Albany, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/10/2014 -- Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), the most common form of adult leukemia, is caused by the uncontrolled proliferation of B lymphocytes (a type of white blood cell) in the bone marrow, blood and lymphoid tissues. This report focuses on the current treatment landscape, unmet needs, pipeline and commercial opportunity in the CLL market with coverage of both the first-line and relapsed/refractory settings. While the current standard of care consists of chemoimmunotherapy, CLL disease management is poised for dramatic changes, particularly in the treatment of relapsed/refractory and elderly patients, as four new drugs (Gazyva, Imbruvica, idelalisib and IPI-145) will launch during the forecast period. As they address large unmet needs, GlobalData expects these premium-priced new drugs will have rapid uptake driving the overall CLL market and contributing to over 70% of total market sales by 2018.

Highlights
Key Questions Answered
- Which CLL patients have the greatest unmet needs and how well will these needs be addressed by the new agents?
- How will CLL disease management change as new agents enter the market?
- What are the R&D and clinical trial design strategies pursued by companies in the CLL space?
- What are the most promising late-stage pipeline agents for CLL? How do their clinical and commercial attributes compare to one another and the current standards of care?
- What opportunities will remain for future players following the launch of these pipeline agents?
- What exciting, innovative approaches are being investigated in the early-stage CLL pipeline?

Key Findings
- The CLL market, in the 6MM is forecasted to rapidly increase from $1.4bn in 2013 to $3.3bn in 2018, at a CAGR of 18.8%. This growth will be driven by the launch and adoption of four new premium-priced drugs during the forecast period, including Gazyva, Imbruvica, idelalisib and IPI-145.
- GlobalData expects there will be rapid uptake of the new agents in the relapsed/refractory setting, particularly in those patients who do not have a good response to first-line treatment. In the first-line setting, GlobalData foresees a slower uptake of the new agents, particularly among fit patients who can enjoy lengthy and deep remissions from the current standard of care chemoimmunotherapy-based regimens.
- Among the new agents, GlobalData expects Imbruvica and idelalisib will dominate patient share and will account for more than 60% of all total sales in 2018 and drive 100% of total market growth. However, in GlobalDatas assessment, idelalisibs use in combination with Rituxan and its overall stronger clinical development program will help it emerge as the market leader in the relapsed/refractory setting by 2018.
