How Healthcare Analytics Helped a Client to Unravel Many Facets of the Oncology Drugs Segment to Successfully Launch a New Product | A Quantzig Success Story


The Business Challenge

The healthcare industry today is amidst major tectonic shifts. The ongoing regulatory changes coupled with far-reaching patient protection and affordable care act in the United States are prompting leading players to change their status quo. Besides the increasing costs of regulatory compliance, healthcare players are also facing rising research and development costs. Though the increased regulatory supervision has turned out to be a major burden. Such regulatory requirements are putting in place a solid foundation for healthcare analytics, which, in turn, can be used to drive major organizational transformations. By using this opportunity organizations can extract additional value from patient data and leverage it to create a competitive differentiation.

Though the specialty drugs market continues to exhibit a massive sales growth with the introduction of more targeted therapies, it has become increasingly challenging to monitor and understand how therapies are being utilized by physicians. This challenge is further compounded by the complexity of the oncology drugs market where treatment decision options are highly personalized to each patient’s genetic profile. Facing similar predicaments, a leading pharma company approached Quantzig to leverage its healthcare analytics expertise to successfully launch its new oncology drug.
