PharmaPoint: Atopic Dermatitis – Spain Drug Forecast and Market Analysis to 2022
Although the past decade has seen the atopic dermatitis market remain relatively unchanged and a saturated, highly genericized arena, the coming decade could see the launch of the first biologic, which will set a precedent and pave the way for others to follow suit.
By the mid-to-late term of GlobalData’s 2012 to 2022 forecast, Sanofi/Regeneron’s dupilumab is expected to reshape the moderate and severe treatment landscape.
Other events that are expected to invoke change to the previously stagnant atopic dermatitis market include the launch of a non-steroidal topical from Anacor, AN2728, generic erosion of branded topicals Protopic and Elidel in the US, and the increasing use of pharmacological treatments in the growing markets of India and China.
Based on GlobalData’s July 2013 survey data, the key growth drivers in Spain in the near term will be systemic products, particularly those within the antibiotics class, and off-label therapies Xolair and Actimmune. The anticipated uptake of these off-label therapies will be most prominent in patients with severe disease. Another important growth driver will be increasing uptake of the topical calcineurin inhibitor brand Elidel.

8 Market Outlook 76
8.1 Global Drivers and Barriers 76
8.1.1 Driver: Anticipated launch of the first biologic for the treatment of moderate to severe disease 76
8.1.2 Driver: The underserved severe refractory patient segment presents an untapped market opportunity 77
8.1.3 Driver: A drug that is able to target two or more atopic diseases would gain a foothold in these markets 77
8.1.4 Driver: Atopic dermatitis presents an attractive patient population for drug developers 77
8.1.5 Driver: Restoring skin barrier function remains a key goal of disease management, meaning a continued need for moisturizers and topical agents 78
8.1.6 Barrier: First to second line of therapy is dominated by cheap, genericized topical drugs which create significant obstacles for novel drugs hoping to penetrate the market 79
8.1.7 Barrier: The largest atopic dermatitis patient segment - mild disease - can be well-controlled on most forms of topical therapy 79
8.1.8 Barrier: Pediatric sufferers are the largest patient group and pose a high bar in terms of safety for new products 79
8.1.9 Barrier: The complexity of the multiple etiologies that lead to atopic dermatitis means that treatment outcomes with existing drugs are not universal across all patient groups 80
8.1.10 Barrier: A significant proportion of patients experience disease remission in their early adolescent years and this may occur without drug therapy 81
