BMI View: Switching patients to this follow-up product will help Sanofi to counter the anticipated hit in revenues when cheaper versions of
blockbuster drug Lantus become available. The company will also benefit from continued growth in the diabetes market and high barriers
to biosimilar entry. EC approval will follow in Q215.
The end of February saw Sanofi announce two positive developments for its Lantus successor, Toujeo (insulin glargine [rDNA origin]
injection, 300 U/mL), a once-daily long-acting basal insulin. Firstly, the FDA has approved Toujeo to improve glycaemic control in
adults living with Type I and II diabetes, and the drug is expected to be available in the US at the beginning of Q215; and secondly,
the EMA's CHMP has issued a positive opinion recommending the approval of Toujeo.
Lantus Patent Expiry To Cause Challenges
Insulin glargine is the active ingredient in Sanofi's blockbuster long-acting insulin, Lantus (insulin glargine [rDNA origin] injection,
100 U/mL). Despite reporting an increase in revenues and net income in Q414 and the company projecting a stable or slightly
growing 2015 EPS versus 2014 EPS, recent pricing pressure, notably in the US, has cast some uncertainty on Sanofi's growth
prospects. Additionally, the company has stated that sales at its Diabetes division, which accounts for about 20% of its total revenue,
would be flat in 2015. US patent protection for Lantus, the company's bestselling drug, was lost in February whilst in Europe, the
drug's patent is due to expire in May, however as yet, no other insulin glargine products have been approved by the FDA. In Q414
Lantus sales increased 10.8% to EUR1.77bn (USD2.00bn). In the US, Lantus grew by 10.1% to EUR1.19bn (USD1.35bn) in Q414. Lantus
had 2014 net sales of EUR6.34bn (USD7.09bn), up by 12.1% at constant exchange rates; these sales represented 87.2% of Sanofi's
total for Diabetes, which was EUR7.27bn (USD8.13bn), and 22.9% of the full-year sales for Pharmaceuticals, which were EUR27.7bn
(USD31.0bn).
As Sanofi strives to reduce its reliance on blockbuster drugs such as Lantus and Lovenox (enoxaparin sodium injection) and expand
its presence in biotech, animal health and emerging markets, it is BMI's view that the company's Board will have to be increasingly
transparent regarding company strategy in order to restore investor confidence in the company, particularly as 2015 is set to be a
challenging year for the French drugmaker.
Toujeo Is Sanofi's Lantus Successor
Diabetes is one of Sanofi's seven growth platforms. As noted by the firm, despite basal insulin being a cornerstone treatment
for diabetes for decades, significant unmet medical needs remain a reality, with approximately half of patients on treatment not
reaching their blood glucose level targets. In addition, optimal insulin dose is often not reached during initiation or maintenance
phase. Toujeo is a next-generation, once-daily basal insulin based on a broadly-used molecule (insulin glargine) with a well-
established benefit-risk profile. Its compact subcutaneous depot leads to more stable and more prolonged pharmacokinetic/
pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) profiles. Toujeo has demonstrated a more stable and a prolonged glycaemic control that lasts beyond 24
hours compared with Lantus with low within-individual, within-day blood glucose variability.
The approval of Toujeo was based on FDA review of results from the EDITION clinical trial programme, which was comprised of a
series of international Phase III studies evaluating the efficacy and safety of Toujeo in more than 3,500 adults from broad and diverse
diabetes populations (Type I and II). In the clinical trial programme leading to approval, once-daily Toujeo was compared to that of
once-daily Lantus in open-label, randomised, active-control, parallel, treat-to-target studies of up to 26 weeks of duration with six
months safety extension. The positive CHMP opinion of Toujeo was also based on results from the EDITION clinical trial programme.

