Expiration of a drug patent means end of the branded drug value and revenue stream for a majority of pharmaceutical firms. This loss of exclusivity (LOE) puts to risk a huge amount of money in global pharmaceutical sales.
LOE certainly brings about a steep decline in a drug sales. A brand's unit share declines to about 16% by the time generics arrive and play in the market for a year. However, this is not a "game over" scenario.
This deck discusses 3 key strategies to preserve value for the brands after patent expiration:
1. Preserve Brand Equity and Patient Loyalty
2. Develop an Over-the-Counter (OTC) Version
3. Launch a Generic Version
No matter which LOE strategy a company selects to maintain product revenue, early action and execution is critical.
LOE is part of the different phases of a product's lifecycle and should be strategically thought out and managed. The presentation also highlights other avenues to tap revenue opportunities besides extending a drug's patent life through reformulations and introducing new indications.
The slide deck also includes some slide templates for you to use in your own business presentations.
The PPT provides a comprehensive guide on managing the critical phase of Loss of Exclusivity (LOE) in the pharmaceutical industry. It emphasizes the importance of early planning and execution to mitigate the impact on revenue streams. The strategies outlined are not just theoretical, but are backed by practical templates and checklists to facilitate implementation.
The presentation also delves into the nuances of brand affinity and market dynamics, offering insights into how these factors influence the choice of LOE strategy. It includes a detailed timeline for planning and executing LOE strategies, ensuring that companies can navigate this challenging phase with precision and foresight. This resource is indispensable for pharmaceutical executives aiming to sustain brand value and revenue post-patent expiry.

This PPT slide outlines the critical importance of planning for Loss of Exclusivity (LOE) in the pharmaceutical sector, emphasizing that companies should initiate their strategies at least 2 years prior to the anticipated patent expiry date. This proactive approach allows ample time for thorough planning and execution of the chosen strategy, which is essential for maximizing product value.
The content is structured into 2 main sections. The first highlights the necessity of a two-year timeframe, warning that delaying action until the LOE date could lead to significant disadvantages. Companies that wait risk missing opportunities to optimize their product's market position and overall value. This section serves as a cautionary note, underscoring the potential repercussions of inadequate preparation.
The second section breaks down the LOE planning and execution timeline into 3 distinct phases: Pre-LOE, Peri-LOE, and Post-LOE. The Pre-LOE phase spans 2 years before the LOE date, focusing on foundational strategies. The Peri-LOE phase covers a one-year period that includes the 6 months leading up to and following the LOE date, emphasizing the need for agile responses during this transitional period. Finally, the Post-LOE phase extends for another year after the LOE, where companies can implement strategies to sustain brand value and revenue.
Overall, the slide conveys that meticulous planning is not just beneficial, but essential for effective strategy implementation. The structured timeline provides a clear roadmap for executives to follow, ensuring that they are well-prepared to navigate the complexities associated with patent expirations.
