EvaluatePharma®’s USA Sales,
Volume and Pricing Intelligence
A clear picture of drug pricing in key markets, trends and competitor pricing is essential to our
clients in the Pharma and Biotech sector. We have heard from many of our clients that too much
of their time is currently spent on data collation and not enough time on market analysis and
strategic decision-making. They require an efficient way to analyse what is driving USA sales.
At Evaluate, our aim is to bring transparency to pricing and we focused our efforts initially
on the largest and most influential market, the USA. Our team of experienced analysts started
the development of an integrated, single source for USA sales, volume and pricing information.
We defined a methodology to provide insights into the annual cost per patient for the top selling
drugs as well as number of patients treated. The analysis combines USA government data sources
and is fully transparent as to the specific sources and the methodology of our calculations.
A comprehensive methodology document is available to all Evaluate’s subscribers.
The clients we collaborated with to develop the pricing insights told us that they
particularly valued:
ƒƒ A more efficient way to conduct pricing analysis
ƒƒ Transparency as to sources used to triangulate the analysis
ƒƒ Ability to calculate annual cost and volume per patient
ƒƒ Credible insights into competitor’s sales dynamics
ƒƒ Insights with regard to rebates and discounts
ƒƒ Retail level drug prices
Key features of this new intelligence include:
ƒƒ A single, trusted source for USA Sales, Volume and Pricing intelligence
ƒƒ Comprehensive prescription drug pricing in the USA
- Includes primary care medications, injectable biotechnology products and vaccines
- Sources: Retail Rx unit / pack prices (Medicaid), J-Code, NADAC, Federal Contract
ƒƒ E xclusive cost per patient and number of patients treated calculations for top-selling USA Drugs including

EvaluatePharma® Foreword:
Move to Higher Priced Drugs Within the Top 100 Selling Drugs in the USA
Over the last five years a fundamental shift in spending trends towards high-priced medicines,
which treat substantially smaller patient populations, has been underway in the US market.
Based on an analysis of the Top 100 selling drugs in the USA we have found that:
ƒƒ T he median revenue per patient of the Top 100 drugs has increased from $1,260 in 2010
to $9,400 in 2014, representing an seven-fold increase (see page: 7).
ƒƒ T he median patient population size served by a Top 100 drug in 2014 is 146,000, down from
690,000 in 2010.
ƒƒ T here are now seven treatments priced in excess of $100,000 per patient per year in 2014,
versus four in 2010.
(In this report the Top 100 drugs are based on net manufacturing sales disclosed by companies and we define a drug selling
for greater than the median price (>$10,000) of the Top 100 as high-priced.)
Why the Shift?
The changes in spending are complex, but we have identified a number of factors that could have
contributed to the increase in launch prices and drug price inflation, including:
ƒƒ Successful R&D innovation
ƒƒ Drug pricing models that impact launch price
ƒƒ Advancing patient outcome
ƒƒ Removing costs from healthcare
ƒƒ Improving patient economic productivity
ƒƒ Private and public ability to pay
An example of these factors in action is Sovaldi, the first of the so called ‘budget-busting’ drugs. The
hepatitis C treatment’s $84,000 list price has been defended because it offers a step-change advance in
patient outcomes, removes costs from healthcare and improves patient economic productivity.
The US system of free market pricing also allows a correlation between higher drug prices and new
treatments which offer real innovation over current treatments. Thus, Sovaldi was able to charge more
than Incivek (Vertex) and Victrelis (Merck), the first advancements in hepatitis C treatment, whose
commercial edge lasted for only two and a half years.
The report also considers other factors that might be influencing drug pricing and changes in patient
population size, these are explored below.

Shift in Focus - Tax and Regulatory System Biased Towards Orphan Drug/Smaller Patient
Population Drugs
Over the past 15 years FDA requirements for the approval of new drugs have become more
stringent, particularly for primary care products. This has pushed up primary care clinical trial sizes
and R&D costs. In addition, the unintended extended patent life/softer patent erosion available to
biologicals and the tax advantages of the Orphan Drug Act have skewed the R&D incentives
towards investment in non-primary care diseases with smaller patient population sizes. Our report
shows that this has increased the number of new product launches of higher-price/small-population
drugs.
ƒƒ In 2010 the number of Top 100 drugs treating 1-100,000 patients was 23. In 2014 the number
had jumped to 41.
ƒƒ C
orrespondingly, the number of Top 100 drugs treating 500,000 plus patients had fallen
from 55 to 35.

