthcare spans recommended immunisations before adulthood to developmental health, mental health, neonatal care and rare diseases, among others. Let’s deep dive into the innovations enhancing children’s well being in the region.

IPO FEVER GRIPS BIOTECH  INDUSTRY
After two tumultuous years marred by geopolitical tensions and recession, the biotech 
sector IPOs (initial public offering) is showing signs of recovery. Experts are hopeful 
that this year will revive the public equity markets for biotech companies. Twelve 
biotech companies have gone public this year, raising a total of nearly $1.5 billion, 
compared to a total of only nineteen biotech companies, throughout 2023. Are biotech IPOs poised for an upswing? Is the worst finally over for biotech IPOs? Let's find out.

What’s APAC’s Recipe of Success in CLINICAL TRIALS MARKET?
Asia-Pacific (APAC) is emerging as one of the most promising and resilient markets for clinical trials. According to a report by Clinical Trials Arena, between 2017 and 2022, the region posted growth in clinical trials of around 10 per cent, outstripping growth in other major regions including the US, Europe and the rest of the world (RoW). Asia’s growth far exceeded the overall average figure of 5.3 per cent per year. As of 2023, the number of trials reached 14,346 in APAC. Let's delve into the thriving clinical research landscape in the region and explore the trends driving its growth.

Addressing Accessibility and Affordability of CELL & GENE THERAPIES 
Cell and gene therapies (CGT) are one of the hottest sectors in the pharmaceutical industry. Quite a few companies in the field are making remarkable advancements toward potentially curative treatments for challenging diseases using groundbreaking science. With lower R&D development costs than in advanced markets, China is becoming an attractive market for the development of CGT, and therefore may emerge as a strong competitor of overseas-made CGT, notes a 
GlobalData report. Bayer AG, recently announced the global expansion of its life science incubator network, Bayer Co. Lab, to Shanghai, China and Kobe, Japan. The new site in China will focus on oncology and CGT innovations. While India lags behind China in the production of cell and gene therapies, a wave of new biotech startups is emerging to address this challenge. Immuneel Therapeutics and ImmunoACT are currently developing CAR-T cell therapies. The latter’s  NexCAR19 therapy received approval from India's Central Drug Standards Control organisation (CDSCO) for treating relapsed or refractory B-cell lymphomas and leukaemia. Despite a steady stream of regulatory approvals and promising  growth prospects, the high manufacturing costs associated with these therapies often render them inaccessible to the majority of patients. To address this issue, companies are actively striving to streamline and optimise the highly intricate and labour-intensive process of cell and gene therapy manufacturing.

ENGENDERING INCLUSIVITY & DIVERSITY IN LIFE SCIENCES
We are celebrating International Women's Day this time around by spotlighting women's roles and challenges in life sciences, spanning leadership, clinical trials participation and pay parity issues.

Let’s recap the 2023 predictions and find out if they panned out as predicted.

Addressing Diabetes-related  complications 
Southeast Asia is currently home to 90 million adults diagnosed with diabetes, and this number is expected to reach 113 million by 2030, according to the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) Diabetes Atlas 2022. Out of these 90 million, 46 million remain undiagnosed. The delayed diagnosis of diabetes leads to prolonged periods of uncontrolled  hyperglycemia, resulting in severe diabetes related complications, such as diabetic retinopathy (eye problems), diabetic foot ulcers (DFU), diabetic nephropathy (kidney problems), and cardiovascular diseases. The vast number of people affected by diabetes, including many who are undiagnosed or at risk, presents a massive market for innovative treatments and preventive solutions. New technologies and novel treatment approaches offer hope for better prevention and management of these diabetes-related complications.

Big Pharma Sets Sights on Middle East
The Middle East, traditionally renowned for its prominence in the travel and oil and gas industries, is shifting its focus towards the life sciences sector. The region is actively forging numerous partnerships, initiatives, and programmes, and spending billions to establish itself as a major hub for life sciences. As the population of the region continues to grow and age, there is a clear and growing demand for locally manufactured medical treatments and products. Big pharma players are also making substantial inroads into the Middle East, with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA), 
Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) leading the way in these regional efforts. Areas such as rare diseases, genomics, personalised medicines, and pharmaceutical manufacturing have emerged as hotspots in the Middle East. Let’s delve deeper 
into the region’s endeavours to become a biotech powerhouse.

