摘要(中文)

以開放式創新觀點,本研究分析臺灣生技公司的新藥開發模式。臺灣生技公司從國外引進技術後,進行臨床前期試驗與臨床試驗,再授權技術,如基亞生技公司、寶齡富錦公司。本研究分析擁有內部資源較豐富的基亞生技公司如何結合外部資源來從事新藥開發,與分析內部資源有限的寶齡富錦公司如何引進大量外部資源以從事新藥開發。一方面,本研究希望分析臺灣生技公司從技術引進至新藥開發的創新模式;另一方面,探索臺灣生技公司技術移轉至國際製藥公司之獲利模式與在全球生技產業價值鏈之定位。研究結果指出,基亞生技與寶齡富錦都是著眼於亞洲市場的利基藥品。基亞生技著重抗肝癌新藥;寶齡富錦則著重腎臟疾病新藥。兩者採用不同的開放式創新模式,基亞生技利用自身醫界人脈,結合台灣在地的醫療資源,成功地在臨床試驗第二期後授權給國際大藥廠,並在臨床試驗第三期進行共同「合作」開發。相對地,寶齡富錦公司經營者利用自身在北美的人脈,有效地利用北美的臨床「委外」模式,進行臨床試驗並成功地在臨床第二期試驗後授權給國際大藥廠。這兩個對比案例提供開放式創新的新觀點,也指出企業未來對外整合資源的新作法。

摘要(英文)

This paper aims to analyze new drug development projects of the Taiwanese biotechnology companies from the perspective of open innovation. Taiwanese biotechnology companies, such as Medigen Biotechnology Company and Panion & BF Biotechnology Company, transfer the foreign technologies and conduct the preclinical trials and clinical trials, and make a profit after licensing out the technologies. This study investigates how Medigen which has rich internal resources leverages external resources to develop the new drug, and how Panion & BF which has less internal resources leverages huge external resources to develop the new drug. Two important issues are addressed in this study: how Taiwanese biotechnology companies can leverage external resources and eventually make a profit by licensing out technologies to international pharmaceutical companies; and how Taiwanese biotechnology companies re-position themselves in the global value chain of biotechnology industry. Research results indicate that although both companies concentrate on the niche markets in Asia, they focus on different product markets, with Medigen focusing on liver cancer drug market and Panion & BF focusing on kidney disease one. Additionally, both companies adopt open innovation as a main business model, but they leverage external resources and network in different ways. Medigen successfully licenses out to a foreign pharmaceutical company after clinical trials by relying on the network of its CEO as a medical doctor and by forming international joint development team for its clinical trials. In contrast, Panion & BF successfully licenses out to an international pharmaceutical company by relying on outsourcing contract clinical/ research organization (CRO) through its networks in North America.

政策與管理意涵

由於新藥開發整個流程的資金投入相當龐大,一般來說,台灣從事新藥開 發的生技公司,無法完成整個新藥開發的流程而至產品上市。但台灣從事新藥 開發的生技公司,確實在全球新藥開發的價值鏈中扮演了一些重要的角色。在 藥物開發階段,只有少數的公司如台醫生技公司採取自行研發的方式,其他公 司則都從國外大學或藥廠技術授權引進技術。在成功地完成某階段的臨床試驗 後,某些公司會將技術授權出去而獲利。這些利潤不僅讓公司可以繼續營運下 去,其所帶來的價值往往超過公司原來投入的數十倍、甚至是數百倍之多。也 因為大多數的台灣生技公司都不具走完新藥開發全部流程的資源,這種完成階 段性臨床試驗後即進行授權而獲利的模式,被很多公司認為是相當合宜的。 本研究提供有關台灣生技公司以開放式創新從事新藥開發並成功技術移 轉的參考模式。台灣生技公司的技術,大多源自於國外的知名大學或國際大藥 廠。在從國外引進技術之後,生技公司會先藉由自身的研發能力進行研發,並 在執行臨床試驗第二期後授權出去給知名國際大藥廠,由國際大藥廠進行第三 期臨床試驗與產品上市。如基亞生技公司從澳洲普基公司技術授權引進後,在 執行完臨床試驗第二期後將產品賣給澳洲普基公司。該公司後來回來找基亞生 技共同進行臨床試驗第三期的合作開發。而寶齡富錦公司則是從美國密西根大 學授權引進技術,在執行完臨床試驗第二期後將產品技術授權給美國Keryx 藥廠。因此,本研究提供有關台灣生技公司與國際大藥廠之開放式創新合作的 模式。
