Tysabri, Avonex, Copaxone Multiple Sclerosis Market Analysis 2022

RnRMarketResearch.com adds “Copaxone (Multiple Sclerosis) – Forecast and Market Analysis to 2022” “Avonex (Multiple Sclerosis) – Forecast and Market Analysis to 2022” & “Tysabri (Multiple Sclerosis) – Forecast and Market Analysis to 2022”new report on its database.

PharmaPoint Drug Evaluation report, “Tysabri, Avonex, Copaxone (Multiple Sclerosis) – Forecast and Market Analysis to 2022”. Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, inflammatory neurological disorder characterized pathologically by demyelination, axonal transection and neurodegeneration within the central nervous system. With curative therapy still elusive, current disease management is dependent on life-long pharmacotherapy with disease-modifying therapies (DMT). The dominance of first-line injectable DMTs, including the interferon beta (IFNß) agents: Bayer’s Betaseron/Betaferon (IFNß-1b), Biogen’s Avonex (IFNß-1a) and Merck’s Rebif (IFNß-1a), and Teva’s Copaxone (glatiramer acetate), has been a salient feature of the MS therapeutics market. However, the competitive landscape is undergoing significant change with the emergence of oral therapies, several pipeline products with notable efficacies, and looming generics/biosimilars following the patent expiries of key branded products during the forecast period. In addition, the entry of new companies such as Sanofi/Genzyme and F. Hoffmann-La-Roche/Genentech will challenge the position of the established players in the MS marketplace.

Copaxone Market Analysis to 2022

Teva’s Copaxone (glatiramer acetate; formerly known as copolymer-1) is a synthesized polypeptide mixture containing a random combination of L-lysine, L-glutamic acid, L-alanine and L-tyrosine, the most common amino acids present in myelin basic protein (MBP); a key structural component of the myelin sheath. Having gained FDA approval in 1996 for the first-line treatment of RRMS to reduce the frequency of relapses, Copaxone became the first non- IFNß-based DMT available for MS. Copaxone surpassed Avonex in 2008 as the top-selling MS drug, driven primarily by good tolerability and efficacy that is comparable to the interferon betas. In 2009, the FDA expanded the Copaxone label to include the treatment of patients with CIS, thereby further enhancing the drug’s market share.


Avonex Market Analysis to 2022

Biogen Idec’s Avonex (interferon beta-1a) is an IM-administered immunomodulatory agent indicated for the first-line treatment of RRMS and for individuals presenting with CIS. Avonex was approved by the FDA in 1996 and received Orphan Drug status, giving it market exclusivity for seven years in the US until 2003. Despite the Orphan Drug status of Betaseron that was still in effect at the time, Avonex was granted marketing approval because it was proven to be a different formulation of IFNß to Betaseron.


Tysabri Market Analysis to 2022

Tysabri gained FDA approval in 2004 as a monotherapy for the treatment of RRMS to delay the accumulation of physical disability and reduce the frequency of clinical exacerbations. However, Tysabri was temporarily withdrawn from the market by the manufacturer in 2005 after several reported cases of fatal John Cunningham virus (JCV)-induced progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) in Tysabri-treated patients. Following a safety review, Tysabri was reintroduced into the global markets in 2006 under the special TOUCH restricted distribution program.
