Article summary

The European Federation of Pharmaceutical Industries and Associations (EFPIA) has published its 2024 pipeline review, revealing significant progress in pharmaceutical innovation. The report indicates that the European Medicines Agency has issued 97 new market authorisations this year, including 56 new active substances. Oncology continues to dominate clinical research, accounting for 29% of trials. The review also highlights advancements in antimicrobial resistance vaccines, mRNA vaccines for cancer treatment, novel therapies for major depressive disorder and gene therapies for rare diseases. However, the report underscores the urgent need for incentives to bolster antimicrobial development, with only four innovative antimicrobials currently in the pipeline. EFPIA emphasises the importance of supportive policies and collaborative approaches to sustain Europe's health security and innovation capabilities.
