Piribo: New Publication Announcement, Commercial Insight: Transplantation
Piribo, the online destination for business intelligence for the biotech and pharmaceutical industry, has now added a new report called “Commercial Insight: Transplantation”. http://www.piribo.com/publications/treatments/commercial_insight_transplantation.html
(PRWEB) August 20, 2006 -- In 2005, over 50.000 solid organ transplants were conducted in the seven major markets. In order to prevent the patient's immune system from rejecting the transplanted organ, immunosuppression therapy is required for the lifetime of the graft with a base maintenance drug (either Calcineurin- or mTOR inhibitors) and adjunctive therapies (antimetabolites, steroids).
Highlights
The transplantation market poses unusual challenges to pharmaceutical companies, the most significant one being a lack of donor organs: the waiting list for transplants will continue to grow faster than the number of available organs. Another challenge is the static nature of the market: maintenance regimens of stable patients rarely get changed.The market for immusuppresssants used in transplantation is set to grow to $4.3 billion by 2015s. Despite changing protocols, the leading drug class by value should continue to be calcineurin inhibitors with a 37% market share, followed by mTOR inhibitors.mTOR inhibitors are expected to be the fastest growing class, driven by Wyeth's Rapamune. Datamonitor foresees the drug to gain a greater role as a primary immunsuppressant despite current tolerability issues. Bristol Myers Squibb's injectable fusion protein belatacept may offer another alternative to calcineurin inhibitors
