Global HIV Drug Forecast and Market Analysis to 2022
M2 - Thu Feb 27, 4:13AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/vwjjw9/pharmapoint_hiv) has announced the addition of the "Global HIV Drug Forecast and Market Analysis to 2022" report to their offering. China's HIV Drug Market Revenue to Plummet 65% by 2020 A growing generics sector, combined with the introduction of compulsory licensing, will lead to a dramatic revenue drop in China's HIV therapeutics market in the near future, predicts research and consulting firm The authors. HIV drug sales in China to fall from a 2012 valuation of US$374m to US$129m in 2020 at a negative Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 12.5%. The primary factor in this expected revenue depreciation is the increased dominance of generic drug use amongst Chinese physicians. Before the end of the decade, patents for key HIV drugs including AbbVie's Norvir, Janssen's Prezista and Merck's Crixivan are due to expire, leaving the market open to the entrance of much cheaper generic variants. A generic version of ViiV's Epzicom will enter the Chinese market in 2016, followed by Gilead's Truvada and Atripla drugs in 2018. However, China's recently amended intellectual property laws could mean these treatments - if declared to be of public interest - face compulsory licensing before their respective patent expiration dates. Compulsory licensing will make HIV drugs available to a much larger segment of the HIV positive population. China is adopting aggressive healthcare policies to identify newly infected people and connect them with the appropriate level of treatment to limit viral transmission. Use of branded drugs would result in an increased financial burden for the Chinese government, but compulsory licensing can potentially make treatment for all infected people a reality. However, while the adoption of compulsory licensing potentially increases the size of the treated population, it limits the attractiveness of the market for pharmaceutical companies. The authors new report forecasts the global HIV therapeutics market to decrease in value from US$11.4 billion in 2012 to US$10.8 billion in 2022, representing a negative CAGR of 1% over the 10 year period.

2013 Report on the Japanese HIV Drug Market - Forecasts to 2022
M2 - Mon Jan 20, 4:18AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/l4jfdl/pharmapoint_hiv) has announced the addition of the "2013 Report on the Japanese HIV Drug Market - Forecasts to 2022" report to their offering. The treatment algorithm in HIV has characteristically involved multiple drug regimens designed to tackle the virus on different levels. In the recent past, simplified dosing regimens through the emergence of single tablet regimens (STRs) or fixed dose combination (FDC) therapies have become increasingly popular amongst physicians and patients alike by increasing clinical efficacy thresholds and enabling patient compliance. This can be explained by the low prevalence and incidence rates of HIV in Japan. Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), the causative agent of AIDS, has claimed millions of lives since its emergence. However, the advent of antiretroviral therapy (ART) has transformed the face of HIV/AIDS from a deadly disease to a manageable chronic condition for most infected individuals. Antiretroviral treatment not only reduces the viral load and reconstitutes immune function, but also decreases infection incidence rates by limiting viral transmission The Japanese market is different from the other major markets in that STR use has not yet been introduced. For example, Atripla, which is the market leader in the US and Europe, is not currently licensed in Japan. However, the first integrase-based STR, Gilead's Stribild, which was approved by the FDA in August 2012, might be launched in Japan by the end of 2013 or at the beginning of 2014. Japan Tobacco, through its research alliance with Gilead, filed for market approval of elvitegravir in December 2012 with the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare. It is forecasted that ViiV will adopt a similar approach to launch the novel INI-based inhibitor dolutegravir and 572-Trii into the Japanese market. Key Topics Covered: 1 List of Tables and Figures 2 Introduction 3 Disease Overview 4 Disease Management 5 Competitive Assessment 6 Opportunity and Unmet Need 7 Pipeline Assessment 8 Market Outlook 9 Appendix For more information visit http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/l4...apoint_hiv

