Dry Eye Syndrome: Global Drug Forecast and Market Analysis to 2026
Summary
Dry Eye Syndrome (DES) is a multifactorial disease of the tears and ocular surface that causes ocular discomfort, visual disturbances, and tear film instability, which can potentially damage the ocular surface. With a rapidly accelerating worldwide prevalence and the limited treatment options available, there is a growing pressure for new therapies and curative treatment for DES patients. Significant efforts are being made to develop a new treatment for DES, as current pharmacologic management is known to only provide temporary symptomatic relief.
GlobalData estimates the 2016 sales for DES at approximately USD 2.2B across the 8MM covered in this report.
The DES pipeline activity comprises 10 active Phase III (or Phase II/III) pipeline agents with novel mechanisms of action as well as cyclosporines with improved clinical profiles. Additionally, six of these late-stage pipeline drugs are expected to be first-in-class therapies. The most notable pipeline drugs include RegeneRx's thymosin beta-4 product RGN-259, Aldeyra's reproxalap which acts as an aldehyde trap, and Sylentis' TRPV1 inhibitor tivanisiran. Other late-phase novel drugs include Mitotech's mitochondrial antioxidant product visomitin, Kala Pharmaceuticals' corticosteroid KPI-121, and Novartis' and Dompe's recombinant human lubricin protein ECF-843. GlobalData expects these new drugs will expand the DES treatment options and contribute to overall market growth. Nevertheless, considerable opportunities remain within this severely underserved DES market.
Key Questions Answered
- What are the key unmet needs clinically and in research? What do KOLs identify as the key unmet needs? Will the products in the DES pipeline fill these unmet needs?
- When are the pipeline products expected to launch? What are the key features of the products in the pipeline?
- What are the threats for drugs currently on the market? How will the new pipeline products be incorporated into the current treatment algorithm?
- What are the key hurdles for manufacturers entering the DES market?
Scope
