Resumo: The authors present a model with factors that influence research and development decisions by the pharmaceutical industry: risk of disease transmission and possibility of control; case-fatality and the presence of cure or treatments; income; number of persons who demand the medicine; and opportunity costs for the company. Companies tend to invest in markets with inelastic demand (highly contagious diseases with no possibility of controlling transmission and/or very lethal diseases without treatment) and/or where there is a large population or high per capita income. Companies tend not to invest in markets where marginal costs exceed marginal income, particularly when costs increase permanently as a consequence of rising opportunity costs generated by foregoing profit in other markets. In such cases, policies to subsidize R&D are not effective, and policies must be orientated towards strengthening basic and applied research by public institutions.

Los factores son el riesgo de contagio y la posibilidad de controlarlo; la letalidad y la presencia de curas o tratamientos; el ingreso; el número de personas que demandan y los costos de oportunidad de la empresa. Las empresas invertirán en mercados con demandas más inelásticas (enfermedades muy contagiosas sin posibilidad de controlar la transmisión y/o muy letales sin curas o tratamientos) y/o donde los demandantes tienen elevados ingresos y/o son numerosos. No invertirá en mercados donde sus costos marginales son superiores a sus ingresos marginales, particularmente cuando sus costos incrementan permanentemente como consecuencia del aumento del costo de oportunidad generado por lo que dejaría de ganar en otros mercados. Para estos casos, las políticas de subsidio de la I+D no son efectivas, por lo tanto, éstas deben orientarse al fortalecimiento de las investigaciones, tanto básica como aplicada, realizadas por las instituciones públicas o sin fines de lucro.Reports in Public HealthCadernos de Saúde Pública2008-10-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersiontext/htmlapplication/pdfhttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/3540Reports in Public Health; Vol. 24 No. 10 (2008): OctoberCadernos de Saúde Pública; v. 24 n. 10 (2008): Outubro1678-44640102-311Xreponame:Cadernos de Saúde Públicainstname:Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)instacron:FIOCRUZspahttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/3540/7169https://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/3540/7170Curcio, Pasqualina Curcioinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2024-03-06T15:27:40Zoai:ojs.teste-cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br:article/3540Revistahttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csphttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/oaicadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br||cadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br1678-44640102-311Xopendoar:2024-03-06T13:04:04.364977Cadernos de Saúde Pública - Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)true
