Parkinson’s disease is a chronic neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressively worsening motor symptoms. Treatment of Parkinson’s disease in China comprises a broad range of symptomatic therapies including, dopamine precursors, dopamine agonists, MAO-B inhibitors, and COMT inhibitors. The expected imminent approval of safinamide—the third-to-market MAO-B inhibitor—and LY03003—the reformulation of rotigotine, a dopamine agonist, that offers a more convenient once-weekly dosing advantage—have the potential to meaningfully change the treatment paradigm of Parkinson’s disease in China. The uptake of these therapies, in addition to the growing aging-led prevalence of the disease in the country, will lead to significant growth of the Parkinson’s disease market of China during the 2021-2031 period. Additionally, in view of the ongoing reforms in China’s regulatory and access and reimbursement landscape, multinational companies will be increasingly encouraged to enter this market.
