The Psoriatic Arthritis Market Will Reach More than $3.5 Billion in 2023, Owing to Continued Uptake of Biologics and Penetration of Premium-Priced Orals
PR Newswire - Mon Sep 08, 9:00AM CDT
Decision Resources Group finds that the market for psoriatic arthritis (PsA) therapies will grow nearly 66 percent, increasing to $3.7 billion in 2023, owing to the continued uptake of premium-price biologics and novel therapies that are expected to launch during the 2013 to 2023 forecast period. In 2013, five marketed TNF-alpha inhibitors dominated sales in the PsA market with over 90 percent of the $2.3 billion major-market total; adalimumab (AbbVie/Eisai's Humira) was the overall sales leader. Over the next decade, TNF-alpha inhibitors will retain their sales-leading position, but recently launched treatments ustekinumab (Janssen's Stelara) and apremilast (Celgene's Otezla), together with noval therapies--which include the anti-interleukin-17 monoclonal antibodies secukinumab (Novartis), ixekizumab (Eli Lilly), and brodalumab (Amgen/AstraZeneca/Kyowa Hakko Kirin) and the Janus-kinase inhibitor tofacitnib (Pfizer's Xeljanz)--will account for approximately 21 percent of 2023 PsA sales combined in the United States, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, United Kingdom and Japan.