Multipronged Approach Against Alzheimer’s Disease
In July 2023, Eisai and Biogen received full traditional approval from the United States Food and Drug Administration (US FDA) for their Alzheimer’s drug Leqembi (lecanemab-irmb). This drug is the first to target the disease’s progression rather than merely addressing its symptoms. The approval has infused excitement and hope into the field of Alzheimer’s drug development, known for frequent drug failures. Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is an escalating global health crisis. In 2020, the World Health Organisation (WHO) noted over 50 million people had dementia worldwide; 60 per cent of them lived in low- to middle-income countries. The Asia Pacific region bears a hefty burden with dementia care costs at $185 billion, straining healthcare in populous economies, according to ADI (Alzheimer’s Disease International). As we mark World Alzheimer’s Day this year on September 21, let’s take a stock of the advancements in the research and development in the Asia Pacific.

TAIWAN BIOMED INDUSTRY EYES $32B 
Biomedicine is a top priority for Taiwan, with the government aiming to position the country as the leading hub for biomedical research and development in the Asia-Pacific region. By 2025, Taiwan aims to create 20 new medicines, introduce 80 high-value medical devices to the market, and elevate the biomedicine industry into a trillion-NT-dollar (approximately $32 billion) sector. The government has taken various initiatives, established biomedicines clusters and tweaked policies to achieve this goal. Has the effort paid off? How far has the country come to achieve its goals?

TECH-POWERED WAR ON AMR
The consistent increase in antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is threatening to undo many of the gains of modern medicine. The situation is particularly alarming in the Asia Pacific region, which could witness around 50 per cent of global annual AMR-related mortality by 2050. Around 62 per cent of antibiotics in the region are used without prescriptions, indicating inappropriate usage and significantly increasing
the risk of AMR strain emergence, according to a report from LEK Consulting Group. All this makes the region an epicentre of AMR and its consequences. In response to the growing threat, countries in the region have taken steps to tackle the AMR threat. These include a National Action Plan on AMR (NAP-AMR), antimicrobial stewardship efforts, diagnostics surveillance etc. However, the million-dollar
question is whether these steps will be effective and enough. Let’s find out.

TAPPING FULL POTENTIAL OF NANOPARTICLES
Nanoparticles are another powerful tool in the biotech industry’s arsenal for targeted drug delivery. Their extremely small size, measured in nanometres, makes them highly effective carriers for therapeutic agents. These miniature carriers can be customised to encase drugs, benefiting from their biocompatibility, controlled release capabilities, stability, and low toxicity. The precision offered by nanoparticles opens up a world of possibilities for treating various diseases, including infectious diseases, cancer, and neurological disorders. These tiny particles offer tremendous
potential for targeted drug delivery, enhanced therapeutic efficacy and precise disease targeting. Moreover, the global market for nanoparticle drug delivery is projected to grow significantly, reaching $123.6 billion by 2025, according to BCC Research. Let’s deep dive into the fascinating field of nanomedicines, advancements and challenges in nanoparticle drug delivery.

$15B Pharma R&D Spends ROCKS APAC
Earlier seen as a generic powerhouse, Asia is now an important hub for pharma R&D innovation. The total gross expenditure by major companies on R&D across the Asia Pacific region crossed the $15 billion mark (approx) in 2022. Oncology, neurology, and immunology continue to draw a significant chunk of this investment. BioSpectrum Asia examines how top pharma companies in the region are
allocating their R&D budgets and the impact of the ensuing R&D endeavours on the industry.

A World Sans MALARIA
Malaria has long been a major public health concern in the Asia Pacific region, particularly in South East Asia (SEA) affecting millions of people. According to a latest report on malaria from the World Health Organisation (WHO), there were approximately 5.4 million cases and 9000 deaths in the region in 2021. The SEA region has nine countries where malaria is prevalent, and their contribution to the global burden of malaria cases is two per cent. India is the main contributor to the malaria cases in the region, accounting for 82.5 per cent of them, followed by Indonesia with 15.6 per cent, and Myanmar with 1.6 per cent. These three countries were responsible for almost all of the malaria cases in the region, making up 99.7 per cent of the total estimated cases. Governments, healthcare organisations, and communities are implementing innovative strategies, technologies, and programmes that can help curb the spread of malaria. Though these efforts were hampered because of COVID-19, in 2022, the WHO South-East Asia Region renewed its commitment to eliminate malaria by 2030, with countries pledging accelerated action and greater efforts at the sub-national and community levels. Other parts of Asia also progressed well. China was declared Malaria free in June 2021, after 70 years of fighting. In its fights against malaria, Asian countries have recently
announced significant investment including a $1.9 million investment in February 2023 by Japan’s GHIT Fund for the research and development of a new malaria drug, and a $1 million contribution by Singapore’s Ministry of Health to the Global Fund to fight AIDS, TB, and Malaria, announced in December 2022. While observing World Malaria day on April 25, let’s explore the current status of Asia’s malaria elimination efforts, highlighting the progress made and strategies needed for a malaria-free future.

