Scrip spotlights the action around five key big pharma products in India. We track the gains made by Rybelsus and Keytruda, the wave of Januvia and Ibrance generics and on-market and court action for blockbuster Entresto.

Pfizer’s Ibrance is set to lose exclusivity in the US only by 2027, but the Indian market is buzzing with activity as generics including from top-ranked drug maker Sun Pharma vie for a share of the pie. Competing CDK4/6 inhibitors are already available but can cut-price palbociclib versions alter market dynamics?

Patent pertaining to Novartis’s Entresto re-instated for now in India after a two-judge bench stays a previous order that set aside the grant of the patent. Will that put Indian firms that launched generic versions of the heart failure therapy at risk of infringement in the interim?

Court sets aside order pertaining to patent for Novartis’s Entresto in India, setting the stage for high-octane generic competition that potentially includes frontline domestic companies. If the Swiss firm appeals, market dynamics may be impacted but prices of same-composition second brands of the heart-failure therapy are already headed southwards.
