Women's Health Series: Endometriosis--How Will New Therapies Compare with Current Market Leaders?
Decision Resources, Inc., Sep 2008, Pages: 20
This report, along with the other reports in the Women’s Health Series, includes primary research with thought-leading clinicians. We conducted an in-depth survey with obstetricians/gynecologists who have expertise in treating endometriosis. In this report, you will find their opinions on current and emerging therapies, and on treatment approaches to endometriosis.
Endometriosis is the cause of chronic pain and potential infertility for many women. However, no new agent to treat the disease has emerged in more than ten years, and the most common treatments employ mechanisms of action that have been available for several decades. Furthermore, these treatments have significant drawbacks, most notably the loss of bone density and numerous menopause-like side effects. New agents in development may alleviate some of these problems with existing therapies and use this advantage to establish a position in the market.
