Global Breast Cancer Vaccine Clinical Trial Insight
M2 - Wed Oct 29, 11:04AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/z2zwt4/global_breast) has announced the addition of the "Global Breast Cancer Vaccine Clinical Trial Insight" report to their offering. Cancer vaccines have emerged a viable option for treating multiple cancers which in the present day scenario do not have effective treatments. Therapeutic cancer vaccines and Prophylactic cancer vaccines are the two broad segments into which the cancer vaccines market is categorized. Therapeutic or Treatment vaccines are targeted at treating an existing cancer by strengthening the body's natural defenses against the cancer while the Prophylactic or Preventive vaccines are used to prevent cancer from developing in healthy people. With the approval of the prostate cancer vaccine, Provenge by Dendreon, the field of cancer vaccines has received an unprecedented boost. Consequently, many companies are expected to enter this highly profitable emerging field of preventing, treating, and potentially curing the cancer. In last few years, the peptide cancer vaccines have been demonstrating potential in clinical trials for the treatment of breast cancer. The high versatility and easy modification capabilities have made them widely acceptable among oncologists. They are sometimes developed to target over expressed receptors specific to the breast cancer cells. These vaccines stimulate a cancer patients' immune system to identify and eliminate breast cancer cells. Clinical trials have also shown the efficacy of peptide vaccines in shrinking breast cancer. This has encouraged the oncologists to develop better breast cancer vaccine for patients. The development and deciphering of underlying principle of breast cancer vaccine will improve significantly driven by technological advancement occurred in recent years. Innovative products developed in this way will decrease the development time and will also help in cost arbitrage. Without cost effectiveness it would be difficult for pharmaceutical companies to compete and occupy substantial share in breast cancer market. However, it is expected that the cost of these vaccines would be high at the time of introduction which will subsequently decrease due to availability of other vaccines in same category. It is most likely that the first breast cancer vaccines would be introduced in market in the next 3-5 years period. Clinical trials would be able to come with thoroughly checked version of products under investigation which would be able to provide higher levels of medical care to breast cancer patients. Most of the innovative products are at the final stages of clinical trials which are supposed to clear the targeted end points.

Global Type 1 Diabetes Market 2014-2018 with Astrazeneca, Eli Lilly and Co, Novo Nordisk A/S & Sanofi-Aventis US Dominating
M2 - Mon Jun 23, 4:28AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/5k8cfq/global_type_1) has announced the addition of the "Global Type 1 Diabetes Market 2014-2018 with Astrazeneca, Eli Lilly and Co, Novo Nordisk A/S & Sanofi-Aventis US Dominating" report to their offering. The Global Type 1 Diabetes Market will grow at a CAGR of 6.9% over the period 2013-2018. One of the main drivers in this market is the increase in the global type 1 diabetic population. The global type 1 diabetes population is increasing every year with an annual increase of 3 percent in children below 14 years of age. An increase in the type 1 diabetic population might increase the number of people opting for treatment. This will drive the sale and revenue of these drugs. The key vendors in the Global Type 1 Diabetes market are increasing their penetration in the emerging markets. Recent years have witnessed an increase in investment in manufacturing sites based in these countries with the intention to enhance the production of drugs such as insulin for local or global markets. For instance, the Frankfurt site is a key manufacturer for Sanofi diabetes products. However, Sanofi has invested in Russia for its Orel-based site to enable the production of insulin prefilled devices. For a similar category of products, Sanofi has also invested in a manufacturing site in Beijing to penetrate the market. Recently, Sanofi transferred the manufacturing technologies for Insuman insulin to Shantha Biotech in India (part of the Sanofi group). In 2009, Novo Nordisk completely transferred the production of NovoPen from Denmark to Tianjin. Also, in 2008, Novo Nordisk started the construction of an advanced insulin filling plant in Tianjin, which is expected to cater to the demand of the Chinese market for Penfill, the insulin based solution for injection in cartridges. Further, the report states that one of the major challenges is the side effects of current therapies for type 1 diabetes. A lack of effective treatment that can manage glucose levels without causing adverse effects considerably decreases effective disease management. Key Vendors - Astrazeneca plc - Eli Lilly and Co. - Novo Nordisk A/S - Sanofi-Aventis US LLC Other Prominent Vendors - Biodel Inc. - Diamyd Medical AB - DiaVacs Inc. - Generex Biotechnology Corp. - Lexicon Pharmaceuticals Inc. - Macrogenics Inc. - MannKind Corp. - Osiris Therapeutics Inc. - Tolerion Inc. - XOMA Corp.
