The PSVA Framework: Four ways to protect your brand after LOE

When a brand loses exclusivity, the challenge is not just to defend but to evolve.

As generics and biosimilars enter the market, many teams focus on what they stand to lose. The most effective LOE plans, however, are built around a different question: what can still be gained?

In The Loss of Exclusivity Planning Course for Pharma, Dr Neal Hansen and James Kettlewell discuss the PSVA Framework, developed from their years of real-world LOE experience. The framework organises late-lifecycle strategy into four interconnected areas: Product, Solution, Value, and Asset optimisation. Together, these four dimensions give teams a practical structure for identifying and acting on the opportunities that remain, even in a highly competitive, post-LOE environment.
 

 

Product Optimisation


Reinforce differentiation in brand presentation that delivers meaningful benefits to key stakeholders. 

How can we differentiate the brand and address unmet patient needs in a world where our clinical profile is no longer unique?
 

Solution Optimisation


Deliver complementary programmes alongside the brand that build value with key stakeholders. 

How can we add value for key stakeholders through support services and support differentiated brand value?
 

Value Optimisation


Generate, maintain, and communicate a compelling value proposition for key decision makers. 

How can we adapt, reinforce, and articulate the value of the brand with stakeholders in the context of the evolved environment?
 

Asset Optimisation


Maximise full asset potential through additional commercial forms. 

How can we complement the brand, not compete with it, through additional commercial forms or through new consumer channels?
