Stimulated by evidence of disease slowing with Teva/Lundbeck’s Azilect (rasagiline), and successful reformulation of leading dopamine agonists, the Parkinson’s disease market value is set to grow by an compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10% over the next 5 years (20072013), peaking at $3.1 billion in 2013.

Scope of this report

*

This report gives a strategic analysis of the likely impact that recent events will have on the future Parkinson’s disease market
*

Includes Parkinson’s disease-specific sales forecasts for the key brands and pipeline agents in the seven major markets to 2017
*

Provides a global market snapshot by including Parkinson’s disease-specific sales analysis for leading brands outside the seven major markets
*

Key conclusions are supported by key opinion leader comment

Research and analysis highlights

It has upgraded its forecasts of Teva/Lundbeck’s Azilect (rasagiline) following clinical evidence of disease slowing. Over the next 5 years Azilect is expected to become a standard first-line therapy, with sales peaking in 2013, making it the market leading Parkinson’s disease drug at this time.

GlaxoSmithKline’s Requip XL (ropinirole extended-release) is set to become the market leading dopamine agonist in 2009. The convenience of once-daily dosing, supported by the theoretical clinical advantage of smoother dopamine receptor agonism, will drive switching from the parent compound and Boehringer Ingelheim’s Mirapex (pramipexole).

It has downgraded its sales forecasts of UCB’s Neupro (rotigotine patch) as problems with crystallization of the active ingredient have led to supply issues at a critical phase in its lifecycle. Prescribers are now likely to switch to Requip XL, which arrived on the market at just the right time to take advantage of UCB’s misfortune.

2007 proved to be one of the most challenging years in recent times for UK mortgage lenders, as the later part of 2007 saw the mortgage sector being marred by liquidity issues.