BMI View: As Bayer seems geared for the divestment of its Diabetes Care franchise, the division's underperformance epitomises similar
plights amongst other companies with medical devices targeted for the diabetes market. An unfavourable reimbursement environment
and pricing pressures will continue to weigh on new market entrants.
Bayer has commenced a year-long life sciences reorganisation, which is due to be completed in January 2016, as it prepares to list
its MaterialScience plastics unit on the stock market, according to reports by Bloomberg. The company was cited as stating that its
incentives revolve around enhancing its focus on the more profitable pharmaceuticals and crop chemicals and seeds businesses.
Coupled with Bayer's vocal interest in pursuing acquisitions within the veterinary medicines segment, this latest development is a
key indicator that the company has set its sights on divesting the Diabetes Care business.
The MaterialScience business is estimated to be worth about EUR10.3bn (USD11.7bn) and includes technology geared at reducing
energy costs and other spending in the manufacturing of plastics. Prioritisation of its divestment ahead of the Diabetes Care
business is comprehensible given the latter's lower valuation at EUR2.0bn (USD2.5bn). It serves as a necessary step to improve
overall margins by generating more substantial funds in the near term, which could be redirected at acquisitions within Bayer's
other strong businesses, and leaner organisation.The Diabetes Care business has been underperforming in recent
quarters, with dynamics for a recovery looking unfavourable
stemming from pricing pressures, high competition, and an
unfavourable reimbursement environment. Sales of Bayer
Diabetes Care's primary asset, the Contour series of blood glucose
monitoring systems, has declined from EUR189mn (USD216mn)
in Q312 to EUR167mn (USD191mn) in Q314. The company's total
sales, however, over the same period increased from EUR9,661mn
(USD11.0bn) to EUR10,187mn (USD11.6bn).BMI considers the decision to divest the MaterialSciences business
in a phased manner as favourable for Bayer, as improvements in
bottom-line margins and cost efficiency materialise in the near
term, and help the company realise higher value for its remaining
stake. However, given the Diabetes Care business' lower asset-base
and continued underperformance, the company is unlikely to follow
a similar phased approach and will instead seek a direct divestment.
Reports of Bayer exploring a divestment of its Diabetes Care
business first surfaced in November 2014 [1].Continued on page 3...HighlightsPatent Ruling Edges Pulmicort Respules Toward Lifecycle End

BMI View: The US drug-eluting stent market will garner favourable upward momentum, contrary to recent years, as pricing pressures increase. The rising burden from cardiovascular disease, enhanced public access to healthcare, and competition from new market entrants will lure medium-term demand.
Medtronic has gained significant market share from competitors within the US drug-eluting stent (DES) market, according to data from Bloomberg. In Q414 (calendar period ended December 31 2014), revenue from DES sales in the US exceeded USD330mn, with Medtronic, Abbott Vascular (Abbott Laboratories) and Boston Scientific yielding an overwhelming majority share.
In Q414, Boston Scientific's DES market share declined 40bps to 35.3% compared with the prior year period, as sales decreased 3.2% to USD116.9mn. The company's previous favourable market share has suffered progressive erosion since Q411 due to product introductions from its competitors, in particular Medtronic's Resolute Integrity and Abbott's Xience Alpine.
Abbott also saw its market share decline by 350 bps to 35.2% in Q414 as revenue declined 15.3% to USD116.7mn compared with Q413. This was due in part to Medtronic's market share gains as the company generated USD97.6mn revenue, equivalent to a 14.7% increase compared with Q414. This equated to an increase in market share from 24.6% to 29.5%. Medtronic's capacity to bulk sell appears critical as the company continues to place downward pressures on its competitors.
Downward Pricing Pressures To Continue
Whilst the DES market in the US has been moderately flat in recent years with little upward momentum, BMI forecasts this to alter, as pricing pressures continue. Since Q113, the average price of a DES has declined 9.6% to USD1,400, according to estimates from Bloomberg, with most companies pricing similarly. The rising purchasing power of healthcare institutions is key to this downward trend in price.

