Each month, Outsourced Pharma works in conjunction with PharmSource, part of GlobalData, to present its “Contract Manufacturing: Opportunities and Threats (CMOT) Report” to our readers. The report identifies CDMOs that might be impacted by key events affecting their clients, including company acquisitions, product acquisitions and licenses, product approvals, late clinical product terminations, and FDA rejections.
