Global Dry Eye Syndrome Drug Forecast and Market Analysis to 2022
M2 - Thu Feb 27, 5:10AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/xqq9pt/pharmapoint_dry) has announced the addition of the "PharmaPoint: Dry Eye Syndrome - Global Drug Forecast and Market Analysis to 2022" report to their offering. Significant growth is expected in the DES market from 2012-2022. 2012 DES therapeutic sales to be approximately $1.6 billion across the 9 markets covered in this forecast: US, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, UK, Japan, China, and India. By the end of the forecast period, sales will grow to $5.5 billion at a CAGR of 12.8%. The majority of the current DES drug sales are in the US although it is not the market with the greatest number of DES patients. DES is a relatively immature market and very few countries have a prescription eye drop on the market. The US has the top revenue-generating product, Restasis, approved for dry eye patients with total US drug sales for DES reaching almost $1 billion in 2012. The US will remain the most lucrative DES market over the forecast period despite the key patent expiration of Restasis and the approval of several late-stage drugs in competing markets Major drivers to the growth of the DES market over the forecast period will include: - The launch of novel pipeline drugs, which are predicted to generate strong uptake, as well as the growth and expansion of already launched products including Restasis, Diquas and Mucosta. - A global push for increased physician and patient awareness which will increase diagnosis and treatment rates - A rapidly growing elderly population to broadly expand the patient base. Major barriers to the growth of the DES market will include: - Patients self-medicating with artificial tears or home remedies and the severity of their DES worsening before seeking treatment - Patient compliance is typically very low for DES drugs - The increasingly crowded DES marketplace will make it more difficult for newer treatments to differentiate themselves from the established agents and achieve significant individual patient share. While the market is not currently crowded, the approval of several new treatments in the next 3 years will make it difficult for late-forecast entrants Key Topics Covered: 1 Tables & Figures 2 Introduction 3 Disease Overview 4 Epidemiology 5 Disease Management 6 Competitive Assessment 7 Opportunity and Unmet Need 8 Pipeline Assessment 9 Current and Future Players 10 Market Outlook Companies Mentioned - Allergan - Alcon (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Novartis AG) - Santen Pharmaceutical - Shire/SARcode Bioscience - Otsuka Holdings - Can-Fite Biopharma - Eyegate Pharma For more information visit http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/xq...apoint_dry
Global Obesity Drug Forecast and Market Analysis to 2022 - Market to Reach $8.4 Billion
M2 - Thu Feb 27, 4:06AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/l5mtst/pharmapoint) has announced the addition of the "PharmaPoint: Obesity - Global Drug Forecast and Market Analysis to 2022" report to their offering. Obesity Therapy Market to Reach $8.4 billion by 2022 Due to the launches of several novel drugs during the next decade, the obesity market will increase from $407m in 2012 to $8.4 billion by 2022, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 35.3%, forecasts research and consulting firm The authors. The US, Canada and Japan will have the largest obesity therapy sales by 2022, with shares of $5.3 billion, $702m and $484m, respectively. The obesity space has seen little activity in the past decade due to a pharmacological history of modest efficacy, poor tolerability with dangerous side effects, and limited healthcare coverage, which have all contributed to the commercial failure of anti-obesity drugs. Recently, however, there has been a revival of this market space, as a couple of companies have released drugs that challenge these limitations. The two drugs that will have the greatest impact on the size of the market are Victoza and Belviq. Victoza's advantage, in addition to its efficacy, lies largely in the fact that it is marketed for the treatment of type 2 diabetes by Novo Nordisk. Belviq's advantage lies in its novelty; unlike Vivus' Qsymia and the two drugs being developed by Orexigen, it is a novel molecular entity, rather than a combination of existing therapeutic options. With the changing tide of opinion on the treatment of obesity and the upcoming launches of new drugs and devices, we anticipate that the prescribing of obesity therapies will increase over the next 10 years, boosting the market size, Wong says. Still, there is a lack of reimbursement for obesity drugs in the US and public health systems throughout the rest of the world, which could hinder any further market growth.