BMI View: Hyperion Therapeutics is making the best of a bad situation; this agreement allows all of the involved parties to draw a line
under events and move on. Hyperion will need to pick itself up from the Andromeda acquisition and not be daunted by its experience when
considering other potential deals. The fallout also ends what could have been a promising new product; however, new possibilities may yet
emerge from the ashes for another company.
Hyperion Therapeutics has amicably resolved its disputes and entered into a completion of Phase III trial, option and mutual
release agreement with Clal Biotechnology Industries (CBI) and Yeda Research and Development. The agreement is with
regard to DiaPep277, a Type I diabetes product candidate developed by Andromeda Biotech, a company Hyperion acquired from
CBI in June 2014.
As announced in September 2014, Hyperion will complete the ongoing DIA-AID 2 Phase III trial of DiaPep277 to treat new onset
Type I diabetes, but will not take DiaPep277 forward beyond completion of the DIA-AID 2 trial. Hyperion's estimated budget for
completion of the DIA-AID 2 trial remains unchanged at USD10.5mn. Subject to agreed restrictions, a steering committee consisting
of representatives from CBI, Yeda and Hyperion will oversee and direct the completion of the trial, the analysis of its results and
interactions with regulatory authorities.
CBI will have an option to acquire Andromeda, with the option expiring on September 30 2015. CBI will pay a non-refundable option
payment of USD2.5mn at signing, payable in shares of Hyperion stock currently held by CBI. Hyperion intends to use the option
payment to offset any potential increases to the DIA-AID 2 trial budget incurred at the steering committee's direction. Any increases
in this budget beyond USD2.5mn, if incurred at the steering committee's direction, will be reimbursed by CBI. If CBI does exercise its
option, it will pay an option exercise price of USD3.5mn, payable in shares of Hyperion stock currently held by CBI.
If CBI's option is exercised, Andromeda will be obligated to pay Hyperion future contingent payments if and to the extent that it
or its shareholders receive revenues or certain other proceeds, which are capped at USD36.5mn. This amount, along with the
option exercise price that Hyperion may receive, approximates the total amount Hyperion will have invested in Andromeda by the
option exercise date. However, if CBI does not exercise its option, the agreement will see DiaPep277's intellectual property rights
revert to Yeda. Mutual releases of DiaPep277-related claims were exchanged amongst Hyperion, Andromeda, CBI, Yeda and Teva
Pharmaceutical Industries.
Andromeda has also entered into a release agreement with Evotec International, pursuant to which Andromeda has settled its
disputes with Evotec regarding Evotec's assertions that Hyperion's acquisition of Andromeda triggered a EUR3.38mn milestone
payment to it and that it suffered harm from the unravelled situation in relation to DiaPep277. Under the terms of this release, Evotec
is releasing its claims against Andromeda in exchange for a USD500,000 payment from Andromeda.

BMI View: The current definition of an orphan disease cannot be sustained. Personalisation of medicine has led to an increasing number of
diseases being classified as orphan. Oncology and big pharma have dominated the orphan drug market, leaving rare hereditary diseases
lacking treatments. A rethink of orphan medicine will be needed to focus on treatments for rare diseases that do not have the potential to
become blockbusters.Orphan drugs are increasing in popularity among drug developers. This could in part be down to the incentives to develop such
a drug. These include tax credits for qualified clinical testing and extended exclusivity. In addition, a marketing application for a
prescription drug product that has received orphan designation is not subject to a prescription drug user fee unless the application
includes an indication for other than the rare disease or condition for which the drug was designated.
2014 was a record year for the FDA handing out orphan drug designations (ODDs), and in total, 286 ODDs were granted. The FDA is
not alone in handing out this status, as the EMA gave 172 designations in 2014. However, some drugs have gained numerous ODDs
for different indications. The number of ODDs has risen substantially since 2000, when only 70 were handed out. So far in 2015, 62
ODDs have been granted, and this could lead to another record year in 2015.
The FDA Office of Orphan Products Development (OOPD) pro-
gramme has enabled the development and marketing of more than
400 drugs and biologic products for rare diseases since 1983. In
contrast, fewer than 10 such products supported by industry came
to market between 1973 and 1983. In 2000, a total of 13 drugs with
ODDs were approved by the FDA, and by 2014 this had risen to 40.
It is worth noting that of these, in 2000, three were cancer drugs ap-
proved, and in 2014, 19 were cancer drugs. Hereditary diseases gain
the most designations; however, cancer treatments have the high-
est approval rate. The ODD programme provides orphan status to drugs and
biologics which are defined as those intended for the safe and
effective treatment, diagnosis or prevention of rare diseases/
disorders that affect fewer than 200,000 people in the US, or that
affect more than 200,000 persons but are not expected to recover
the costs of developing and marketing a treatment. The EMA notes
that rare diseases are life-threatening or chronically debilitating
conditions affecting no more than five in 10,000 people in the EU,
equal to fewer than 250,000 people.