Foreword
While some of the decline in top selling drugs treating large patient populations may have been due
to products such as Lipitor, Plavix and Actos losing patent protection, their places have been taken
by biologic drugs, which can command much higher median pricing and have so far enjoyed little or
no generic competition (see page 9).
The current lack of biosimilars means that successful biologicals have not only entered the Top 100,
but have not dropped out of it, despite some experiencing patent expiry, e.g. Epogen, originally
launched in 1989, has yet to experience biosimilar competition.
Drug Price Inflation and Monopoly Pricing
The report also shows that companies have aimed to maximise revenues, not only for new products but
for existing ones. We found that 19 drugs in the Top 100 have moved up a price bracket in the last four
years (see page: 7). E.g., nine products have gone from costing less than a $1,000 in 2010 to being priced
in the $1,000 to $5,000 bracket in 2014.
The US phenomenon of drug price inflation - where prices increase after initial launch - is in direct
opposition to Japan where the government reimbursement system reduces the price of successful products
which beat initial sales expectations at launch. US drug price inflation could be due to a number of factors:
ƒƒ L ack of Competition - The biggest brake to the price inflation of a first-to-market drug is the entry of
“me-too” or marginally differentiated products to treat the same disease providing additional competition. In
reviewing the Top 100 selling drugs in 2014 the cohort is biased to successful products, so it is not surprising
certain products move up a price bracket. Even when a “me-too” drug enters the market, the list price of the
first-to-market drug tends not to drop but off-invoice discounts start to occur to private payers.
ƒƒ D
rug Profile – Over the life of a product, a better understanding of the drug’s benefits versus the competition
tends to emerge, which could justify price increases.
ƒƒ P
atient Switching - Companies increasing the price of mature products, knowing that physicians will be
reluctant to switch to less expensive alternatives, when patients are responding well to the drug.
Budget-Busters Versus High-Priced Imitators
We define a budget-busting drug as a drug that offers a step-change in patient outcome and/or
removes costs from other parts of the health system, normally in a non-rare disease population size
(>200,000 patients in USA). Budget-busters lead to payers having to revisit budget size and
allocations to pay for innovative products.
Copyright © 2014 Evaluate Ltd. All rights reserved.
However, it’s important to be aware of high-priced drugs which do not offer a step-change in patient
outcomes, and therefore do not justify a high-price. Zaltrap, initially priced highly was judged by the
Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center to offer little cost/ benefit over Avastin, the current colorectal
cancer treatment. Sanofi responded by halving the US price.
The report also shows that a number of drugs such as Roche’s cancer products, Herceptin and Rituxan,
were able to command prices well in excess of the other top 20 biggest selling cancer products in 2014
despite competing products on the market.
Celgene’s Revlimid had the highest price premium within the Top 20 selling cancer drugs, achieving
$164,859 per patient and treating an estimated 17,380 patients in 2014 (see page 13).
However, with an increasing number of potential “budget-busters” on the horizon, these prices might
not be sustainable as payers could start to get even tougher on new and currently marketed products
that are poorly differentiated.

Foreword
Future of High Drug Pricing in Top 100
ƒƒ T he shift to high-priced medicines will increase friction between payers and companies. However, as long
as the economic basis of the high price is sound (namely improved patient outcomes, reduced healthcare costs,
or improved patient economic activity versus current treatments) budget-busters will - for now - get a slice of
the USA market. The losers will be poorly-differentiated products which get dropped from reimbursement
lists. This is how the market should operate and will actively encourage R&D spend to be allocated to
innovative products.
ƒƒ T he biggest concern is that with government drug spend approaching 43% of the USA market by 2017, up
from 24% in 2005, the system lacks enough automatic discounts off the private price, and safeguards against
drug price rises from companies, to be sustainable. This is particularly an issue for Medicare Part B and Part D
programs. The expansion of Medicare (2005+) and Medicaid (2014+) enrolment has incrementally expanded
the USA drug market, so any discounts off private drug prices will act only to moderate growth. Thus the call
for reform will grow stronger.
ƒƒ T he adoption of biosimilars appears crucial to moderate overall pharmaceutical sales growth in both the private
and public sector, but also to free up funds to pay for the innovation of tomorrow.
ƒƒ L aunch prices are likely to be determined more and more by competitive profile of the product rather than R&D
spend. Gilead paid $11.2 billion for Pharmasset because of the future commercial profile of Sovaldi at the time
of acquisition, not because Pharmasset had spent $272 million on R&D to get the compound into late-stage
phase III.
Conclusion
There appears to be little let up on the budgets of both government and private payers in the USA
seeking access to innovative drugs.
With the Affordable Care Act (ACA) set to add nine million additional Americans in 2014 to Medicaid
budgets and the increasing numbers of Medicare enrolments due to the aging baby-boomer generation,
the US government is already forecasting Medicare/Medicaid spend to account for 43% of the entire
USA prescription drug market by 2017, up from 24% in 2005.
The government has also raised its forecast for both Medicaid and Medicare prescription drug spend
by $10bn to $210.7bn in August 2014, with Sovaldi alone adding over $1bn to the Medicaid drug bill
in 2014. While efforts have been made to reduce Medicaid spend on generic drugs (see page 16) the
current system looks to be unsustainable.