HOW PLAUSIBLE IS ENDINGHOW PLAUSIBLE IS ENDING TB SCOURGE?
Tuberculosis (TB) has been the leading cause of death from a single infectious agent, ranking above HIV/AIDS for a long time. And, presently, Asia Pacific is right in the thick of it. South-eastern Asia (SEA) is home to 26 per cent of the world’s population with a 43 per cent burden of TB incidence, according to the World Health Organisation’s (WHO) global TB report 2021. Over the last three years, countries around the world, including in Asia and the Pacific, have faced double pandemics –COVID-19 and TB. Unfortunately, during this time, progress toward TB elimination stalled and, in some cases, reversed. COVID-19 made it harder for people to access TB diagnostics and care, eading to increases in cases and deaths since 2019. Four countries, India, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Myanmar accounted for most of the estimated increase in TB deaths, globally, in 2021. Not all is lost though. The countries in the region, especially India and Indonesia, have renewed their efforts to eliminate TB. India launched the TB Free India campaign – a plan to eliminate tuberculosis by 2025, five years ahead of the target set by the UN’s sustainable development goals. Indonesia received a $300 million loan from the World Bank to improve overage, quality and efficiency of TB response in the country. When observing World TB day this year on March 24, let’s take stock of the progress made by Asian countries in eliminating this dreaded disease and the way forward.

CANCER THERAPEUTICS GAINING GROUND IN APAC
Cancer, the leading cause of death in most parts of the world, is a veritable Achilles heel for the pharma industry. Not surprising that pharma companies continue to dedicate a significant part of their R&D budget for Oncology. Cancer medicine spending rose to $185 billion globally in 2021 and is expected to reach more than $300 billion by 2026, as per IQVIA. China’s oncology spending now exceeds the rest of emerging countries and is driven by expanded access to new therapies
and offset by lower prices. Chinese and other Asian cancer drug developers are at the forefront of driving innovation in this space. The focus of cancer treatment is rapidly shifting from a traditional one-size-fits-all approach to precision medicine, tailored treatments for individual patients. The next wave of innovations making headlines in the cancer space include immunotherapies, vaccines, CAR-T therapies, PD-1/L1 inhibitors, light-activated drugs etc. Many drug makers in Asia are investing in new science and hope to develop the next holy grail in oncology. Let’s take a deep
dive into the status of cancer drug research and development in the Asia Pacific (APAC).

Life Sciences Trends to Watch for in 2023
The past two years have been a rollercoaster ride for the global economy and the pharma industry hasn’t been impervious to the major financial upheavals either. Yes, it’s the Pandemic and Post-Pandemic world that’s been influencing people from all walks of life and industries, alike. Buzzwords notwithstanding, we do have to thank the pandemic situation that forced all stakeholders to innovate and pool the best and brightest resources to keep the Life Sciences industry thriving. While all other industries either lost steam in their growth plans, pharma boomed, not unlike the Phoenix rising from the ashes. It is this streak of resilience and growth that we want industry insiders to comment on. With curtains down for 2022, it’s time to look to the new year without the trepidation of the looming ‘Great Reset’. On an upbeat note, BioSpectrum brings you 23 trends and projections for 2023 that could reshape and influence our collective future.

Invincible Diabetes Turns APAC Into Pharma Goldmine
There are over 235 million diabetic patients in Asia. China and India account for almost half of the world’s diabetic population. By 2030, without intervention, both China and India combined will have nearly half a billion diabetics. These are grim figures but for pharma firms, they represent a huge opportunity, and big pharma firms are spending billions in search of the next blockbuster drug for diabetes,
according to the estimates from Singapore-based Asian Diabetes Prevention Initiative (ADPI). The diabetes care drugs market is highly fragmented in Asia Pacific (APAC) region with a few major manufacturers gaining presence in major countries of the APAC market, while the remaining market comprises other local or regionspecific manufacturers. Mergers and acquisitions that happened between players in the recent past helped companies strengthen their market presence, as well as drive innovations, helping the diabetes drugs market to increase in the APAC region. Let’s look at who owns the more significant piece of the pie and the competitive landscape of diabetes treatment in the region.

