- CHAPTER 3 PARKINSON'S DISEASE R&D APPROACH
- Classification of marketed and pipeline products
- Market definition for this report
- Dopaminergics
- Levodopa still considered most effective agent for reducing PD symptoms
- Dopamine agonists
- Dopamine agonists considered first line therapy
- Mirapex (pramipexole) the market leading dopamine agonist
- Neupro (rotigotine CDS) offers an alternative delivery method
- Apokyn (apomorphine) helps niche patient cohort
- Several dopamine agonists with novel delivery systems are in development
- Catechol-O-methyltransferase inhibitors
- Comtan (entacapone) is the market leading COMT-inhibitor
- Stalevo reduces pill burden
- Monoamine oxidase inhibitors
- Selegiline has an established role in the treatment of early PD
- Zelapar (selegiline; orally disintegrating tablets) may offer advantages over conventional selegiline
- Azilect (rasagiline) has recently received approval for early and late stage PD
- Safinamide is the only MAOI in late stage development
- Other marketed therapies
- Anticholinergics provide little interest for developers of new treatments
- N-methlyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonists may hold further potential
- Novel therapies
- The potential for adenosine A2a receptor antagonists remains unclear
- Neuroprotectants aim to slow or stop the progression of PD
- Cell/ gene therapies are designed to make up for the loss of neurons in PD
- Clinical trial design in Parkinson's disease
- Neuroprotection clinical trial design continues to present challenges
- At risk patients are ideal for studies but are difficult to recruit
- Choice of clinical endpoints in neuroprotective studies depends on the population studied
- Futility studies help determine which agents to select for further study
- Delayed start design aims to separate symptomatic from neuroprotective effect of a study agent
- Clinical trial endpoints in Parkinson's disease
- Decreased latency to ON time, increased ON time, and decreased OFF time are key endpoints for EU and US approval

AbstractIntroduction
Despite affecting a large number of individuals, there are currently no treatments capable of curing either Parkinson's disease or Restless Legs Syndrome. Although available treatments are effective, numerous unmet needs prevail. Several compounds are in late-stage development and are forecast to achieve sales of $519m for Parkinson's disease and $399m for Restless Legs Syndrome in 2015.
Scope- Analysis of patient potential, unmet needs and clinical trial design in Parkinson's disease and Restless Legs Syndrome across the US, EU and Japan
- Overview of drugs in pre-registration, Phase III, II, I and preclinical development; with analysis of key companies involved in the market
- Detailed profiles of key compounds in development for Parkinson's disease and Restless Legs Syndrome, with forecasts of drug revenues to 2015
- Discussion of innovative early stage products and insight from key industry opinion leaders
Highlights
Dopamine agonists with alternative delivery systems are expected to drive near-term changes in the Parkinson's disease market. While Schwarz's rotigotine patch holds several advantages over current oral treatments its success looks set to be eclipsed by GSK's once-daily tablet, Requip Modutab, which is forecast to reach peak sales of $543m in 2011.
The mid-stage pipeline for Parkinson's disease is unimpressive, with a host of potential neuroprotectants failing to demonstrate conclusive benefits in slowing disease progression. The most exciting near-term prospects are likely to come from cell and gene therapy products such as Titan/Schering's Spheramine or Avigen's AV-201.
The recent approval of the dopamine agonists Requip and Mirapex for Restless Legs Syndrome have provided a viable treatment option. However, unmet needs still exist and treatments, such as XenoPort's XP13512 which offer alternative mechanisms to dopaminergic stimulation may provide greater symptomatic benefit to current treatments.
Reasons to Purchase- Understand unmet needs in the Parkinson's disease and Restless Legs Syndrome market based on key opinion leader comments
- Benchmark key late-stage Parkinson's disease and Restless Legs Syndrome compounds against current market leaders
- Assess the global sales forecasts of late-stage pipeline drugs; and examine their clinical and commercial potential
