Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (Event Driven)

Decision Resources, Inc, December 2011, Pages: 219

The sizeable therapeutic market for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a disease that is closely affiliated with smoking, continues to expand. More patients are diagnosed with COPD every year as populations age, efforts to promote awareness of the disease continue, and the use of spirometry to diagnose COPD becomes more widespread.

The expanding COPD patient population has great unmet need because truly disease-modifying pharmacotherapies are lacking; current treatments merely alleviate symptoms and do not slow or reverse the progression of COPD. However, large gains are possible in the COPD market for therapies that offer incremental improvements in existing treatment modalities.

For example, improving COPD patients’ compliance with their medications by offering more convenient dosing will lead to better treatment outcomes as well as market growth. Major-market COPD sales will grow substantially over our forecast period owing to the uptake of once-daily, fixed-dose combinations.
