Osteoarthritic Pain – Landscape & Forecast – Disease Landscape & Forecast

OA pain is the second largest segment of the overall chronic pain market, affecting more than 90 million patients in the G7. The OA pain market represents a lucrative opportunity for drug developers given the persistent unmet need for more effective and safe therapies, particularly those with a novel and distinct mechanism of action that strongly correlates with the nature of this type of pain. OA pain is predominantly treated with cost-effective generic NSAIDs and opioid analgesics, although branded agents such as costly abuse-deterrent reformulations of opioid analgesics, new combinations of existing NSAIDs that attempt to mitigate side effects, and intra-articular injections are also frequently prescribed in later lines of therapy. Emerging therapies, such as biological drugs from Pfizer / Eli Lilly and Regeneron / Teva / Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma targeting NGF, and the increasing number of patients diagnosed with OA pain due to lifestyle influences will be key drivers for growth through 2028.

Questions answered:

  • How do interviewed experts perceive the OA pain marketplace to be changing given the emphasis on the risk of abuse / misuse with opioid analgesics?
  • What effect will the recent launches of new analgesics such as Flexion Therapeutics' Zilretta and Iroko’s Vivlodex continue to have on the treatment paradigm?
  • What will the impact of a new drug class, the anti-NGF biologics, be on the treatment landscape given their demonstrably robust efficacy tempered by lingering concerns about safety issues seen in clinical trials?
