Abstract

Growing Penetration of Combination Drugs Spur Growth

The unprecedented success of GlaxoSmithKline's bronchodilator-corticosteroid combination drug, Advair, is changing the landscape of the U.S. asthma therapies market. As physicians become more comfortable with the long-term safety of Advair, few patient groups will remain off limits for this drug, which is already being used far widely than originally anticipated. "Future revenue growth lies in the growing adoption of Advair, and potentially other bronchodilator-corticosteroid combination drugs, such as AstraZeneca's Symbicort (budesonide-formoterol), at the expense of single-agent asthma drugs," says the analyst.

This Frost & Sullivan research analyzes the U.S. asthma therapies markets, divided into four main segments: bronchodilators, anti-inflammatories, bronchodilator-corticosteroid combinations, and other emerging therapies. It provides detailed insights into recent developments, trends, and emerging applications. This study also includes market forecasts and competitive and opportunity analysis.

Growing Acceptance of Dry Powder Inhaler Delivery Systems

The growing franchise of dry powder inhalers (DPIs) is posing a threat to the position of metered-dose inhalers (MDIs) in the future treatment of asthma. The rapid acceptance of DPIs is driven by its ease and convenience of use and potentially better drug deposition, compared with MDIs. Also, strict regulations governing the reformulation of older CFC-containing MDIs into hydrofluoroalkane (HFA) containing MDIs are boosting growth in the DPI market.

Newer Classes of Drugs Pave the Way for Long-term growth

Companies that develop new drugs to address unmet medical needs and position them suitably are guaranteed revenue success. Drug developers focus on new drugs with improved efficacy, longer duration of action and reduced frequency of dosing, more convenient administration, better safety, multiple mechanisms of action and/or disease-modifying capabilities. "The impact of novel product classes that address the underlying causes of asthma, such as monoclonal antibodies, phosphodiesterase-IV inhibitors, and alpha4 integrin antagonists, may be significant in the long term," says the analyst of this study.
