Pharmaceutical Competitive Intelligence

When assessing the competitive landscape, many groups have a myopic view which may limit their understanding of important threats and opportunities. Whether your strategy is to defend and protect your market share or to grow through acquisition, having the most rigorous information and timely insight is critical to your success.

inThought provides comprehensive life science and pharmaceutical competitive intelligence with the unique market acuity needed to support your firm’s most important business decisions. Viewed through a lens of scientific expertise, business acumen and creative thinking, we deliver superior insights on the competition.

All of our work is custom and proprietary, based on the unique needs of each client. We work with you to create a list of novel key intelligence questions (KIQs) that will aid in data collection and analysis. We synthesize information and provide updates relevant to the KIQs as they become available. We also track the answers to your KIQs so you can see how they have changed over time, including details on events and opinion relevant to our assessment.

 

Our competitive intelligence monitoring allows you to quickly identify and gauge the latest clinical and commercial developments for your area of interest. inThought can help you track:

  • Companies involved in the development and marketing of the compounds, including marketing geographies
  • Mechanism(s) of action
  • Route of administration, administration devices, approved indications, and doses
  • Catalysts (trial results, approvals, patent expirations, etc.)
  • Efficacy and side effect/safety profiles as well as other relevant details from the clinical program
  • Summary of clinical trials and results, including post-marketing trials
  • Summary of ongoing and planned clinical trials
  • Key information from company sources pertaining to the specific drug and its future development and/or strategy (such as earnings conference calls, corporate presentations, etc.)

Daily continuous surveillance of relevant news, data, and events is crucial to your understanding of the space. But this is only part of the equation. Even more important is putting this information into context. Your dedicated inThought analyst will briefly summarize what happened, but more importantly, add their initial analysis on how it may alter the landscape and impact your portfolio.
