HOW ARE NEW DRUGS
DEVELOPED?
Durhane Wong-Rieger, PhD

OVERVIEW
Examples of “innovative” and
“incremental” discoveries
What are steps from discovery
to regulatory submission?
What are likelihood of success
and cost through the process?
INCREMENTAL VERSUS BREAKTHROUGH INNOVATION
Breakthrough innovation is characterized by
first-in-class, or new therapies
 Examples include: Penicillin (first antibiotic);
Insulin (first animal insulins); Thorazine (first
anti-psychotic); first birth control pill
 “A breakthrough drug product is the first one to
be sold in Canada that treats effectively a
particular illness or address effectively a
particular indication” (PMPRB)

FOLLOW-ON (INCREMENTAL DEVELOPMENT)

Incremental Innovation is characterized by
bit-by-bit, cumulative improvement

Examples include: modern day antibiotics
(4 days, one pill/day); newer insulin therapies,
modern birth control pills, etc.
Development of follow-on drugs occurs at the
same time with that of the first-in-class
 Therapeutic value of follow-on drugs is reflected
in the percentage of priority designations,
inclusion in the clinical practice guidelines, and
coverage in major formularies
