As it is widely recognized, India has been making strides in various industries such as science, technology, space, and automobiles. However, there is a critical and pressing need to prioritize and invest in research and development, as well as innovation programs, in India.
In particular, the field of drug discovery and generic pharmaceuticals in India requires attention. It’s worth noting that there are over 450 pharmaceutical companies worldwide, with the United States accounting for 40%, China for 30%, and India for only 5-6%, as per a published article. This indicates that we are currently falling behind in terms of research and innovation in this area. Despite the presence of strong research institutions like CSIR, IITs, and others, India has not yet been able to launch its own indigenous drugs. However, there is a positive development as the country is getting closer to discovering new NCEs (new chemical entities). In the past, some Indian companies have successfully developed NCEs, but the challenge lies in launching these drugs as only a few studies have progressed to phase III or beyond.
Following the discussion on the need for increased focus on drug discovery and innovation in India, Allmpus Laboratory Pvt. Ltd. has decided to launch a drug discovery program in the country. As a result, Allmpus will be starting its first CDD (new drug discovery and development) lab within the next 2-3 months. As a research and development (R&D) company, Allmpus is committed to investing in and prioritizing discovery and research programs in India.
