PharmaPoint: Major Depressive Disorder - Global Drug Forecast and Market Analysis to 2023
M2 - Thu Sep 25, 5:39AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/9vx7ff/pharmapoint) has announced the addition of the "PharmaPoint: Major Depressive Disorder - Global Drug Forecast and Market Analysis to 2023" report to their offering. Product Launches and Patent Expiries to Push Major Depressive Disorder Treatment Market through Fluctuating Growth Period by 2023 This report provides an overview of Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), including epidemiology, etiology, pathophysiology, symptoms, diagnosis and current treatment options. The key topics covered include strategic competitor assessment, market characterization, unmet needs and implications for the MDD therapeutics market. The therapeutics market for Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) will face a dynamic phase up until the end of 2023, thanks to the potential launch of new treatments following the patent expirations of top-selling products, says a new report from research and consulting firm The authors. According to the company's latest report*, the MDD treatment market achieved sales of approximately $9.3 billion in 2013 across the seven major markets (7MM: the US, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, the UK and Japan) and Australia. These sales will witness minimal growth by the end of 2023, reaching an estimated $9.7 billion, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 0.39%. However, The authors forecasts that the market value will first undergo a decline until 2017, with sales dropping to $7.3 billion. This can be attributed mainly to the expirations of patents for Eli Lilly's Cymbalta, Otsuka Pharmaceutical/BMS' Abilify and AstraZeneca's Seroquel XR. The authors states that there are already seven products in the late-stage pipeline that could enter the MDD market during the forecast period. These include adjunctive therapies, such as Otsuka/Lundbeck's brexpiprazole, Forest (Actavis)/Gedeon Richter/Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma's cariprazine, Alkermes's ALKS-5461 and Naurex's GLYX-13, along with antidepressant therapies, including Euthymics Bioscience's amitifadine, Lundbeck/Takeda's tedatioxetine and e-Therapeutics' ETS6103. Koutsokeras continues: All seven of these pipeline drugs show promise as safer and more efficacious treatments for MDD patients, while GLYX-13 and ETS6103 in particular boast the potential to provide rapid antidepressant effects. With their ability to address some of the MDD treatment market's key unmet needs, we believe that these products' launches could well spark its return to growth in 2018. Other driving factors behind the reversal in its decline will be the increasing uptake of Lundbeck/Takeda's Brintellix, combined with the expanding number of MDD prevalent cases that we expect to see by the end of 2023.

The Impact of Genericization in the Unipolar Depression Market Will be Tempered by the Continued Uptake of Novel Antidepressants and Antipsychotics

Decision Resources Group finds that in the unipolar depression* market, the expanding use of two recently approved therapies--Lundbeck/Takeda Pharmaceutical's Brintellix (vortioxetine), Actavis (formerly Forest Laboratories)/Pierre Fabre's Fetzima (levomilnacipran ER)--together with the forecasted launch of Otsuka Pharmaceutical/Lundbeck's brexpiprazole in the major pharmaceutical markets (United States, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, United Kingdom and Japan) will offset a steep near-term decline in sales resulting from the loss of market exclusivity for the two key drugs prescribed for unipolar depression--duloxetine (Eli Lilly/Shionogi's Cymbalta/Xeristar, generics) and the atypical antipsychotic Abilify (Bristol-Myers Squibb/Otsuka Pharmaceutical's aripiprazole). By 2023, total major-market sales for unipolar depression will reach under $10 billion.

Global Alzheimer's Drugs Market 2014-2018 with Eisai Co. Forest Laboratories, Janssen Pharmaceuticals & Novartis Dominating
M2 - Fri Jul 11, 9:01AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/wldkgv/global) has announced the addition of the "Global Alzheimer's Drugs Market 2014-2018" report to their offering. The incidence rates for Alzheimer's disease are increasing, and the global Alzheimer's population is expected to double by 2030. Currently, it is estimated that 5 million Americans suffering from Alzheimer's disease are aged 65 years or above. This number might reach 13.8 million by 2050 as the baby boom generation ages. In the US, Alzheimer's disease is the fifth highest cause factor for deaths among people aged 65 years and above. It has been recognized as the only factor among the top 10 death-causing factors in America for which therapy is not available, preventing or slowing down the progression of disease. The number of deaths resulting from Alzheimer's disease increased by 68 percent during the period of 2000-2010 and this number is expected to increase further during the next decade. In the US, it is estimated that about 7,00,000 people aged 65 years or above will die from Alzheimer's disease in 2014. The incidence rate of Alzheimer's disease is increasing rapidly owing to a rise in the elderly population. In the US, the 2014 incidence rate of Alzheimer's disease for people aged 65 years or above is expected to reach 4,69,000 and this number is expected to double by 2050. According to the report, the Global Alzheimer's Drugs market is driven by several factors, of which the increase in the global aging population is one of the major drivers. The incidence of Alzheimer's disease is growing continuously, mainly because of an increase in the aging population, especially those aged 65 years or above. It is estimated about 596.8 million people will reach 65 years and above in 2014, and this number is expected to reach 681.2 million by 2018. Furthermore, the report states that one of the main challenges is the poor rate of Alzheimer's disease diagnosis. In developed economies, merely 20-50 percent of dementia cases are diagnosed while in developing economies such as India nearly 90 percent cases remain undiagnosed. The lack of diagnosis hampers the effective management of this disease.

