NEW YORK, May 22, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Reportlinker.com announces that a new market research report is available in its catalogue:

Alzheimer`s Disease Therapeutics and Diagnostics: Global Markets
http://www.reportlinker.com/p0170505/Alzheimer`s-Disease-Therapeutics-and-Diagnostics-Global-Markets.html#utm_source=prnewswire&utm_medium=pr&utm_campaign=Diagnostics

STUDY GOALS AND OBJECTIVES

BCC's goal in conducting this study was to determine the current status of Alzheimer's disease treatments and diagnostics and assess the growth potential of this area over a 5-year period, from 2012 to 2017.

Our key objective was to present a comprehensive analysis of the current pipeline of therapeutic and diagnostic technologies, analyze the market and forecast for Alzheimer's therapeutics and diagnostics, along with outlining the key factors that will influence this therapeutic area in the next few years.


REASONS FOR DOING THIS STUDY

Alzheimer's disease is becoming an increasingly difficult challenge to caregivers, families and the healthcare industry as the number of patients climb and the frustration with lack of effective treatments grows. Though there are a number of marketed drugs approved for AD, this remains a significant area of unmet medical need. Clinical success has proven elusive; however, there are now numerous companies developing novel treatments. This report will review the programs in development and quantify the market opportunities in AD. This study aims to quantify where this market is heading and where the opportunities may lie.

SCOPE OF REPORT

The scope of this report is on the pharmaceutical segment, diagnostics and imaging modalities. We have compiled a study of the market, and current and emerging modes of treatment. We present the market segment's economic environment, technological descriptions and issues, applications, market factors and potential, and forecasts for 2012 to 2017. We also project usage in the major primary and secondary disease application areas. This study will be of interest to the drug industry, patients, and the medical community. It will be of interest also to suppliers of products and services to this market area.

INTENDED AUDIENCE

The intended audience for this report is the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries and diagnostics, as well as the medical industry that treats patients in these areas.

METHODOLOGY

Both primary and secondary research methodologies were used in preparing this research report. We present an analysis, by each disease area, of the number of current patients. Then, based on our surveys, we analyze the potential applications for pharmaceuticals, and forecast markets for 2012 through 2017.

INFORMATION SOURCES

BCC surveyed approximately 50 companies to obtain data for this study. Included were drug development and diagnostics companies and medical professionals. We also spoke with patients affected by memory and cognition diseases. In addition, we compiled data from current financial and trade information, and government sources.

ANALYST CREDENTIALS

Yogita Zutshi has 14 years of industry experience working in the areas of clinical and market research in the pharmaceutical area. She has an MS in Organic Chemistry, an MS in Clinical Research and a Bachelor's in Education. She has also worked on research projects in clinical data management, and developed training modules for the clinical and pharmacovigilance areas.

REPORT HIGHLIGHTS

This report provides:

• An overview of the global market for Alzheimer's disease therapeutic and diagnostic technologies
• Analyses of global market trends, with data from 2011 and 2012, and projections of compound annual growth rates (CAGRs) through 2017
• Review of programs in development and quantification of market opportunities
• Discussion of the market segments' economic environment, technological descriptions and issues, and applications
• Projections of usage in the major primary and secondary disease application areas
• Comprehensive company profiles of major players in the industry.
