Diabetic Macular Edema/Diabetic Retinopathy | Unmet Need | Diabetic Macular Edema | US/FR/DE/UK | 2021

Diabetic macular edema (DME) represents the second-largest ophthalmology market for intravitreal anti-VEGF therapies, including Roche / Novartis’s Lucentis and Regeneron / Bayer’s market-leading Eylea. Because these therapies require regular injections to be effective, they present a major delivery burden that often impacts patient compliance. The corticosteroid implants Ozurdex (AbbVie) and Iluvien (Alimera Sciences) provide a longer duration of action between doses but are associated with side effects that relegate them to later-line treatment. Therefore, unmet need remains for therapies that provide strong efficacy for improving visual acuity with less-frequent dosing.

QUESTIONS ANSWERED

  • What are the key treatment drivers and goals for DME that influence ophthalmologists’ choice of therapies?
  • What drug attributes are key influences, which have limited impact, and which are hidden opportunities in the DME market?
  • How do ophthalmologists perceive the performance of current therapies on key treatment drivers and goals for DME?
  • What are the prevailing areas of market opportunity in the treatment of DME? Will emerging therapies, such as Novartis’s Beovu or Roche’s faricimab, fulfill these unmet needs?
  • What trade-offs are acceptable to U.S. and European ophthalmologists for a hypothetical DME drug?
