CHAPEL HILL, N.C., Oct. 28 -- The bio-pharmaceutical marketplace – and the Oncology therapeutic area in particular – continues to evolve as new medicines and technologies create valuable market opportunities. It's in this competitive and challenging environment that organizations with new Oncology products are scrutinizing their strategies and tactics to support market education.

Commercial executives in the Oncology therapeutic area make clinical and compound data disclosures earlier than other therapeutic areas, according to new research from Best Practices, LLC. For instance, 40 percent of commercial Oncology leaders said they communicate mechanism of action data at pre-clinical whereas only 29 percent of the total study participants said they communicate MOA at that time, according to the study.
