The client saw commercial success with their current positioning but wanted to explore new indications to expand market share. What they lacked was a clear view of where real scientific potential aligned with real commercial opportunity. They needed a comprehensive review of the literature, a map of emerging therapeutic narratives, and support identifying the most credible voices in the field.
We began by creating custom scientific search strategies to run structured, iterative literature reviews focused on uncovering publications related to novel and adjunct indications. Our team applied topic analysis to identify emerging clusters of research and linked these to unmet needs and plausible mechanisms of action.
To evaluate commercial potential, we overlaid the scientific data with epidemiological prevalence and burden-of-illness insights. The result was a ranked shortlist of viable new indications, each backed by both mechanistic rationale and market potential.
We then built an opinion leader map focused on those driving the relevant scientific dialogue. Using both publication metrics and digital presence, we prioritised engagement targets based on real influence.
The client received a clear, concise scientific landscape report tailored to their business questions. It included:
The client gained a deeper understanding of the scientific and commercial whitespace around their product. Instead of guessing at the next move, they had a credible, data-backed shortlist of expansion options and a plan for validating them through future research and expert engagement.
We continued to support the client by building a live scientific monitoring board. It tracks publications and KOL activity in the shortlisted indication areas, helping their team stay ahead of new developments and refine their expansion plan over time.
