Boehringer says R&D pipeline is the best in its long history

Boehringer Ingelheim says it is on track to launch 25 new treatments in its human pharma division onto the market between now and 2030, fuelled by an R&D pipeline that it says is the best in its 139-year history.

The company expects to start around 10 new phase 2 and 3 trials within the next 12 to 18 months, supported by an R&D spend that reached €5.8 billion last year, a rise of 14% and accounting for 22.5% of net sales.