To rein in costs or justify the prices private payers are expected to pay for innovation, private payers
could organise to conduct drug cost/benefit analyses to call out the effectiveness of high-priced drugs.
And while the 2003 Medicare Act explicitly stops Medicare from negotiating drug prices, a prohibition
that failed to get overturned in the Senate in 2007, the government-run health plan for seniors could
put pressure on its health plan providers to negotiate more aggressively.
As such the increasing rumblings of discontent from both government and private payers mean that
pharma companies need to be providing real innovation to justify the prices of their products and
closely work with the hand that feeds their growth.

Top 100 USA Drugs: Revenue per Patient per Year Analysis 2010 & 2014
Median Annual Drug Revenue of Top 100 Drugs Balloons to $9,396 in 2014, from $1,258 in 2010
Seven Drugs in Top 100 Cost more than $100,000 per Year
EvaluatePharma® finds that the median revenue per patient per year (annual drug cost net of discounts and adjusted for patient
compliance) within the top 100 selling products, has increased from $1,258 in 2010 to $9,396 in 2014. The shift to higher cost drugs
reflects industry product launches of innovative drugs aimed at smaller patient population sizes (see page 8), high priced biologicals not
being impacted by patent competition, but also drug companies increasing prices to maximise revenues. Further analysis reveals that 19
drugs, in both the 2010 & 2014 Top 100 lists, moved up a pricing band. There are now seven drugs in the Top 100 in 2014 which cost in
excess of $100,000, up from four drugs in 2010. In 2010, drugs selling for less than $1,000 was the largest component of the Top 100 at
40 (40% of the Top 100); in 2014, that number fell to 19 (19%).

USA Top 100 Drugs Shifts to Higher Price, Smaller Patient Groups
EvaluatePharma® finds that the median number of USA patients treated by a Top 100 product, has fallen from 689,604 to 146,252 per
drug. The number of drugs within the Top 100 that treat fewer than 100,000 patients annually has increased from 23 (23% of the Top
100) in 2010, to 41 (41%) drugs in 2014. The number of drugs serving groups of over 500,000 patients has decreased from 55 (55%) to
35 (35%) in 2014.
A number of factors have contributed to this shift to higher-priced, lower patient-population groups: the innovation potential of primary
care has somewhat matured; and, companies have switched strategic focus and are increasingly innovating in biologicals, orphan
diseases, cancer, and specialist markets. In addition the absence of patent competition on biologicals means established biologicals do
not drop off the list.

Top 100 USA Drugs in 2014: Revenue per Patient vs. No. of Patients Treated
USA Top 100 Drug Cost (Revenue per Patient) is Strongly Correlated to Patient Size
EvaluatePharma® finds the annual revenues per patient of a Top 100 USA drug is strongly correlated (R2 = 0.92) to the number of
patients it treats. This surprisingly strong correlation is likely due to the fact that only a subset of patients taking primary care drugs
require hospitalization and, in general, such drugs do not offer the same improvement in patient outcomes than drugs used to treat
smaller patient population groups. Gilead's Sovaldi is an outlier, with a list price of $84k an estimated revenue per patient of $56k in
2014. The predicted revenue per patient based on the regression is $8,726 for a product treating 135,182 patients. The innovation
Sovaldi offers over current treatments (patient outcomes, costs out of healthcare, patients improved economic activity) reflects this
price premium. We have analyzed three patient population subgroups over the next three pages.

Note: In theory the products with the highest sales should represent the best patient outcome, cost out of healthcare and
improved patient economic activity relative to the competition, for the indications sales are achieved in.
Within the USA market the price can rise or fall (off-invoice discounting) post approval, which in a free market system is to be
expected. A price rise should signify an enhanced understanding of the drug profile vs. the competition, but may also be the
company taking advantage of the risk of switching patients or entrenched prescribing habits.