A total of 80% of rare diseases have identified genetic origins, and affect between 3% and 4% of births. Other rare diseases are due to degenerative and proliferative causes.

Editor's NoteRoche Most At Risk From Upcoming Biosimilar Oncology Market
BMI View: Whilst the biosimilar market is still very much in its infancy, biosimilar oncology products represent a lucrative new frontier. No biosimilar oncology products have yet been filed for approval in Western markets, and it remains unclear when there will be any applications. Some companies have already made inroads in less well regulated markets, although these products will require further testing to be acceptable in the US or EU. The potential biosimilar oncology market represents a particular threat for Roche, with a lot of its oncology biologics facing publicly announced biosimilar development programmes.
The biosimilar market is still very much in its infancy. A regulatory pathway now exists in Europe and the US, but in the latter case no biosimilars have yet been approved and only a handful have so far been filed, all since the summer of 2014. The situation in Europe is more advanced, with some biosimilars having now been successfully approved and launched. Although biosimilar versions of biologics indicated to treat conditions arising from therapies such as chemotherapy have been filed in both Europe and the US, these are not strictly oncology products. As yet no biosimilar versions of biologics indicated to treat various forms of cancer have been either filed or approved.

BMI View: Dementia is a growing problem with an unmet medical need, but further funding and research is needed. Governments will pay this issue increasing attention; incentives will be a way to counteract the specific challenges faced by pharmaceutical companies.
Britain is to expand its efforts to combat dementia over the next five years, according to Prime Minister David Cameron, who has set out a new, long-term strategy focused on boosting research, improving care and raising public awareness about the condition. The Prime Minister's Challenge on Dementia 2020 is the next phase in the country's effort to combat the condition and includes over GBP300mn (USD463.1mn) invested in UK research, a new global fund on dementia, 1mn NHS staff trained, 3mn more 'Dementia Friends', and faster assessments.
This comes shortly after Alzheimer's Research UK announced a GBP30mn (USD46.3mn) Drug Discovery Alliance, launching three flagship Drug Discovery Institutes at the University of Cambridge, University of Oxford and University College London. The Institutes will see 90 new research scientists employed in state-of-the-art facilities to fast-track the development of new treatments for Alzheimer's disease and other dementias. It also comes after the World Innovation Summit for Health (WISH) published a report set to tackle the global rise in dementia and identify triggers for treatment, care and funding.
An Unmet Medical Need With Growing Numbers And Cost Of Care
Types of dementia include Alzheimer's disease, which accounts for 50-70% of all cases, vascular dementia, and less common forms such as frontotemporal dementia and Parkinson's disease dementia. As yet there is no cure for any dementia due to neurodegeneration. Treatments may delay the progression of symptoms for a short time but do not address the underlying cause of the disease. Finding a cure is a major challenge because it is believed that by the time symptoms appear, significant neuronal loss has already occurred, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis. Indeed, there is currently a focus on mild Alzheimer's disease, with it thought that drugs' efficacy could be improved by giving them earlier in the course of the disease.
Dementia is a growing problem. In ten years it is expected there will be 1mn people living with dementia in the UK. In 2013, approximately 44mn people around the globe were living with some form of dementia. This number is projected to almost double every 20 years, to 76mn in 2030 and to 135mn by 2050, according to Alzheimer's Disease International's 2013 World Alzheimer's Report. Meanwhile, the cost to healthcare is huge, with dementia now one of the greatest pressures on healthcare systems around the world. The cost of care reached an estimated USD604bn worldwide in 2010, equivalent to 1% of global GDP, and costs are expected to exceed USD1trn annually in the US alone by 2050.

