CHAPTER 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY




Scope of the analysis

Datamonitor insight into the psoriasis market

Psoriasis is currently under diagnosed, but awareness is increasing with the introduction of high-profile biologic brands.

Topical treatments such as calcipotriol and corticosteroids still dominate psoriasis treatment, leaving a gap for the moderate severity patient not effectively treated by this group, but not severe enough for an expensive or toxic systemic treatment.

Current and pipeline biologic brands are differentiated from selected traditional brands by their perceived superior efficacy, side-effect profile, dosing frequency and ability to treat comorbidities.

Abstract

Introduction
Psoriasis is a non-life threatening but highly debilitating disease that currently has no cure. Traditional treatments often either lack efficacy or are effective but have very poor side-effect profiles, limiting them to use in severe disease only. However, the market is growing as disease awareness increases through the approval and marketing of novel biologic treatments in this indication.

Scope
  • Overview of disease including detailed epidemiology, physician estimated diagnosis rates and severity split
  • Breakdown of treatment trends in the following markets: US, Japan, France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the UK
  • Survey of PCPs and dermatologists in the major markets to capture the treatment of the ranging severities of psoriasis, from mild to severe patients
  • Review of current treatment options and clinical debate including comments from key opinion leaders
Highlights
Psoriasis is currently under diagnosed with an average of 55% of sufferers diagnosed by a physician. However, awareness of the debilitating nature of this disease is increasing, driven by the introduction of high profile biologic brands into the market.

Topical treatments such as calcipotriol and corticosteroids still dominate psoriasis treatment, leaving a gap for the moderate severity patient not effectively treated by this group, but not severe enough for an expensive or toxic systemic treatment.

Current and pipeline biologic brands are differentiated from selected traditional brands by their perceived superior efficacy, side-effect profile, dosing frequency and ability to treat comorbidities.

Reasons to Purchase
  • Differentiate your product in the crowded psoriasis market through an understanding of physician perceptions of key product brands
  • Identify unmet needs and the most important attributes to prescribing physicians for steroidal, biologic and vitamin derivative treatment classes
  • Forecast product usage across the seven major markets based on estimated treatment class patient numbers
