Market Overview

Partnerships between Specialty Pharmaceutical and Drug Delivery Companies to Help Improve Therapies for Opioid and Non-Opioid Pain Management

The significant recall of Vioxx and Bextra from the market, coupled with the robust demand for pain management therapies, is creating substantial opportunities for novel therapies in the U.S. opioid and non-opioid pain management markets. Despite the lack of major breakthrough therapies, specialty pharma and drug delivery companies have successfully engaged in lifecycle management partnerships to relaunch older therapies in newer formulations to cater to the swelling demand.

"A rapidly ageing population is substantially driving the need for effective pain management therapies for acute and chronic pain," says the analyst of this research service. "There is considerable unmet medical need in the treatment of pain and newer and more effective therapies will be welcome in this market." Noting the remarkable market potential, several "Big Pharma", specialty pharmaceutical, and drug delivery companies have been planning to expand their market presence, thereby driving market growth.

Drug Delivery Companies to Promote Abuse-proof Formulations to Gain Wider Customer Acceptance and Meet Regulatory Norms

There have been increasing apprehensions regarding the safety profile of opioid and non-opioid therapies. The escalating regulatory and media scrutiny on opioid therapies have compelled drug companies to address the issue of potential drug abuse. "The collaborations between pharmaceuticals and drug delivery companies have ensured that next-generation drugs have abuse- and tamper-resistant formulations," notes the analyst. Market participants can promote this benefit to not only expand their customer base but also meet the increasingly stringent regulatory norms.
