The 29th Pharmaceutical Association of Japan Policy Seminar" held

On March 1, 2017, the 29th Pharmaceutical Manufacturers Association of Japan (PMAJ) Policy Seminar was held at the Tokyo Conference Center, Shinagawa, under the theme of "Drug Discovery Innovation and the Future of the Pharmaceutical Industry. The pharmaceutical industry, which has achieved dramatic growth based on sustained innovation, is now at a major turning point. Innovative new drugs, which have been welcomed with open arms in the past, are now causing controversy leading to a review of the NHI drug price system. The era of simply creating a good product and having it be accepted has come to an end, and the pharmaceutical industry faces the challenge of bringing innovative new drugs to market at low cost and in a short time. The question is what is the substance of innovation? In this policy seminar, the bold use of external resources in the R&D field and organic collaboration between industry, academia, and government, including the use of clinical information, were discussed in order to promote innovation even more efficiently.
