Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/l95k93/global) has announced the addition of the "Global Parkinson's Disease Market 2014-2018" report to their offering. Parkinson's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by damage of dopaminergic neurons located in various parts of brain including the substantia nigra. This lowers the concentration of dopamine in the striatum. A decrease in dopamine levels by 80 percent leads to the development of symptoms associated with Parkinson's disease such as tremor, bradykinesia, and muscular rigidity. It is usually diagnosed in the population aged 60 and over; however, earlier incidences have been reported. Based on the severity, it can be categorized into early stage, mid stage and late (or advanced) stage. Currently, the approved therapies provide only symptomatic relief. Levodopa is the standard drug for the treatment of Parkinson's disease; however, it is associated with the incidence of dyskinesias. Alternative surgical procedures such as bilateral globus pallidus interna stimulation and bilateral subthalamic nucleus stimulation can be used in Parkinson's disease patients under certain circumstances.

Global Endometriosis Market 2014-2018 with Abbvie Inc., AstraZeneca plc, Bayer AG & Pfizer Inc. Dominating
M2 - Thu Jul 17, 10:42AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/k8lcbs/global) has announced the addition of the "Global Endometriosis Market 2014-2018" report to their offering. This report covers the present scenario and the growth prospects of the Global Endometriosis market for the period 2013-2018. To calculate the market size, the report considers the revenue generated from the sales of various drugs used in the treatment of endometriosis that are available in the market. The launch of high-cost GnRH antagonist therapies such as AbbVie's Elagolix (which is in phase III trial) is expected during the forecast period. Currently, the market is being served by low-cost alternatives such as combined OCPs, NSAIDs, and progestins. Patients tend to choose low-cost alternatives, which will be a challenge to the high-cost GnRH Antagonist market. According to the report, the Global Endometriosis market is driven by a large amount of unmet need due to lack of diagnostics and lack of approved treatment options for the disease. Currently, the diagnosis is mainly through non-invasive methods where standard diagnostic procedures are not available. Thus, development of proper diagnostic tools for the early detection of the disease will increase the number of patients treated. A lack of approved drugs for the treatment of endometriosis creates a lucrative space for companies to develop new therapy options to enter the market. Further, the report states that one of the main challenges is patent expiries of endometriosis drugs which leads to loss of exclusive rights of branded products followed by the introduction of low-priced generics into the market. This poses a potential threat to the established companies that spend a huge amount on R&D. The report contains a comprehensive market and vendor landscape in addition to a SWOT analysis of the key vendors. Key Vendors - Abbvie Inc. - AstraZeneca plc - Bayer AG - Pfizer Inc. Other Prominent Vendors - Astellas Pharma Inc. - Abbvie Inc. - Repros Therapeutics Inc. - Sanofi SA - Takeda Pharmaceuticals Co. Ltd. Key Topics Covered: - Executive Summary - List of Abbreviations - Scope of the Report - Market Research Methodology - Introduction - Market Landscape - Rate of Incidence and Prevalence - Market Segmentation by Type of Therapy - Market Segmentation by Route of Administration and Type of Dosage Form - Pipeline Portfolio - 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/k8lcbs/global

M2 - Thu Jul 31, 5:48AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/l95k93/global) has announced the addition of the "Global Parkinson's Disease Market 2014-2018" report to their offering. Parkinson's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by damage of dopaminergic neurons located in various parts of brain including the substantia nigra. This lowers the concentration of dopamine in the striatum. A decrease in dopamine levels by 80 percent leads to the development of symptoms associated with Parkinson's disease such as tremor, bradykinesia, and muscular rigidity. It is usually diagnosed in the population aged 60 and over; however, earlier incidences have been reported. Based on the severity, it can be categorized into early stage, mid stage and late (or advanced) stage. Currently, the approved therapies provide only symptomatic relief. Levodopa is the standard drug for the treatment of Parkinson's disease; however, it is associated with the incidence of dyskinesias. Alternative surgical procedures such as bilateral globus pallidus interna stimulation and bilateral subthalamic nucleus stimulation can be used in Parkinson's disease patients under certain circumstances.

Global Endometriosis Market 2014-2018 with Abbvie Inc., AstraZeneca plc, Bayer AG & Pfizer Inc. Dominating
M2 - Thu Jul 17, 10:42AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/k8lcbs/global) has announced the addition of the "Global Endometriosis Market 2014-2018" report to their offering. This report covers the present scenario and the growth prospects of the Global Endometriosis market for the period 2013-2018. To calculate the market size, the report considers the revenue generated from the sales of various drugs used in the treatment of endometriosis that are available in the market. The launch of high-cost GnRH antagonist therapies such as AbbVie's Elagolix (which is in phase III trial) is expected during the forecast period. Currently, the market is being served by low-cost alternatives such as combined OCPs, NSAIDs, and progestins. Patients tend to choose low-cost alternatives, which will be a challenge to the high-cost GnRH Antagonist market. According to the report, the Global Endometriosis market is driven by a large amount of unmet need due to lack of diagnostics and lack of approved treatment options for the disease. Currently, the diagnosis is mainly through non-invasive methods where standard diagnostic procedures are not available. Thus, development of proper diagnostic tools for the early detection of the disease will increase the number of patients treated. A lack of approved drugs for the treatment of endometriosis creates a lucrative space for companies to develop new therapy options to enter the market. Further, the report states that one of the main challenges is patent expiries of endometriosis drugs which leads to loss of exclusive rights of branded products followed by the introduction of low-priced generics into the market. This poses a potential threat to the established companies that spend a huge amount on R&D. The report contains a comprehensive market and vendor landscape in addition to a SWOT analysis of the key vendors. Key Vendors - Abbvie Inc. - AstraZeneca plc - Bayer AG - Pfizer Inc. Other Prominent Vendors - Astellas Pharma Inc. - Abbvie Inc. - Repros Therapeutics Inc. - Sanofi SA - Takeda Pharmaceuticals Co. Ltd. Key Topics Covered: - Executive Summary - List of Abbreviations - Scope of the Report - Market Research Methodology - Introduction - Market Landscape - Rate of Incidence and Prevalence - Market Segmentation by Type of Therapy - Market Segmentation by Route of Administration and Type of Dosage Form - Pipeline Portfolio - 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/k8lcbs/global