BMI View: Further pricing regulation of medical devices will serve Colombia's health system well in the long term, given that the control
of coronary stent prices has the capacity to save upwards of USD5mn annually. Savings can be channelled into modernising the country's
healthcare infrastructure and improving inadequate staffing and hospital bed resources.
On March 5, Colombia's government will begin to regulate the price of certain medical devices within the country, including
coronary stents, cochlear implants, and orthopaedic implants, in an effort to control excessive price mark ups from manufacturers
and suppliers. BMI believes that this measure is part of governmental efforts to guarantee the sustainability of the healthcare
system. Pharmaceutical prices have been strongly regulated in recent years; the Ministry of Health and Social Protection (MinSalud,
Ministerio de Salud y Protección Social)'s extension to medical devices is a logical progression.
A pilot test to assess medical device prices in the country was launched in October 2014, focusing on the price of coronary stents.
MinSalud noted that payments for coronary stents from Fondo de Solidaridad y Garantía (FOSYGA), a public solidarity fund that
covers Colombian health expenses, amounted to COP20,000mn (USD10.7mn) in 2013, which was equivalent to the cost of the most
expensive medicine in Colombia prior to the regulation of pharmaceuticals, eculizumab.
The pilot found that in Colombia, coronary stents cost an average
of COP5,000mn (USD2,007), and an upper limit of COP6,500mn
(USD2,609) while in Canada, the price is around COP2,337mn
(USD938); COP2,466mn (USD990) in Chile; COP2,959mn (USD1,188)
in Spain; and COP2,9902mn (USD1,200) in Uruguay. On average,
this equated to around a 40% mark-up compared with other
nations.
Robust governance, transparency, public consultation and trust are
key to ensure the development of a fairer pricing regulation frame-
work for medical devices in the country. From March 5, the price
of coronary stents will be regulated to not exceed COP3,200mn
(USD1,248), representing a reduction of 36% from the current aver-
age price. This equates to a saving of approximately COP14,000mn
(USD5.6mn) annually for the Colombian health system, given the
volume of around 2,000 annual procedures requiring coronary st-
ents.

BMI View: AstraZeneca's latest addition to its respiratory portfolio will be accretive to its long-term ambitions, despite downbeat investor
sentiment. In particular, Duaklir Genuair will enable the company to fortify its market position.
Actavis and AstraZeneca have entered into a definitive agreement under which the former will divest the rights to its branded
respiratory business in the US and Canada. The initial consideration will be for USD600mn on competition and will exclude low
single-digit royalties above a pre-specified revenue threshold.
Upon the transaction's completion, AstraZeneca will own the development and commercial rights in the aforementioned territories
to Tudorza Pressair (aclidinum bromide), a twice-daily long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA) for chronic obstructive pulmonary
disease (COPD); and Daliresp (roflumilast), the only once-daily oral PDE4 inhibitor currently on the market for COPD.
Actavis will also receive an additional USD100mn from AstraZeneca, and has agreed to a multitude of contractual consents and
approvals, including certain amendments to the ongoing collaboration agreements between the two companies.
Growing US COPD Burden According to the World Health Organization (WHO), 64mn
patients are diagnosed with moderate-to-severe COPD globally
(12.7mn in the US), resulting in up to 3mn deaths annually. BMI
forecasts the burden of COPD to increase in the US from 1.64mn
to 1.74mn disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) between 2013
and 2030. Unhealthy lifestyle habits such as smoking, and an
ageing population giving way to a higher burden of chronic
diseases, continue to drive this trend. Canada will also experience
an increase from 87,897 to 93,762 DALYs over the same period,
although the burden is far less compared with the US due to the
former's lower population. Consequently, this rising burden of
disease will continue to facilitate growth of the North American
respiratory market, providing opportunities for revenue gains as
demand increases.AstraZeneca Bolsteing Respiratory Commitment
In November 2014, AstraZeneca acquired Almirall's respiratory business unit [1], which included the European commercialisation
rights to the fixed-dose LABA/LAMA Duaklir Genuair (aclidinium/formoterol). Moreover, and critical to AstraZeneca's long-term
ambitions within the respiratory setting, the company will acquire the development rights for Duaklir Genuair in the US and Canada
as part of the Actavis agreement, where it is being developed under the name LAS40464.
The emergence in the use of LABA/LAMA combination therapies has been driven by extensive clinical data that has demonstrated
their superiority in improving respiratory lung function and reducing COPD exasperations when compared with the conventional
standard use of LABA/inhaled corticosteroid, such as GlaxoSmithKline's Seretide Accuhaler (salmeterol/fluticasone), which
generated USD8.31bn in revenue in 2013.Continued on page 3...

