By: Rajesh Gunnam billion in 2010. It is forecast to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.8% for the next eight years, to reach $13.8 billion by 2018. The high growth rate during 2005-2010 is primarily attributed to the launch of biologics such as Enbrel (etanercept) Rituxan (rituximab). The growth was further fuelled by the launch of safer and more efficacious biologics such as Simponi (golimumab), Acetmra (tocilizumab) moderate growth due to the patent expiries of the major biologics and the subsequent launch of biosimilars in the market. The rheumatoid arthritis therapeutics pipeline is strong, with first-in-class and me-too molecules in the late stage of development, which when launched are expected to off-set generic incursion and drive the market. The rheumatoid arthritis therapeutics market has moderate unmet need. The current therapeutics landscape for rheumatoid arthritis has products that are efficacious but not curative. The efficacy of current product offerings in the rheumatoid arthritis therapeutics market is significant in terms of addressing disease symptoms and improving the lifestyle of the patients. Since rheumatoid arthritis is a heterogeneous disease patients’ response to the treatment is different; some patients respond to DMARD monotherapy whereas others respond to combination therapies. As a result it remains a major challenge to determine which combination is right for each patient. Most of the available products in the market have a favorable profile, but all these biologics are administered by a parenteral route, which have low compliance rates for drug administration. There are some patients who suffer from adverse effects from the drugs and could benefit from next-generation products. GlobalData’s analysis found that the current competition in the rheumatoid arthritis therapeutics market is strong, and available treatment options have been fairly successful in meeting the market demand. However, they do not have a high safety profile and lack curative properties; this creates market potential for new entrants with products of high efficacy and better safety profiles. Currently, the rheumatoid arthritis therapeutic landscape needs products which can offer a better safety profile alongside diseasemodifying properties, faster onset and longer durations of action. The extent of unmet need in the rheumatoid arthritis therapeutics market is considered to be moderate and can be fulfilled by technologically advanced products that are currently in the rheumatoid arthritis therapeutics pipeline. For Sample Pages, please click or add the below link to your browser: http://www.globaldata.com/ GlobalData analysed that the rheumatoid arthritis therapeutics pipeline is strong with 165 molecules in different stages of development. First-in-class molecules (119) are dominant in the rheumatoid arthritis therapeutics pipeline. These first-in-class molecules have distinct advantages over the currently marketed products which would bring a change in the disease course and clinical outcome. These molecules are expected to compete strongly with the currently approved products, offering equal or better efficacies and safety profiles leading to increased patient and physician satisfaction. In Phase III there are five first-inclass molecules. Of these, Phase III first-in-class molecules, tofacitinib and fostamatinib look more promising as both are oral formulations which will increase compliance and have low costs compared to the existing products. The launch of these molecules is expected to intensify future competition in the rheumatoid arthritis therapeutics market.
