Parkinson’s Disease – Unmet Need – Detailed, Expanded Analysis: Adjunctive Therapies For Motor Fluctuations
For the abstract please provide an overview paragraph here and then fill in the bulleted sections below. Feel free to modify the bulleted section. Leverage content from a brochure if you have one.
Although motor fluctuations in Parkinson’s disease (PD) can be managed effectively in early stages of the disease, today’s treatment paradigm is suboptimal owing to considerable pill burden, a risk of motor and nonmotor complications associated with dopaminergic therapy, and a progressive loss of efficacy. In response, the pipeline for therapies targeting motor fluctuations has swelled. With the recent launch of first-in-class A2A receptor antagonist Nourianz, as well as other newer-to-market brands like Xadago and Ongentys, understanding the drivers of clinical decision-making for treating motor fluctuations and prescriber perceptions of approved options will help innovators identify levers for new product positioning and differentiation in this evolving market niche.
QUESTIONS ANSWERED
- What are the treatment drivers and goals for motor fluctuations in PD?
- 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 motor fluctuations in PD?
- What are the prevailing areas of unmet need and opportunity in motor fluctuations in PD?
- What trade-offs across different clinical attributes and price are acceptable to U.S. and European neurologists for a hypothetical new motor fluctuations in PD drug?