Can Technology Efface SLEEP DISORDERS?
The world is wide awake. Sleep disorders are on the rise globally and the Asia Pacific is no
different. There are numerous studies documenting how sleep loss is rampant and becoming an epidemic. Approximately 45 per cent of people worldwide don’t get enough sleep. Asians have the shortest average sleep time, according to researchers from Flinders University, Australia. To combat these, firms are now turning to technology. The emergence of wearables, smart devices, trackers, and patches has made widespread remote sleep monitoring possible. Insights gained from the data collected by these devices are used to improve understanding of sleep and create preventative sleep loss strategies. Let’s look at how healthcare firms are trying to unlock the science of sleep disorders diagnosis and treatment by leveraging new tech.

INCUBATORS IGNITING BIOSCIENCE ECOSYSTEM
Incubators and accelerators are driving small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Asia
through the development of novel therapeutics and encouraging innovations and
commercialisation. Biotechnology incubators provide a stimulating environment that
attracts investors, talent, and companies to collaborate on research, thereby fostering
industry growth. While the appetite for laboratory space is constantly growing among
biotech ventures, countries in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region are actively investing
to construct life science hubs that foster innovation strategies and strengthen R&D
capabilities. Let’s explore prominent startup incubators and accelerators in key APAC
economies that are cultivating biotech innovations to create unicorns.

Keeping Pace with MUTATING VIRUSES 
A surge in the pandemic has forced the pharma industry to deliver a wide-spectrum vaccine to fight mutation-prone SARS-CoV-2, pledging to prevent future outbreaks. WHO states that the most extensive vaccination campaign in history is providing prophylactic results by delivering more than 12 billion doses of the COVID-19 vaccine, protecting 60 per cent of the global population as of June 2022. Now the next-generation COVID-19 vaccines are countering the
challenge of enhancing the immune response to tackle the emerging COVID-19 variants. It is therefore imperative to remain vigilant and upgrade vaccine candidates to emerging virus sublineages. In order to gain a competitive position in the market, vaccine manufacturers are investing in advanced platform technologies. Let’s take a closer look at some of these leading vaccines approved in APAC as broad spectrum virucide inhibitors.

HOW IS BIOMANUFACTURING DRIVING CDMO MARKET?
A successful business model for the pharmaceutical industry is driven by the outsourcing trend, making contract evelopment and manufacturing organisations (CDMOs) an integral component of drug development value chains. Increasing regulatory complexity, high development costs, and fierce competition have driven drug companies to leverage CDMOs to accelerate their go-to-market strategy, and Asia Pacific (APAC) is not an exception. Let’s navigate through prime achievements and potential trends in the APAC CDMO arena which helped the world heal during the pandemic and is further helping to build a resilient health system

Targeting Optimal DRUG DELIVERY
In recent years, several innovations have emerged around long-acting formulations and medical device development to improve patient compliance. Consequently, the growing need for controlled drug release coupled with technological advancements in pharmacology is promoting the adoption of novel drug delivery systems (NDDS). It is now crucial for Asia Pacific (APAC) drug formulators to learn and act upon these advances in therapeutic modalities that address long-standing bioavailability, dosage, and ingestion challenges of drug components to remain competitive in the global market. Simultaneously, it’s essential to optimise the therapeutic efficacy and safety profiles of a drug by regulating dosage parameters, while DDS plays an important role in administering drugs, vaccines, and therapeutic agents. Optimising these techniques enhance the performance
efficacy ratio of medications by economically managing therapeutics assets. Let’s examine recent advancements in drug delivery modalities that are greatly encouraging stakeholders’ collaboration among innovators, manufacturers, investors, and contract development and manufacturing companies  CDMOs) who are capitalising on competitive advantages.

Oz BUDGET BOLSTERS HEALTHCARE
Circumstances have continued to evolve as the COVID-19 Omicron variant has added further pressure to Australia’s healthcare sector, as well as increasing supply chain disruptions, bringing about staff shortages and reducing household spending. With a Federal election due on May 21, 2022 to elect members of the 47th Parliament of Australia, Josh Frydenberg , Treasurer of the Commonwealth of Australia presented the Federal Budget on March 29. The Coalition government
led by Scott Morrison is investing in a stronger health system as part of its plan for a stronger future through a record $132 billion in 2022–23 Budget, increasing to $140 billion in 2025–26, with a total commitment of $537 billion over the next four years. This record funding will ensure Australians have access to improved healthcare, when and where they need it, helping them to lead healthier lives, with improved health outcomes and to provide ongoing protection against COVID-19.

WHY HOLOMEDICINE IS RAPIDLY GAINING GROUND
