Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease | Access and Reimbursement | US | 2017
Current market-leading therapies in the U.S. COPD market will face challenges from emerging drugs, especially generic versions of Spiriva, Symbicort, and Advair. Surveyed physicians often report that familiarity is a key driver of drug selection within a class, but clinical factors are significant both for physicians and MCOs. Cost-control measures are critical for MCOs, and have a moderate impact on prescribing decisions.
Pharmacoeconomic data are anticipated to be of increasing importance, especially with the launch of additional therapies within the LABA/LAMA class and the new LABA/LAMA/ICS FDC class.