BMI View: Further transactions will take place intended to diversify orthopaedics manufacturers' portfolios across the continuum of care.
To maintain market share and achieve growth targets in the US and other developed markets, orthopaedics manufacturers must continue
to answer the needs of the market by offering innovative, convenient, bundled offerings that serve all aspects of the operating room.
DePuy Synthes (Johnson & Johnson) has become the latest orthopaedics company to diversify its product line, in an effort to
provide expanded portfolio catering to the needs of the operating room. DePuy Synthes has acquired Olive Medical, a Sandy,
UT-based privately held provider of HD visualisation systems for minimally invasive surgery. Olive now operates as a subsidiary of
DePuy Synthes. Founded in 2009, Olive provides affordable HD MIS imaging
equipment to the operating room and physician offices. The
company has 20 employees and its visualisation technology
has been sold in 20 countries throughout the world. Olive's
portfolio enhances the DePuy Synthes Mitek Sports Medicine
arthroscopy line and will enable DePuy Synthes to enter the
arthroscopic visualisation market to serve patients with shoulder,
knee, hip, and small joint pain or injury. This will afford DePuy
Synthes an expansion of its offerings in this market segment,
which is poised for strong growth on the back of increased
demand for arthroscopic procedures and sports medicine repair
surgeries. More poignantly, Olive Medical increases DePuy Synthes' pres-
ence in the operating room, expanding the latter's suite of surgical
products and technologies, yet remaining complementary to the
company's core product lines. This is a tactic being employed by
numerous DePuy Synthes rivals, as demonstrated by the following
recent acquisitions:• Stryker's diversification into hospital and surgical equipment: CHG Hospital Beds (low-height hospital beds and accessories);
Berchtold Holding (surgical infrastructure equipment); Patient Safety Technologies (Safety Sponge system); and Mako
Surgical (robotic-assisted surgery).
• Medtronic: Covidien (substantial hospital product portfolio); NGC Medical (cardiovascular suites, operating rooms and
intensive care unit management).

BMI View: Precision medicine has the potential to create healthcare savings by ensuring the correct treatment is administered and
avoiding the treatment-resistance that is becoming increasingly commonplace. The seemingly small investment in the Precision
Medicine Initiative will create wider access to genomic data, potentially leading to increasing discoveries of treatable targets in the
oncology field, and the ability to overcome treatment-resistance mechanisms.
President Obama has unveiled details about the launch of a Precision Medicine Initiative, a new research effort to revolutionise
how to improve health and treat disease. The Initiative was launched with a USD215mn investment in the President's 2016
Budget request, and will pioneer a new model of patient-powered research that promises to accelerate biomedical discoveries
and provide clinicians with new tools, knowledge, and therapies to select which treatments will work best for which patients.
Most medical treatments have been designed for the 'average patient'. As a result of this 'one-size-fits-all' approach, treatments
can be very successful for some patients but not for others. This is changing with the emergence of precision medicine, an
approach to disease prevention and treatment that takes into account individual differences in people's genes, environments
and lifestyles. Precision medicine gives clinicians tools to better understand the complex mechanisms underlying a patient's
health, disease, or condition, and to better predict which treatments will be most effective.
Advances in precision medicine have already led to new discoveries and several new treatments that are tailored to specific
characteristics of individuals, such as a person's genetic makeup, or the genetic profile of an individual's tumour. This is leading
to a transformation in the way we can treat diseases such as cancer. Patients with breast, lung and colorectal cancers, as well as
melanomas and leukaemias, for instance, routinely undergo molecular testing as part of patient care, enabling physicians to
select treatments that improve chances of survival and reduce exposure to adverse effects.
The potential for precision medicine to improve care and speed the development of new treatments has only just begun
to be tapped. Translating initial successes to a larger scale will require a co-ordinated and sustained national effort. Through
collaborative public and private efforts, the Precision Medicine Initiative will leverage advances in genomics, emerging
methods for managing and analysing large data sets while protecting privacy, and health information technology to
accelerate biomedical discoveries. The Initiative will also engage a million or more Americans to volunteer to contribute their
health data to improve health outcomes, fuel the development of new treatments, and catalyse a new era of data-based
and more precise medical treatment.