PharmaPoint: Major Depressive Disorder - Global Drug Forecast and Market Analysis to 2023
M2 - Thu Sep 25, 5:39AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/9vx7ff/pharmapoint) has announced the addition of the "PharmaPoint: Major Depressive Disorder - Global Drug Forecast and Market Analysis to 2023" report to their offering. Product Launches and Patent Expiries to Push Major Depressive Disorder Treatment Market through Fluctuating Growth Period by 2023 This report provides an overview of Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), including epidemiology, etiology, pathophysiology, symptoms, diagnosis and current treatment options. The key topics covered include strategic competitor assessment, market characterization, unmet needs and implications for the MDD therapeutics market. The therapeutics market for Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) will face a dynamic phase up until the end of 2023, thanks to the potential launch of new treatments following the patent expirations of top-selling products, says a new report from research and consulting firm The authors. According to the company's latest report*, the MDD treatment market achieved sales of approximately $9.3 billion in 2013 across the seven major markets (7MM: the US, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, the UK and Japan) and Australia. These sales will witness minimal growth by the end of 2023, reaching an estimated $9.7 billion, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 0.39%. However, The authors forecasts that the market value will first undergo a decline until 2017, with sales dropping to $7.3 billion. This can be attributed mainly to the expirations of patents for Eli Lilly's Cymbalta, Otsuka Pharmaceutical/BMS' Abilify and AstraZeneca's Seroquel XR. The authors states that there are already seven products in the late-stage pipeline that could enter the MDD market during the forecast period. These include adjunctive therapies, such as Otsuka/Lundbeck's brexpiprazole, Forest (Actavis)/Gedeon Richter/Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma's cariprazine, Alkermes's ALKS-5461 and Naurex's GLYX-13, along with antidepressant therapies, including Euthymics Bioscience's amitifadine, Lundbeck/Takeda's tedatioxetine and e-Therapeutics' ETS6103. Koutsokeras continues: All seven of these pipeline drugs show promise as safer and more efficacious treatments for MDD patients, while GLYX-13 and ETS6103 in particular boast the potential to provide rapid antidepressant effects. With their ability to address some of the MDD treatment market's key unmet needs, we believe that these products' launches could well spark its return to growth in 2018. Other driving factors behind the reversal in its decline will be the increasing uptake of Lundbeck/Takeda's Brintellix, combined with the expanding number of MDD prevalent cases that we expect to see by the end of 2023.

The Impact of Genericization in the Unipolar Depression Market Will be Tempered by the Continued Uptake of Novel Antidepressants and Antipsychotics
PR Newswire - Wed Aug 13, 9:00AM CDT
Decision Resources Group finds that in the unipolar depression* market, the expanding use of two recently approved therapies--Lundbeck/Takeda Pharmaceutical's Brintellix (vortioxetine), Actavis (formerly Forest Laboratories)/Pierre Fabre's Fetzima (levomilnacipran ER)--together with the forecasted launch of Otsuka Pharmaceutical/Lundbeck's brexpiprazole in the major pharmaceutical markets (United States, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, United Kingdom and Japan) will offset a steep near-term decline in sales resulting from the loss of market exclusivity for the two key drugs prescribed for unipolar depression--duloxetine (Eli Lilly/Shionogi's Cymbalta/Xeristar, generics) and the atypical antipsychotic Abilify (Bristol-Myers Squibb/Otsuka Pharmaceutical's aripiprazole). By 2023, total major-market sales for unipolar depression will reach under $10 billion.

Global Alzheimer's Drugs Market 2014-2018 with Eisai Co. Forest Laboratories, Janssen Pharmaceuticals & Novartis Dominating
M2 - Fri Jul 11, 9:01AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/wldkgv/global) has announced the addition of the "Global Alzheimer's Drugs Market 2014-2018" report to their offering. The incidence rates for Alzheimer's disease are increasing, and the global Alzheimer's population is expected to double by 2030. Currently, it is estimated that 5 million Americans suffering from Alzheimer's disease are aged 65 years or above. This number might reach 13.8 million by 2050 as the baby boom generation ages. In the US, Alzheimer's disease is the fifth highest cause factor for deaths among people aged 65 years and above. It has been recognized as the only factor among the top 10 death-causing factors in America for which therapy is not available, preventing or slowing down the progression of disease. The number of deaths resulting from Alzheimer's disease increased by 68 percent during the period of 2000-2010 and this number is expected to increase further during the next decade. In the US, it is estimated that about 7,00,000 people aged 65 years or above will die from Alzheimer's disease in 2014. The incidence rate of Alzheimer's disease is increasing rapidly owing to a rise in the elderly population. In the US, the 2014 incidence rate of Alzheimer's disease for people aged 65 years or above is expected to reach 4,69,000 and this number is expected to double by 2050. According to the report, the Global Alzheimer's Drugs market is driven by several factors, of which the increase in the global aging population is one of the major drivers. The incidence of Alzheimer's disease is growing continuously, mainly because of an increase in the aging population, especially those aged 65 years or above. It is estimated about 596.8 million people will reach 65 years and above in 2014, and this number is expected to reach 681.2 million by 2018. Furthermore, the report states that one of the main challenges is the poor rate of Alzheimer's disease diagnosis. In developed economies, merely 20-50 percent of dementia cases are diagnosed while in developing economies such as India nearly 90 percent cases remain undiagnosed. The lack of diagnosis hampers the effective management of this disease.
