Based on molecules in the late-stage pipeline and historic success rates, over the next five years an average of 70–80 NAS are expected to launch annually, expanding the number of NAS launched globally by 350–400.
Checked: the figure 80 is stated in this passage. If it does not match, the extraction is wrong and we want to know.