BMI View: The US drug-eluting stent market will garner favourable upward momentum, contrary to recent years, as pricing pressures
increase. The rising burden from cardiovascular disease, enhanced public access to healthcare, and competition from new market entrants
will lure medium-term demand.
Medtronic has gained significant market share from competitors within the US drug-eluting stent (DES) market, according to data
from Bloomberg. In Q414 (calendar period ended December 31 2014), revenue from DES sales in the US exceeded USD330mn, with
Medtronic, Abbott Vascular (Abbott Laboratories) and Boston Scientific yielding an overwhelming majority share.
In Q414, Boston Scientific's DES market share declined 40bps to 35.3% compared with the prior year period, as sales decreased
3.2% to USD116.9mn. The company's previous favourable market share has suffered progressive erosion since Q411 due to product
introductions from its competitors, in particular Medtronic's Resolute Integrity and Abbott's Xience Alpine.
Abbott also saw its market share decline by 350 bps to 35.2% in
Q414 as revenue declined 15.3% to USD116.7mn compared with
Q413. This was due in part to Medtronic's market share gains as
the company generated USD97.6mn revenue, equivalent to a
14.7% increase compared with Q414. This equated to an increase
in market share from 24.6% to 29.5%. Medtronic's capacity to bulk
sell appears critical as the company continues to place downward
pressures on its competitors.
Downward Pricing Pressures To Continue
Whilst the DES market in the US has been moderately flat in
recent years with little upward momentum, BMI forecasts this to
alter, as pricing pressures continue. Since Q113, the average price
of a DES has declined 9.6% to USD1,400, according to estimates
from Bloomberg, with most companies pricing similarly. The
rising purchasing power of healthcare institutions is key to this
downward trend in price.Continued on page 3...

US Biosimilar Market Edged Closer In 2014,
Intensifying Key Debates
BMI View: The filing of the first two biosimilar applications in
the US marked a watershed moment for the emerging global
biosimilar business. Whilst the issues raised in 2014 are not
new, the two applications have created additional emphasis.
Having been on the back foot over state-level legislation,
the Generic Pharmaceutical Association looks set to regain
the initiative. The key theme to emerge in 2014 has been
education, a need that will continue far beyond 2015.
Without doubt, 2014 will be remembered as a
breakthrough year for biosimilars. In July, Sandoz
(Novartis) became the first company to test the FDA's
biosimilar regulatory approval pathway created by the
Biologics Price Competition and Innovation Act of 2009
(BPCIA). The company filed for approval of a BLA for
filgrastim, a proposed biosimilar version of Amgen's
Neupogen. Filgrastim is indicated to decrease the incidence
of infection, as manifested by febrile neutropenia, in
patients with non-myeloid malignancies receiving
myelosuppressive anticancer drugs associated with a
significant incidence of severe neutropenia with fever.
Sandoz' filgrastim has been marketed under the brand
name Zarzio in more than 40 countries outside of the
US, generating nearly 6mn patient-exposure days of
experience. Sandoz claims Zarzio is the number one
biosimilar filgrastim globally and is the leading G-CSF
in Europe with 30% volume market share. The firm
further claims to have over a 50% share of all biosimilars
approved in the markets of Canada, Europe, Japan and
Australia. Sandoz currently markets three biosimilars
outside of the US, and its biosimilars are sold in over 60
countries; they have generated over 200mn patient-
exposure days in experience.

