Strong Growth in Biopharmaceutical Approvals
Applied Clinical Trials
Biotechnology is delivering substantially higher numbers of new product approvals. During the period 2000 to 2009, 65 biopharmaceutical products received US marketing approval, nearly double the number of products approved during the 1990 to 1999 period and five times the 1980 to 1989 level.

Biopharmaceutical approvals represented one-third of all new therapeutics approved by the FDA between 2000 and 2009. This is up from 7% and 14% of all new therapeutics approved by the FDA between 1980 to 1989 and 1990 to 1999 respectively. Recombinant proteins comprise the majority of new biopharmaceutical approvals at 57% of the total. Monoclonal antibody product approvals now account for 28% of all new biopharmaceutical approvals, up from only 8% of new product approvals between 1980 and 1989. Half of new biopharmaceuticals approved by the FDA during the 2000s received a priority-review rating.

Behind the Buzz: Why Clinical Research Leaders Flock to SCOPE Summit
February 7th 2025In this episode, we meet with Micah Lieberman, Executive Conference Director for SCOPE Summit (Summit for Clinical Ops Executives) at Cambridge Innovation Institute. We will dive deep into the critical role of collaboration within the clinical research ecosystem. How do we bring together diverse stakeholders—sponsors, CROs, clinical trial tech innovators, suppliers, patients, sites, advocacy organizations, investors, and non-profits—to share best practices in trial design, program planning, innovation, and clinical operations? We’ll explore why it’s vital for thought leaders to step beyond their own organizations and learn from others, exchanging ideas that drive advancements in clinical research. Additionally, we’ll discuss the pivotal role of scientific conferences like SCOPE Summit in fostering these essential connections and collaborations, helping shape the future of clinical trials. Join us as we uncover how collective wisdom and cross-industry partnerships are transforming the landscape of clinical research.
