Trinity Annual Drug Index

Evaluating the Commercial Performance and Impact of Novel Drugs Approved in 2021

Home / Intelligence / Webinars / Trinity Annual Drug Index

White Paper & Webinar:

This report, the seventh in our Trinity Drug Index series, outlines key themes and emerging trends in the industry as we progress towards a new world of targeted and innovative products. We provide a comprehensive evaluation of the performance of novel drugs approved by the FDA in 2021, scoring each on its commercial performance, therapeutic value and R&D investment.

2021 saw 40 unique drug and biologic approvals, of which ~33% (13/40) were Oncology, followed by ~18% (7/40) being Autoimmune and 10% (4/40) being Neurology. In this report we describe the notable themes and trends within the industry and take a deeper look at a few products with outstanding performance. Though the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic was primarily felt in 2020, 2021 fared worse than 2020 and sustained an ongoing decline in the relationship between a product’s therapeutic value and its commercial output.

2021 FDA Approvals - 40 unique approvals, 33% Oncology, 18% Autoimmune and 10% Neurology
