Biologics
There are 907 biologics reported now in the
pipeline represent the cutting edge of
medicine.
They will be used to treat cancer, infectious
diseases, autoimmune disorders, etc.
Targeting 100 diseases--not only treat, but to
prevent or diagnose.

Biologics
1/3 of new drug approvals in developed
markets have been biologics
Accounted for 6 of the 10 best selling drugs in
2015
Probability of clinical success is less than 12%
Biologics
Biologics offer major pharmaceutical
manufacturers built in patent protection.
The product is the process. Living systems can
be very sensitive to minor changes in the mfg
process and can change the way the biologic
functions
Biologics
So the sheer size of these APIs (active
pharmaceutical ingredients) are behemoths
when comparing their relative molecular mass
to even the largest of conventional drugs.
Highly unstable, susceptible to vibration, light
and temperature excursions.
The COLD Chain
Biologics
The Centers For Disease Control and Prevention
estimates that $300 million of vaccines alone
are destroyed due to improper storage and
distribution.
Numbers for other bio-therapeutics not known!
Figures include only product known or
suspected to be compromised.

The Last Mile
An assessment of 721 primary care doctors
offices revealed 17 to 37 percent of staff
members had exposed their vaccine inventory to
improper conditions.

Placing vaccine in the refrigerator door
Placing food in same cooling unit
Leaving inventory out on table during group
vaccinations
Returning warm, unused doses to refrigerator
