Traditionally, patients suffering from MS in China have been treated with two disease-modifying therapies (DMTs)\u2014IFN-\u03b2-1b (Bayer\u2019s Betaferon) and teriflunomide (Sanofi\u2019s Aubagio)\u2014and immunosuppressants such as methotrexate, mitoxantrone, rituximab, and azathioprine. The National Medical Products Administration is focused on granting fast-track designation to new therapies that address urgent clinical need in China, thus allowing such agents to move directly to the market-filing stage based on foreign clinical trial data, especially in the case of rare diseases. Recent inclusions of two S1PR modulators\u2014fingolimod (Novartis\u2019s Gilenya) and siponimod (Novartis\u2019s Mayzent)\u2014in the 2020 National Reimbursement Drug List will drive the uptake of these agents for MS in China, thus boosting overall market sales.<\/p>\n<p><strong>QUESTIONS ANSWERED<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>How large is China\u2019s drug-treatable MS population, and how will the drug-treatment rate change during the forecast period?<\/li>\n<li>Which are the most commercially relevant drugs in China\u2019s MS market and why?
