Given the concepts and frameworks as defined by Dolan and Gourville in their accumulated research on pricing, it is clear the Angiomax product will be able to sustain a significantly higher price over time. The overall premise of The Medicines Company is based on taking products that have not succeeded in the market, and re-introducing them, often at a higher price. This strategy works out exceptionally well as it often yields significantly higher gross margins. Heparin was most likely priced to re-cover Research & Development (R&D) expenses in addition to ensuring there was just enough gross margin for the distribution channel to take the product on. This approach to pricing the product ensured it would be seen as a commodity, as the accumulated research of Dolan and Gourville confirm. While there are a multiplicity of factors behind a pharmaceutical drug succeeding or failing, the most potent of all differentiators is price and the message it sends into the market. Based on the need to significantly differentiate Angiomax from Heparin at a quality level, the price will need to be higher. In addition, there are the costs associated with the re-marketing, re-positioning and support of the product's new messaging, which need to be covered with the new pricing model. Yet at the most fundamental level the need exists for Angiomax to occupy a more differentiated and high-value segment of the overall market. It will also be critical to attain a price/value relationship in the product to ensure tis success as well. Due to all of these factors, its price will be higher than Heparin by significant amount.
