Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/20/2013 -- GlobalData has released its new PharmaPoint Drug Evaluation report, Orencia (Rheumatoid Arthritis) Forecast and Market Analysis. The RA market is currently very dynamic, with the November 6, 2012 FDA approval of Pfizer's Xeljanz (tofacitinib) and novel oral therapies awaiting approval such as: Eli Lilly's anti-BAFF, tabalumab and JAK1,2 inhibitor, baricitinib, and Rigel/AZ's SYK inhibitor, fostamatinib. These compounds will challenge the current biologics in the attempt to dislodge the stronghold of the TNF inhibitors, if their safety and efficacy profiles are proven once they enter the market.

Bristol-Myers Squibb's Orencia (abatacept) is a soluble biologic and structurally a fully human fusion protein of human cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated Antigen 4 (CTLA-4) and the Fc domain of human IgG1. The drug blocks T-cell activation by binding to CD80 and CD86, which in turn blocks their interaction with CD28.
