M2 - Wed Apr 30, 9:29AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/h6hh5c/pharmapoint) has announced the addition of the "PharmaPoint: Migraine - US Drug Forecast and Market Analysis to 2023" report to their offering. By 2023, the migraine market will grow to $3.7 billion at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.6%, with the US continuing to dominate the market as a result of higher drug prices and a large migraine population. Some of the new treatments are expected to target the key unmet needs but opportunities will remain for further treatment choices especially drugs that will offer an improved safety and side-effects profile. The US migraine market is the largest given its population size and high drug prices. The main growth driver during this period will be Allergan's Botox, in addition to the launch of new combinations of drug and device and new classes of acute therapy. Historically the triptans have dominated the acute migraine segment and although the gold standard, GSK's Imitrex, expired in 2008, it has remained as one of the most popular triptans among physicians. A recent trend in this segment is the development of devices that can deliver drugs in a more effective way, such as Sumavel DosePro, a needle-free injection of sumatriptan. Scope - Overview of Migraine including epidemiology, etiology, symptoms, diagnosis, pathology and treatment guidelines as well as an overview on the competitive landscape. - Detailed information on the key drugs in the US including product description, safety and efficacy profiles as well as a SWOT analysis. - Sales forecast for the top drugs in the US from 2012-2023. - Analysis of the impact of key events as well the drivers and restraints affecting the US Migraine market.

Global Glaucoma Therapeutics Market 2014-2018: Allergan Inc, Merck & Co. Inc, Novartis AG & Pfizer Dominate the Industry
M2 - Tue Apr 29, 10:40AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/kqdgkx/global_glaucoma) has announced the addition of the "Global Glaucoma Therapeutics Market 2014-2018" report to their offering. There is a high degree of R&D in the early stages of development in the glaucoma therapeutics pipeline. Some of the new pipeline products, in the early stages of development possess novel mechanisms of action such as ROCK inhibitors, or the VEGF inhibitors. The new drugs in the early stage pipeline with novel mechanisms of action are targeting the cause of the disease rather than providing symptomatic relief. These drugs could significantly cater to the existing unmet needs of the market but are not expected to be launched and to have any influence during the forecast period. For instance, Muscarinic (phase I), a small molecule by ACADIA Pharmaceuticals Inc., AR-13324 (phase II), a ROCK inhibitor by Aerie Pharmaceuticals Inc. are novel molecules and are expected to fulfill the existing unmet needs of the Global Glaucoma Therapeutics market. According to the report, the Global Glaucoma Therapeutics market is driven by several factors, of which the increasing prevalence of eye disorders is one of the major drivers. An increase in the prevalence of eye disorders around the world has consequently led to a rise in the incidence of age-related eye diseases. Glaucoma is the most common type of age-related eye disorder. Further, the report states that the increasing number of patent expirations is one of the main challenges. The patent expiries of major approved drugs will slow down the market growth during the forecast period, thereby reducing the overall market value. The Global Glaucoma Therapeutics market can be divided into five segments: - Prostaglandins - Beta Blockers - Alpha Adrenergic Agonists - Carbonic Anhydrase Inhibitors - Fixed Dose Combinations. Key Vendors - Allergan Inc. - Merck & Co. Inc. - Novartis AG - Pfizer Inc. Key Topics Covered: - Executive Summary - List of Abbreviations - Scope of the Report - Market Research Methodology - Introduction - Market Landscape - Pipeline Snapshot - Rate of Incidence and Prevalence - Market Segmentation by Drug Class - Geographical Segmentation - Buying Criteria - Market Growth Drivers - Drivers and their Impact - Market Challenges - Impact of Drivers and Challenges - Market Trends - Trends and their Impact - Vendor Landscape - Key Vendor Analysis For more information visit http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/kq...l_glaucoma

Global Anti-aging Market 2013-2019 - North America Lead the Way
M2 - Tue Apr 29, 3:26AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/sxj3lx/antiaging_market) has announced the addition of the "Anti-aging Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2013 - 2019" report to their offering. Anti-aging market is growing as modern technologies have initiated the involvement of novel anti-aging treatments and products. Anti-aging market is segmented into products, services and devices. Anti-aging product market compared to services was observed to be resilient to economic cycles because it was observed that during a financial downturn customers shifted to cost efficient mass marketed products which prevented any major declination in products market. Anti-aging market can also be segmented on the basis of age demographics such as baby boomers, generation X and generation Y. Baby boomers are observed to the major target for anti-aging industry as this generation is aging and have high disposable income. According to a statistical data, 44% of US population is of Baby Boomers and 70% of US's disposable income is owned by Baby boomers. It was also observed that baby boomers and generation X are the most aware and potential customers for anti-aging market. This age group is investing more into anti-aging products market as they have already crossed 50 years and now expect to delay or mask the aging signs whereas generation X is investing more in anti-aging services market to maintain their appearance as they have reached in their forties. Anti-aging market consists of products, services and devices among which by revenue product segment leads the market followed by services and devices. The future growth of products market was observed to depend on the innovation and technological development with increase in the efficacy and safety of anti-aging products. North America is the leading geography for anti-aging market due to high awareness about aging signs, rise in obesity and sedentary lifestyle which are the major drivers of this market. Anti-aging services and products market are observed to be more mature markets than devices but demand for devices for personal use is increasing in this geography. Asia- Pacific market is expected to grow as the acceptance of new product, service or device has been increased over years due to awareness among population of Asia-Pacific and their growing economies have also added up to their disposable income capacities.