UK Cigarettes & Tobacco Market Report 2013
M2 - Tue Dec 10, 9:51AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/vpt9l7/cigarettes_and) has announced the addition of the "Cigarettes & Tobacco Market Report 2013" report to their offering. This Market Report analyses the cigarettes and tobacco market in the UK. It covers various types of smoking tobacco products, with the analysis focused on items that are sold in the retail sector. The total value for retail sales of cigarettes and tobacco products grew by 6.4% and 2.4%, respectively, in 2011 and 2012. The increase in market value was driven primarily by price increases and government tax hikes on these products. Official statistics show that the proportion of smokers in Great Britain has been falling steadily since 1974, due to increased awareness of the health risks involved in smoking, and legislative restrictions implemented by the Government, such as the smoking ban in public places and the ban on cigarette vending machines. The economic downturn in 2008 also contributed to the downwards trend as some consumers decided to quit smoking due to financial problems. In 2011, 20% of the total adult population in Great Britain smoked, down from 27% in 2000 and 45% in 1974. Traditional manufactured cigarettes continued to account for the largest sector of the market over the review period, with the sector growing year-on-year between 2010 and 2012. Prior to that, the traditional cigarette market contracted by 0.6% in 2009, affected by the economic downturn. Sales of hand-rolling tobacco (HRT) grew throughout the review period, with the sector rising by an estimated 31.1% between 2008 and 2012. Growth in HRT has been driven by the increasing number of smokers switching from cigarettes to HRT to save money. The UK cigar and pipe tobacco sectors were in long-term decline well before the recent economic downturn and continue to fall in value. In 2012, sales of cigar and pipe tobacco products fell by 7.3% and 36.7%, respectively. The market is dominated by a handful of tobacco companies, including Philip Morris International (PMI); British American Tobacco (BAT); Imperial Tobacco; and Japan Tobacco International (JTI). These companies operate on a global scale and have a combined share of nearly half the global market. In order to remain competitive, large tobacco companies are beginning to adopt alternatives to traditional cigarettes, such as electric cigarettes (e-cigarettes). The authors forecast that the UK market for cigarettes and tobacco will continue to grow in value terms over the next 5 years, driven mainly by greater tax hikes and price increases.

Global HIV Drug Forecast and Market Analysis to 2022
M2 - Thu Feb 27, 4:13AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/vwjjw9/pharmapoint_hiv) has announced the addition of the "Global HIV Drug Forecast and Market Analysis to 2022" report to their offering. China's HIV Drug Market Revenue to Plummet 65% by 2020 A growing generics sector, combined with the introduction of compulsory licensing, will lead to a dramatic revenue drop in China's HIV therapeutics market in the near future, predicts research and consulting firm The authors. HIV drug sales in China to fall from a 2012 valuation of US$374m to US$129m in 2020 at a negative Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 12.5%. The primary factor in this expected revenue depreciation is the increased dominance of generic drug use amongst Chinese physicians. Before the end of the decade, patents for key HIV drugs including AbbVie's Norvir, Janssen's Prezista and Merck's Crixivan are due to expire, leaving the market open to the entrance of much cheaper generic variants. A generic version of ViiV's Epzicom will enter the Chinese market in 2016, followed by Gilead's Truvada and Atripla drugs in 2018. However, China's recently amended intellectual property laws could mean these treatments - if declared to be of public interest - face compulsory licensing before their respective patent expiration dates. Compulsory licensing will make HIV drugs available to a much larger segment of the HIV positive population. China is adopting aggressive healthcare policies to identify newly infected people and connect them with the appropriate level of treatment to limit viral transmission. Use of branded drugs would result in an increased financial burden for the Chinese government, but compulsory licensing can potentially make treatment for all infected people a reality. However, while the adoption of compulsory licensing potentially increases the size of the treated population, it limits the attractiveness of the market for pharmaceutical companies. The authors new report forecasts the global HIV therapeutics market to decrease in value from US$11.4 billion in 2012 to US$10.8 billion in 2022, representing a negative CAGR of 1% over the 10 year period.

