Type 2 Diabetes – Unmet Need – Detailed, Expanded Analysis: Injectables (US/EU)
The type 2 diabetes (T2D) therapy market is expected to expand, fueled by a rich pipeline of agents. However, growth will be tempered because these emerging therapies will be predominantly later-to-market entrants of existing drug classes or combination treatments. Notable market growth is expected from the sodium glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors and the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists due to their efficacy in glycemic control and weight loss and demonstration of cardiovascular (CV) benefits, although they will face reimbursement hurdles and an increasingly stringent regulatory environment. Consequently, a high unmet need exists for affordable drugs that can safely and effectively control T2D in the long term.
QUESTIONS ANSWERED
- How do endocrinologists rate current T2D drug classes such as the DPP-IV inhibitors, SGLT-2 inhibitors, and GLP-1 receptor agonists as well as long-acting, short-acting, and rapid-acting insulins?
- What drug attributes are key influencers, which have limited impact, and which are hidden opportunities?
- What trade-offs across different clinical attributes and prices are needed from new antidiabetic drugs in order to be preferred by endocrinologists?
- Is an injectable drug with CV benefits preferable to an oral drug offering stronger glycemic control? Discover the answer with DRG’s fully customizable Target Product Profile (TPP) simulator.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Unmet Need supports clinical development decisions by identifying key attributes and assessing areas of unmet need for a specific disease or subpopulation. Based on surveys with U.S. and European physicians, this report provides insight into key treatment drivers and goals, the performance of current therapies, and the remaining commercial opportunities. Two market scenarios are profiled in detail by DRG experts, and additional customized market scenarios can be evaluated with the corresponding TPP simulator.
