Sjögren’s Syndrome | Niche & Rare Disease Landscape & Forecast | US/EU5 | 2022

Sjögren’s syndrome (SS) is a progressive autoimmune disease characterized by chronic inflammation and lymphocytic infiltration of the exocrine glands; the disease may occur alone (primary SS) or with a comorbid autoimmune condition (secondary SS). Symptomatic therapies to treat dry eyes, dry mouth, and/or specific extraglandular manifestations are the cornerstone of disease management. Systemic manifestations are most often treated with hydroxychloroquine or, in severe cases, systemic immunomodulators (e.g., azathioprine, methotrexate). Therapies with disease-modifying potential are in development for SS (e.g., Novartis’s iscalimab and ianalumab), targeting key pathways believed to drive pathological processes in the disease. These putative disease-modifying therapies have the potential to transform the management of SS, although SS is an indication in which such success has historically been a challenge.

Questions answered

• How large is the SS population and how will its size change over time?
• How is SS currently managed? What are the current treatments, and what drives their use?
• Which unfulfilled clinical needs are the most pressing?
• Which pipeline products are the most promising, and what sales might they garner in the SS market? What therapies of note are progressing in earlier phases?
• What clinical roles will Novartis’s iscalimab and ianalumab play in the evolving SS treatment landscape?
• What are the drivers of and constraints in the SS market, and how will the market evolve through 2031?
