How does the world's 7th largest pharma company plan to grow its pharmaceutical revenues?

For competitors and investors alike this is a key question, and one that must be considered in the light of two recent and significant developments.

The acquisition by Johnson & Johnson of Cougar Biotechnology for almost US$1 billion in May 2009 spearheads a move by the company to become a top 5 player in the fast-growing oncology sector - a therapy area relatively new to J&J.

An audacious move to secure the non-US distribution rights to Remicade and Simponi from Schering-Plough; a move triggered by the proposed merger of Schering-Plough with Merck & Co. If successful, this would add significant revenues to J&J's coffers at a stroke.

The focus on novel oncology product development is timely. Although J&J can boast 9 blockbusters in its product line-up, it is feeling the pressure of generic competition on Risperdal and Topamax; a situation that will not be improved by the loss of patent protection for Levaquin and Remicade in the medium term.
