Problem Statement
A mid-sized pharmaceutical company aimed to expand its asset portfolio by entering the Atrial Fibrillation market, which presents significant unmet medical needs despite the availability of current therapies.
The company needed a clear, data-driven process to:
• Navigate the crowded and competitive landscape.
• Prioritize assets for in-licensing opportunities.
• Focus on those that demonstrated clinical robustness, commercial potential, and regulatory feasibility.
Without such analysis, the client risked making high-stakes investment decisions without strategic clarity.

Our Methodology
DelveInsight deployed a comprehensive six-step evaluation framework that integrated clinical, commercial, regulatory, and stakeholder insights.
1. Technology Assessment
We evaluated the scientific foundation and innovation potential of assets, focusing on:
• Mechanisms of action (MOAs).
• Differentiation from existing and pipeline therapies.
• Feasibility for Phase II development.
This helped identify assets with strong novelty and technical robustness, ensuring a foundation for differentiation in the Atrial Fibrillation market.

2. Company Assessment
DelveInsight analyzed the originating companies, considering:
• Reputation and proven track record in drug development.
• Strategic vision alignment with the client's long-term objectives.
• Financial stability and ability to sustain development.
• Partnership potential and willingness to collaborate.
This provided confidence in compatibility and reliability of potential partners.

3. Commercial Assessment
We assessed the market viability of assets by analyzing:
• Atrial Fibrillation market size and forecast up to 2032 across the 7MM (US, EU4, UK, Japan).
• Competitor landscape, gaps, and unmet needs.
• Pricing and reimbursement potential.
• Market access opportunities in client's target geographies.
This ensured that shortlisted assets were not just scientifically promising, but commercially sound.

4. Clinical Assessment
A deep dive into clinical progress was conducted, evaluating:
• Efficacy from early-phase trials.
• Safety and tolerability.
• Scalability and development feasibility.
• Regulatory milestones and ongoing interactions with authorities.
This provided clarity on the likelihood of successful progression into later-stage development.

5. Primary Assessment
We captured first-hand insights through:
• Key Opinion Leader (KOL) interviews.
• Healthcare provider surveys.
• Patient feedback on current treatments and expectations.
This enriched the analysis with real-world perspectives, ensuring asset selection aligned with patient needs and clinical acceptance.

6. Matrix Analysis
Finally, all data was synthesized into a weighted scoring model, ranking assets on:
• Strategic fit.
• Clinical viability.
• Market potential.
• Development feasibility.
The visual matrix framework enabled the client to identify assets in the "TARGET quadrant" - high-priority candidates with both scientific and commercial strength.