2013 Report on the Japanese HIV Drug Market - Forecasts to 2022
M2 - Mon Jan 20, 4:18AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/l4jfdl/pharmapoint_hiv) has announced the addition of the "2013 Report on the Japanese HIV Drug Market - Forecasts to 2022" report to their offering. The treatment algorithm in HIV has characteristically involved multiple drug regimens designed to tackle the virus on different levels. In the recent past, simplified dosing regimens through the emergence of single tablet regimens (STRs) or fixed dose combination (FDC) therapies have become increasingly popular amongst physicians and patients alike by increasing clinical efficacy thresholds and enabling patient compliance. This can be explained by the low prevalence and incidence rates of HIV in Japan. Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), the causative agent of AIDS, has claimed millions of lives since its emergence. However, the advent of antiretroviral therapy (ART) has transformed the face of HIV/AIDS from a deadly disease to a manageable chronic condition for most infected individuals. Antiretroviral treatment not only reduces the viral load and reconstitutes immune function, but also decreases infection incidence rates by limiting viral transmission The Japanese market is different from the other major markets in that STR use has not yet been introduced. For example, Atripla, which is the market leader in the US and Europe, is not currently licensed in Japan. However, the first integrase-based STR, Gilead's Stribild, which was approved by the FDA in August 2012, might be launched in Japan by the end of 2013 or at the beginning of 2014. Japan Tobacco, through its research alliance with Gilead, filed for market approval of elvitegravir in December 2012 with the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare. It is forecasted that ViiV will adopt a similar approach to launch the novel INI-based inhibitor dolutegravir and 572-Trii into the Japanese market.

UK Cigarettes & Tobacco Market Report 2013
M2 - Tue Dec 10, 9:51AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/vpt9l7/cigarettes_and) has announced the addition of the "Cigarettes & Tobacco Market Report 2013" report to their offering. This Market Report analyses the cigarettes and tobacco market in the UK. It covers various types of smoking tobacco products, with the analysis focused on items that are sold in the retail sector. The total value for retail sales of cigarettes and tobacco products grew by 6.4% and 2.4%, respectively, in 2011 and 2012. The increase in market value was driven primarily by price increases and government tax hikes on these products. Official statistics show that the proportion of smokers in Great Britain has been falling steadily since 1974, due to increased awareness of the health risks involved in smoking, and legislative restrictions implemented by the Government, such as the smoking ban in public places and the ban on cigarette vending machines. The economic downturn in 2008 also contributed to the downwards trend as some consumers decided to quit smoking due to financial problems. In 2011, 20% of the total adult population in Great Britain smoked, down from 27% in 2000 and 45% in 1974. Traditional manufactured cigarettes continued to account for the largest sector of the market over the review period, with the sector growing year-on-year between 2010 and 2012. Prior to that, the traditional cigarette market contracted by 0.6% in 2009, affected by the economic downturn. Sales of hand-rolling tobacco (HRT) grew throughout the review period, with the sector rising by an estimated 31.1% between 2008 and 2012. Growth in HRT has been driven by the increasing number of smokers switching from cigarettes to HRT to save money. The UK cigar and pipe tobacco sectors were in long-term decline well before the recent economic downturn and continue to fall in value. In 2012, sales of cigar and pipe tobacco products fell by 7.3% and 36.7%, respectively. The market is dominated by a handful of tobacco companies, including Philip Morris International (PMI); British American Tobacco (BAT); Imperial Tobacco; and Japan Tobacco International (JTI). These companies operate on a global scale and have a combined share of nearly half the global market. In order to remain competitive, large tobacco companies are beginning to adopt alternatives to traditional cigarettes, such as electric cigarettes (e-cigarettes). The authors forecast that the UK market for cigarettes and tobacco will continue to grow in value terms over the next 5 years, driven mainly by greater tax hikes and price increases.
