Postoperative Pain | Unmet Need | US/FR/DE/UK | 2021

Postoperative pain is one of the key segments comprising the larger market for acute pain therapies. It has experienced strong growth over the past decade owing to the uptake of Pacira BioSciences’ Exparel in the United States. Nevertheless, unmet need remains for potent postoperative pain therapies that are not opioid analgesics and that can stave off persistent pain. Emerging therapies for moderate to severe postoperative pain will have to demonstrate convincing efficacy, safety, and convenience in multiple well-designed clinical trials and have these advantages translate into clinical practice. Given generic analgesics’ low price, wide availability, and entrenched position in the first-line treatment of postoperative pain, market access will be challenging for emerging postoperative pain therapies unless a strong value proposition is made.

QUESTIONS ANSWERED

  • What are the treatment drivers and goals for moderate to severe postoperative pain?
  • What drug attributes are key influences, which have limited impact, and which are hidden opportunities?
  • How do current therapies perform on key treatment drivers and goals for moderate to severe postoperative pain?
  • What are the prevailing areas of unmet need and market opportunity in moderate to severe postoperative pain?
  • What trade-offs are acceptable to U.S. and European anesthesiologists for a hypothetical moderate to severe postoperative pain drug?