BMI View: The HIV market is expected to grow gradually yet indefinitely as the number of new cases continues to rise. The number of deaths
from HIV is more likely to be reduced as nations focus efforts on wider antiretroviral drug coverage. ViiV Healthcare has the opportunity to
be a serious competitor for leader Gilead Sciences, yet Gilead is seeking an approval for its tenofovir alafenamide-based regimen to combat
this threat. The global HIV infected population is expected to increase from 1.23mn in 2013 to approximately 1.4mn in 2022. The combined
sales value of antiretroviral (ARV) drugs in the seven major markets including, US, Japan, UK, France, Germany, Italy and Spain, is
expected to increase from USD11.9bn in 2013 to approximately USD16.8bn in 2022. Within the market, growth will be primarily
driven by the increased use of single-dose, multi-class, once-daily combination drugs such as Gilead Sciences' Atripla (efavirenz/
emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate [TDF]) or ViiV Healthcare's Triumeq (dolutegravir/abacavir/lamivudine). In addition,
national coverage of ARV therapy in countries with the highest HIV/AIDS burdens is increasing due to government intervention as
well as the emergence of ARV generics at more affordable prices.
Market LeadersGilead, despite being a late-comer to the HIV market, has become the market leader with a wide ARV portfolio including once-
daily, combination regimens including Atripla, Stribild (elvitegravir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/TDF) and Truvada (emtricitabine/TDF).
Pfizer/GlaxoSmithKline's joint venture, ViiV Healthcare possesses the single-dose combination regimen, Triumeq as well as Tivicay
(dolutegravir), which is expected to jump to the forefront of the market, certainly to become the highest selling integrase inhibitor,
above that of competitor Isentress (raltegravir) from Merck. Gilead's Stribild is expected to overtake single-tablet combination
regimens Atripla and Truvada, forecast to increase to USD3,439.1mn in 2018 from USD1,197mn in 2014. However, ViiV's Triumeq was
approved in August 2014 which uses Tivicay as a component, it is therefore a direct threat to Stribild. Tivicay appears to have a higher
barrier to resistance than the other two integrase inhibitors, Isentress and Gilead's Viteka (elvitegravir); to date, no resistance has been
seen in people starting Tivicay as an initial regimen. Viteka is contained in Stribild, which could have a positive impact for Triumeq
sales. Other participant companies in the HIV market include Bristol-Myers Squibb, AbbVie, Janssen (Johnson & Johnson) and Merck.
In January 2015, the FDA approved BMS' Evotaz (atazanavir/cobicistat) in combination with other ARV agents for the treatment of
HIV-1 infection in adults. More importantly, in November 2014, Gilead submitted an NDA to the FDA for an investigational, once-
daily, single-tablet regimen containing elvitegravir, cobicistat, emtricitabine and tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) 10mg (E/C/F/
TAF) for the treatment of HIV-1 infection in adults. The data submitted in the NDA support the use of the regimen among adult
and adolescent treatment-naïve HIV individuals, virologically suppressed patients who switch regimens and those with renal
impairment. If approved, E/C/F/TAF would be Gilead's first single tablet regimen to contain TAF.

BMI View: Further pricing regulation of medical devices will serve Colombia's health system well in the long term, given that the control
of coronary stent prices has the capacity to save upwards of USD5mn annually. Savings can be channelled into modernising the country's
healthcare infrastructure and improving inadequate staffing and hospital bed resources.
On March 5, Colombia's government will begin to regulate the price of certain medical devices within the country, including
coronary stents, cochlear implants, and orthopaedic implants, in an effort to control excessive price mark ups from manufacturers
and suppliers. BMI believes that this measure is part of governmental efforts to guarantee the sustainability of the healthcare
system. Pharmaceutical prices have been strongly regulated in recent years; the Ministry of Health and Social Protection (MinSalud,
Ministerio de Salud y Protección Social)'s extension to medical devices is a logical progression.
A pilot test to assess medical device prices in the country was launched in October 2014, focusing on the price of coronary stents.
MinSalud noted that payments for coronary stents from Fondo de Solidaridad y Garantía (FOSYGA), a public solidarity fund that
covers Colombian health expenses, amounted to COP20,000mn (USD10.7mn) in 2013, which was equivalent to the cost of the most
expensive medicine in Colombia prior to the regulation of pharmaceuticals, eculizumab.
The pilot found that in Colombia, coronary stents cost an average
of COP5,000mn (USD2,007), and an upper limit of COP6,500mn
(USD2,609) while in Canada, the price is around COP2,337mn
(USD938); COP2,466mn (USD990) in Chile; COP2,959mn (USD1,188)
in Spain; and COP2,9902mn (USD1,200) in Uruguay. On average,
this equated to around a 40% mark-up compared with other
nations.
Robust governance, transparency, public consultation and trust are
key to ensure the development of a fairer pricing regulation frame-
work for medical devices in the country. From March 5, the price
of coronary stents will be regulated to not exceed COP3,200mn
(USD1,248), representing a reduction of 36% from the current aver-
age price. This equates to a saving of approximately COP14,000mn
(USD5.6mn) annually for the Colombian health system, given the
volume of around 2,000 annual procedures requiring coronary st-
ents.
