Did Nulcala get it's first prescription yet?

another blockbuster?!

 

When is launch date?

 

Well according to one analyst report I saw recently they estimated peak sales of GBP600 million, so just about a blockbuster on the $1 billion criterion.

Whether it gets there or not we will see but obviously it should bring in some serious money, even $400 million extra is not bad and is yet another product approval. I recall the days in the 2000's where getting one approval was considered great. GSK has had over 8 in the past3-4 years and it is taken for granted.

 

Yes, your comments are spot on. $400 million, $400 million there and voila, you suddenly are talking serious money. I remember some of the idiots in marketing would push back on R&D teams if a drug was not projected to make more than a billion. Many a potential blockbuster were scrapped. You are correct senior management took these number of approvals for granted and some of the best talent that produced these approvals have now left the company due to shortsighted decisions. The expected positive reaction after R&D day fell flat and stock price has declined significantly. Do we still have the talent internally to move these compounds along quickly and flawlessly or will we make mistakes/delays due to not having the best at GSK? If we get them approved can we sell them? GSK has had great sales teams in the past that could sell ice to eskimos, but what about now with 8 calls/day, forced rank ratings, etc?

 

No bonus so who is going to break your neck selling this?

 

Yea a new product Nulcala - just need 100 other new 400 million products to replace the loss of Advair. Still a one note song at GSK.

 

Actually if Nucala was a $400 million product (on the low end of predictions) then we would need around 10 to make up for Advair. We have Breo and Anoro to add to that so already part way there. 100 is just hyperbole.

 

Name a plan that will cover BREO when ADVAIR goes generic... please... name one. GSK couldn't have screwed up the ANORO launch any more than they did if they were actively trying.

 

Stop complaining, do your job, work hard, and smile.......it's as easy as that......if you can't, just quit ! See how easy life can be ?

 

Oh

 

It's great to see you understand.

 

I had a doc give a sample out - does that count?

 

Oh that was a samples of Nutella - very tastey love that stuff on toast!

 

Ha ha! Good one

 

This will be a blockbuster
