It does that by monitoring and reporting on the development, regulation, and utilization of new drugs and biopharmaceuticals, making that information available through publications, symposia, workshops, and public forums. Tufts CSDD developed the first, independent assessment and subsequent updates of the cost of developing a new prescription medicine, which is widely referenced by the U.S. Congress, drug developers, regulators, and analysts worldwide. Tufts CSDD also developed the first assessment of the state of the investigator landscape in the U.S. Recently it documented the therapeutic impact of incremental innovation, sometimes referred to as me-too drug development, and the dramatic decline in effective market life for first-in-class pharmaceutical products. Earlier this month, Tufts CSDD released its annual Outlook report, which noted that the continued success of drug developers will depend on how well they partner with other firms.
