Research and Markets: Hemophilia Pipeline Overview - Once-a-week prophylaxis may soon become a reality

DUBLIN--()--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/flp7l8/hemophilia) has announced the addition of the "Hemophilia Pipeline Overview - Once-a-week prophylaxis may soon become a reality" report to their offering.

Among the products for hemophilia A and B that are likely to reach the market within the next 4 years are modified recombinant factor replacements that could reduce injection frequencies significantly, making once-a-week prophylaxis a reality.

Scope

- Assess key pipeline products with regards to current gold-standard therapies.

- Identify the prospects faced by next-generation products in this niche market.

- Review and profile current key pipeline hemophilia A and B factor replacement products.

- Assess current unmet needs and challenges faced by pipeline products.

Highlights

The most important unmet need is a longer half-life for clotting factors so that daily intravenous injections are no longer necessary. Moving from daily to weekly or fortnightly injections would improve patients' quality of life enormously.

Since longer clotting factor half-life is the major unmet need in hemophilia treatment, Datamonitor believes that novel recombinant compounds can only gain significant market share by either addressing the lack of long-acting recombinant factor IX therapeutics or by addressing the need for more competitively priced recombinant products.

Economy of scale plays a role when producing a biologic compound cost-effectively and established companies will have an advantage in this area; having the right infrastructure, production facilities, marketing channels, and sales force are important factors that will determine whether a company can successfully enter the hemophilia market.
