簡介

目前仍未有經認可的治療漢汀頓症的藥,市場中仍有龐大的潛在需求。企業若能成功開發治療多種神經類疾病的藥物,將能獲得龐大的商機。

專門於醫療產業相關廣泛調查的美國市調公司 Decision Resources Inc. (總公司:Massachusetts State) 針對漢汀頓症治療的商機進行調查分析,並有系統地整理成報告書 "Does the Treatment of Huntington's Disease Represent a Commercial Opportunity?" 。

本報告書內容包括:漢汀頓症概要及目前的治療方法、新興治療方法、新的治療策略、課題及未來發展預測等。內容綱要摘記如下:

Abstract

Introduction

Huntington' s disease (HD) is a genetic neurological disorder characterized by uncontrolled body movements and cognitive dysfunction. No drugs are approved to treat the disorder, leaving a high level of unmet need. Commercial opportunity abounds, but the small patient population deters some companies. However, because of novel treatment approaches, interest in HD research is growing and companies may be able to tap into the enormous commercial potential, especially if a drug can treat multiple neurological diseases.

Questions Answered in This Spectrum Report:

  • Huntington' s disease has a small patient population across all markets. What are the advantages and disadvantages for drug developers? What effect does orphan-drug status have on a drug' s potential?
  • No therapies are approved specifi cally for HD; all current therapies are used off-label and provide only symptomatic relief. Which drugs are being investigated in clinical trials? What are the diffi culties? When will a drug launch for HD?
  • Novel treatment approaches including disease-modifying stem-cell and gene therapies are making some headway. What companies are investigating HD treatments and what are the most promising treatment approaches? At what stage are these treatments, and what are the chances of their launching for HD?

Scope:

  • Overview of Huntington' s disease: genetics, pathophysiology, epidemiology, symptoms, and diagnosis.
  • Current treatment approach: no therapies are approved for HD; several drugs are used off-label to treat symptoms.
  • Emerging therapies: disease-modifying agents, including Amarin' s Miraxion (Phase III) and Avicena' s HD-02 (Phase II), and symptomatic therapies, including Prestwick' s Xenazine (preregistered) and NeuroSearch' s ACR-16 (Phase II).
  • Novel treatment approaches: stem-cell transplantation and gene therapy.
  • Challenges and outlook: the future of the HD market.
