Instead of doing research on a total of 55 diseases, it now will work on 27.
The changes, announced to the staff on Tuesday and effective immediately, are part of the 'Project Impact' that Wyeth announced in January, a restructuring meant to cut about 10 percent of its then-50,000 jobs. The shift won't entail eliminating even more jobs, but will mean some research scientists will have to move to new areas geographically or in research specialty or leave Wyeth.
The six areas of focus now are vaccines; cancer; inflammatory disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis and severe asthma; metabolic conditions including diabetes and obesity; musculoskeletal disorders such as arthritis and spinal fractures; and neuroscience, including treatments for Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, depression, schizophrenia and chronic pain.
'We believe that we need more depth within these areas and more broadening within a focused disease area to ... identify unique targets that we can develop drugs for,' said Loh, who heads Wyeth's clinical drug research in all areas except women's health and neuroscience
