Abstract

Introduction:

In 2010, the global market for hyaluronic acid (HA) viscosupplementation was valued at nearly $1.4 billion. The US maintained both the largest and fastest-growing market for HA viscosupplementation in 2010. Japan, the second-largest market globally, experienced a slight loss in market revenues in 2010 as a result of continuing biennial reimbursement cuts despite growth in treatment volumes that will continue steadily through 2015. The European market and emerging markets of Brazil, India, and China (BIC) together represent a significantly smaller portion of the global market; market revenue in both regions will grow, however, as a result of rising treatment volumes and the adoption of premium-priced products in many countries in these regions. Demand for HA viscosupplementation treatment volumes will also be fueled worldwide by the aging global population, which is more susceptible to osteoarthritis, the primary condition that requires HA viscosupplementation treatment. Moreover, rising obesity rates in most regions are also contributing to growing osteoarthritis prevalence rates, further raising demand for treatments. Increasing patient and physician awareness of the benefits of HA viscosupplementation compared to alternative treatments for osteoarthritis pain, such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs or cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors, is also helping to expand treatment volumes. While intense price competition and unfavorable reimbursement policies in many of the countries covered will limit average selling prices (ASPs), a trend toward shorter treatment regiments using premium-priced 3- and 1-injection products will contribute to overall increases in ASPs through 2015. Globally, the HA viscosupplementation market will experience strong growth over the forecast period.

Questions Answered in This Report:
  • In Europe, premium-priced 1- and 3-injection HA viscosupplementation products are becoming more popular because convenience has become a more important point of consideration compared to pricing for many patients. How will the adoption rate of 1-injection products differ across the various European countries? What are companies in the 3-injection and 5-injection segments doing to remain competitive? What is the outlook for the overall European HA viscosupplementation market over the course of the forecast period?
  • In the US, premium-priced 1-injection HA viscosupplementation products will be increasingly adopted over the forecast period. Will both 3- and 5-injection products be equally impacted? What is the expected impact of the introduction of other 1-injection products, such as Zimmer's Gel-200 and DePuy Mitek's MONOVISC? Will Smith & Nephew's Durolane enter the market before 2015?
  • In Japan, contrary to the previously expected trend, the percentage of treatments performed using brand name HA viscosupplementation products instead of generic competing products will slightly increase as a result of physician and patient preference for brands with strong established reputations. How are manufacturers of generic products responding to limited market share growth? How will the introduction of Genzyme's Synvisc 3-injection product (the first non-domestic and non–5-injection product available in Japan) affect the well-established and highly competitive Japanese market? What will the net effect on Japanese ASPs be from the shift in product mix? How will this impact the value of the Japanese HA viscosupplementation market?
  • In BIC, HA viscosupplementation is still a relatively new method of treatment; many physicians still look to administer alternative treatments, such as a combination of chondroitin and glucosamine in Brazil, ayurvedic practices in India, or traditional Chinese medicine in China. Nonetheless, following the introductions of well-recognized foreign brands within the past year with strong track records of safety and efficacy, physician awareness and confidence in HA viscosupplementation products will grow. Which country will show the strongest revenue growth moving into 2015 and why? How will the introduction and adoption of 1-injection products affect revenue growth across each HA viscosupplementation market? How will the lack of a 1-injection market in China affect its market size compared to Brazil and India?
