Its activities span small‑molecule and biologic R&D, active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) and finished‑dose manufacturing, and global supply chain operations. Core therapeutic areas include oncology, immunology, neuroscience, cardiovascular, renal and metabolic diseases, and ophthalmology. Novartis Pharma AG operates research and production sites across Europe, the Americas, and Asia, and collaborates with academic and industry partners for in‑licensing and co‑development.
