Title: Pain-Identifying and Commercializing Market:First-in-Class Innovation
1Frontier Pharma Pain-Identifying and
Commercializing Market (First-in-Class
Innovation)
2Summary
- Large and Innovative Pipeline
- The active pain pipeline is populated by 796
products across all stages of development, which
exhibit a highly diverse range of molecular
targets. GBI Researchs analyses identified 122
first-in-class programs in active development,
constituting 13.6 of the pipeline and acting on
65 first-in-class molecular targets, indicating a
high degree of innovation. - Despite being mostly distributed in the early
stages of development, first-in-class innovation
is particularly concentrated on novel molecular
targets that are aligned to the central
sensitization associated with neuropathic pain,
which is arguably the most debilitating and
difficult-to-treat type of chronic pain. This
gives them the potential to transform the future
market by expanding the range of drug classes. - Read The Full Report On http//www.bigmarketrese

3Report Description
- This is in stark contrast to the pain
therapeutics market, which has been largely
characterized by only incremental product
innovation over the last decade, as most market
segments continue to be dominated by
long-established active pharmaceutical
ingredients and the concomitant mechanisms of
action. Moderate-to-severe pain continues to be
dominated by opioids that are increasingly being
reformulated to offer abuse-resistance, while
mild pain is effectively treated with
Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAID). - However, significant unmet needs remain, as
chronic pain and some neuropathic pain subtypes
do not respond well to existing therapies, which
are not adequate to treat associated
hypersensitization and do not align to the
underlying molecular pathophysiological
profile.Encouragingly, these first-in-class
compounds often target molecules which are
strongly implicated in pain and its associated
signaling pathways. Although there are
significant differentiations in the scientific
rationale and clinical prospects across these
first-in-class products, the majority demonstrate
significant Preclinical evidence and alignment to
molecular pathophysiological changes
4Key Segment
Highly Diversified Range of Innovative Programs
in Early Pipeline and in Granted Patents Pain is
a complex and multifaceted disorder with a
complex interplay between different pathological
processes, and different pain subtypes exhibit
distinct underlying etiologies and
pathophysiologies. While technological advances
and extensive research efforts have furthered the
understanding of these complex underpinnings,
gaps remain. However, these insights have
translated into the expanding pool of novel
therapeutic targets, as reflected by the highly
innovative pipeline. GBI Researchs proprietary
analysis shows that early-stage, first-in-class
programs exhibit a higher level of diversity with
respect to novel therapeutic targets. The
significant diversity in terms of targets is a
reflection of the complex underpinnings of
distinct pain subtypes. Although the pipeline
continues to feature established therapies, the
range of mechanisms of action employed by novel
compounds is extremely diverse, with the vast
majority residing in the Preclinical stage. This
innovation and diversity is maintained throughout
the pipeline from early- to late-stage
development, although the degree of innovation
diminishes from Phase II. Additionally, although
NSAIDs and opioids remain the cornerstone of pain
treatment, GBI Research analysis indicates a
shift towards pain subtypes that are more
difficult to treat.
5Key Segment
- In addition, GBI Researchs comprehensive and
complementary analysis of granted patents
highlighted a significant number of
first-in-class product technologies, many of
which have not been identified in the pain
product pipelines or even in pipelines across the
industry. The distribution of these products
across the molecular target superfamilies and
families highlighted that they predominantly
align with the proportional distribution observed
across the pain pipeline, with G-protein-coupled
receptors and enzymes inhibitors constituting the
two major categories. However, an array of novel
molecular targets within those groups has been
identified, which do not present in any pipeline
or marketed products across the industry. A
significant degree of innovation has also been
identified in other molecular target categories. - Active Deals Landscape with Numerous Investment
Opportunities - The pain deals landscape has been highly active
over the past eight years, with 261 licensing
deals and 112 co-development deals. However,
despite high levels of investment activity, deals
for first-in-class products have been relatively
rare.
6Key Market
- Overall, more than 50 of deals involving
first-in-class targets were settled in the early
stages of development, which is a striking
contrast with non-first-in-class products, which
are more frequently entered into deals in the
later stages of development. This reflects
companies willingness to invest despite the
high-risk profile of first-in-class products. - With 107 first-in-class products available for
strategic consolidations, a wide variety of
investment opportunities are available for
licensing deals or co-development deals in pain.
This will be encouraged by the growing unmet need
for chronic pain therapies, and an increased
understanding of the distinct underlying
pathophysiologies of distinct pain sub-types,
allowed by technological advances. Among these,
some first-in-class products have demonstrated
promising Preclinical evidence and have
significant potential to become game-changing
products, representing high-reward investments. - To Get More Details Enquire _at_ http//www.bigmarket
