Leveraging Novel Therapeutics and Diagnostic Assays
Immunotherapy is far from a novel concept, and its history is intriguing. It all began in 1891 when Dr William B Coley attempted to creatively harness the patient’s immune system. William achieved durable complete remission in several types of malignancies to include sarcoma, lymphoma, and testicular carcinoma by injecting mixtures of live and attenuated bacteria into patients’ tumours. Needless to say, we have come a long way.

Working Towards a Standardised Identification Solution

PCI Pharma Services

The security of the pharmaceutical supply chain is an issue of growing concern, with recent reports addressing its vulnerability to counterfeiting. The complexity of the European supply chain is one of the key factors of this counterfeiting pandemic, with millions of medicine packs being moved around the EU, annually. Aside from this, fragmentation has resulted in decreased transparency in the supply chain and increased difficulties to track and trace medicines, leading to significant threat from counterfeiting. As a key source of income for the European economy, it is essential that the supply chain remains safe and free of counterfeits. A significant stumbling block within the industry remains to be the lack of a unified, single‐source pan‐European or indeed global database where scanned bar codes on drug packaging can be verified at point of dispense. At some point in the future the pharmaceutical industry, regulatory bodies, clinicians and retailers will need to join forces to overcome this.
