Emerging Market for Clinical Trials in Argentina

Rising Financial and Regulatory Pressures on Western Pharma Will Continue to Drive the Clinical Trial Market Growth in Argentina
London, London, United Kingdom (prbd.net) 09/06/2011
The pharmaceutical industries of the US and Europe have been facing severe financial constraints
over the past few years, and these are expected to worsen in the coming years. With constraints
such as the cost of introducing an NME increasing to reach more than $3 billion in 2008, tightening
regulatory pressures resulting in fewer FDA approvals, blockbuster drugs worth more than $100
billion set to expire by 2014 and the drying pipelines of the pharmaceutical industry, pressures are
mounting on pharmaceutical companies to cut costs, especially the big ones. These pressures are
expected to drive these companies towards low-cost countries such as Argentina to perform their
R&D activities, one of their major expenses.

Argentina has developed significant capabilities in clinical trials over the last decade, along with
certain capabilities especially for diabetes indication. Argentina is able to provide significant cost
savings in the range of 50–60% for clinical trials. With discovery research occupying close to onethird
of the R&D expenditure for the western pharmaceutical industry, outsourcing to low-cost
countries is logical.

The figure above depicts the population of Argentina according to age groups from 1980 to 2050.
As evident from the figure, Argentina’s population will experience a dramatic shift in its age
structure. In 2030 its total population is expected to be above 50 million, with 14.5 million of its
people above the age of 50. In 2050, it is estimated that this number will rise to nearly 19.5 million.
This means that there will be a rise in chronic diseases, which generally affect this population age
group.
