Keeping cheap, essential chemotherapy drugs like cisplatin available; shortages in 2023 forced rationing in US hospitals.
Sterile injectable generics (platinums, 5-FU, methotrexate) have thin margins and few manufacturers; the 2023 cisplatin/carboplatin shortage followed an FDA import alert on Intas. Responses: temporary imports (Qilu), Civica Rx and Phlow non-profit manufacturing, the White House/HHS supply-chain resilience programme, and FDA's Drug Shortage Task Force. Europe's Critical Medicines Act (2025) targets similar risks.
Redundant qualified sources, strategic reserves, and pricing floors to keep low-margin essential drugs in production.
