Executive Summary

Leukemia has not historically been the focus of significant R&D investment for emerging drugs in the pharmaceutical industry. This has now clearly changed with the launch of Novartis' second-line therapy Gleevec (imatinib mesylate) for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), is presenting the industry with proof that development within the leukemia market produces lucrative returns. Gleevec saw sales rise 47 percent to $757 million in the first half 2004. There will soon be a harder competition in several of the leukemic sub-markets and current treatments will be changed for the benefit of more innovative therapies.
