Risk Sharing and Innovative Contracting with CROs
Published on February 2011
Report Summary
CROs are seeking greater upside from royalties and other opportunities to participate in profits. Meanwhile, drug makers have an
interest in reducing upfront drug development costs, and reducing the financial risks of product failure.
More sponsors and CROs are entering into innovative relationships where risk is shared more fully between the two companies, while
profits from successful projects are also shared. Key types of agreements include preferred vendors, functional service providers
(FSPs), risk sharers, alliance partners, drug licensors, joint venture partners and contract research alliance partners.
Scope of this research
' Identify the benefits and challenges of risk sharing & innovative contracting agreements and structure more successful deals.

Research and analysis highlights
Risk sharing/innovative contracting agreements are becoming more popular, although many companies are not yet able to structure
effective relationships. Successful agreements can be extremely beneficial for both drug developers and CROs, however,
unsuccessful relationships can significantly impact either or both companies' businesses.

contracting agreements is expected to continue to expand strongly, although some types of relationships will be utilized more than
others.
Risk sharing/innovative contracting agreements with offshore CROs will experience particularly strong growth as the drug
development industries in China and India expand.
