Chronic, Acute and Neuropathic Pain Market Report 2016 - Chronic Pain Treatment Pipeline Could Yield Innovative Alternatives to Opioids - Research and Markets
DUBLIN, September 15, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --
Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Frontier Pharma: Chronic, Acute and Neuropathic Pain - GPCR and Nerve Growth Factor-based therapies offer strong potential in difficult-to-treat subtypes" drug pipelines to their offering.
Although opioids continue to dominate the chronic pain market, adverse events associated with the drug such as the potential for abuse mean the treatment space is rife with unmet needs, which is encouraging pharmaceutical companies to explore innovative alternatives to opioids.
Our latest report states that while opioids remain the most effective modes of treatment, their potential for abuse has yet to be addressed, and thus their effectiveness is limited in chronic pain conditions, as they cannot be used for prolonged durations.
One of the publishers analysts states that: Moderate-to-severe pain has been and continues to be dominated by opioids, which are increasingly being reformulated to offer abuse resistance, whereas mild pain is effectively being treated with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID).
However, significant unmet needs remain, as chronic pain subtypes - and particularly neuropathic pain - often do not respond well to existing therapies, which do not align well with the underlying molecular pathophysiological causes of pain.
While the pain therapeutics pipeline is extremely large and diverse, it is characterized by a high overall historic clinical attrition rate for novel analgesics, and a low level of first-in-class innovation.
The active pain pipeline is populated by 810 products across all stages of development, which exhibit a highly diverse range of molecular targets. GBI Research's analyses identified 129 first-in-class programs in active development, constituting 20% of the pipeline for which there is a disclosed molecular target, and acting on 80 first-in-class molecular targets.
