Logo

Naperville, IL -- (SBWire) -- 02/20/2014 --Reportstack, provider of premium market research reports announces the addition of PharmaPoint: Ulcerative Colitis - Global Drug Forecast and Market Analysis to 2022 market report to its offering
During the forecast period from 2012–2022, the growth of the UC market will be driven largely by the entry of Johnson & Johnson’s (J&J’s) Simponi and Takeda’s Entyvio, which will lead to an increase in the overall number of patients being treated with biologics in the US, 5EU, Japan, and Canada.

Another key event affecting the UC market is the anticipated launch of biosimilars, given that the patent expiry of the UC blockbusters, Remicade and Humira are set to expire in the US in 2018 and 2016, respectively.

Overall, major barriers to the growth of the UC market include:

Remicade and Humira losing patent protection in the mid-forecast

Austerity measures favoring generic prescribing

Biosimilars are predicted to face low uptake due to the lack of regulatory guidelines in some markets, such as the US

In 2012, The publisher estimates that the global UC market reached $4.2 billion across the 10 healthcare markets covered in our forecast: the US, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, the UK, Japan, Canada, China, and India. By the end of the forecast period, in 2022, sales across these markets will grow steadily to reach $6.6 billion, representing a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 4.8% over the 10-year timeframe .

Key Findings

The UC market has predominantly been driven by two TNF blockers, namely J&J’s Remicade and AbbVie’s Humira. Although these TNF blockers have monopolized the UC market for almost a decade, the balance is about to be tipped, with Takeda’s Entyvio imminently entering the market in 2014 and J&J’s Simponi launching in 2014 as well, stealing market share from Humira and Remicade.

Remicade and Humira will also be hit by their respective loss of patent protection in 2018 (US), 2015 (EU) and 2016 (US), 2018 (EU). Europe has already approved a biosimilar to Remicade, Celltrion’s Remsima, which will be marketed by Hospira under the brand name Inflectra in the EU. Due to lack of regulatory guidelines and the current debate about indication extrapolation for biosimilars based on a clinical trial in one indication, initial biosimilar uptake will be low, but by the end of the forecast period, in 2022 infliximab, adalimumab and golimumab biosimilars are forecast to become an established part of the UC market.

During the coming decade, Europe is expecting the approval and launch of a UC colectomy rescue therapy, InDex Pharmaceuticals’ Kappaproct. Kappaproct is targeting a small patient population group, but due to the involvement of key gastroenterologists in the development of this therapy, it will likely be welcomed for use in this new treatment setting, which has never been addressed before by a pharmaceutical product. In addition, Pfizer’s Xeljanz is expected to face low uptake post its estimated launch in 2017, owing to the controversy surrounding its rejection by the EMA for its primary indication, rheumatoid arthritis.
