Novartis (A): Reimagining Medicine
內容大綱
This case unfolds around the first-ever approved personalized cancer treatment, how Novartis wrapped it into a new business model design, and how Novartis scaled it. Novartis - one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in the world - is, among other ventures, discovering, developing, and marketing patent-protected prescription medicines, as well as addressing unmet medical needs and diseases for which no effective treatments or cures exist. In late 2011, Novartis executives became aware of a revolutionary treatment technology developed by researchers at the University of Pennsylvania (UPenn). This technology was designed as a one-time, personalized drug to cure certain types of cancers such as lymphomas and leukemia. Section Chief of Cellular Therapy and Transplant at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia Stephan A. Grupp, MD, Ph.D. commented on the innovation as follows: "I've been an oncologist for 20 years, and I have never, ever seen anything like this." After approaching UPenn scientists, Novartis decided to develop and commercialize this technology as the company possessed the relevant capabilities. This case series then explores the introduction and scaling of this new treatment over three parts. Case A describes the various challenges Joe Jimenez, the then CEO of Novartis, faced during the launch of the new treatment in 2016. Case B (separate) focuses on the persistent problems with drug manufacturing and scaling this part of the business model design after its launch in 2017. Lastly, case C (separate) examines how Novartis solved the persistent problems and envisioned the future in this new, inspiring area of medicine.
