The system is set up so that only new proprietary drugs are rewarded. This includes the creation of medical propaganda, such as the extreme focus of mutagenesis and genetics of cancer, when cancer is obviously heavily metabolically originated, and this propaganda is likely much bigger than any one CEO. Countries like china are also incentivized to follow this "planned obsolescence" medical economic model, many of the miracle meds are probably not typical meds at all but natural physiological substances that cost dimes to produce but require an intelligent and personalized application.
Another factor in this is the agricultural industry, which holds just as many economic interests as big pharma. If someone proves that onions makes you into a numale for example that would mean potential losses of billions of dollars as men all stop consuming it, or if glyphosate is proven to be carcinogenic then all those harvests become much less profitable.
