DUBLIN, Aug. 05, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/ms8f4n/sustained_release) has announced the addition of the "Sustained Release Ocular Drug Delivery Systems, 2015 - 2025 (2nd edition)" report to their offering.
The Sustained Release Ocular Drug Delivery Systems, 2015 - 2025 (2nd edition)' report provides an extensive study of the emerging market of implants and particulate drug delivery systems (DDS) for ophthalmic diseases. The focus of this study is on commercial implants and those under development, their applications and the likely mid-term and long-term evolution. It is widely anticipated that such drug delivery systems have tremendous potential as they provide improved retention time compared to topical applications and offer convenience over regular intravitreal injections, mainly for posterior eye diseases.
The report covers various aspects such as technological progress, product pipeline, target indications, industry and academic research programs to assess new evolving opportunities. We have provided a competitive spider web analysis to compare different implants based on technical parameters (drug elution rate, amount of drug delivered, life of implant etc.) and their likely user friendliness. Our opinion and insights, presented in this study, were influenced by the discussions that we conducted with different ophthalmic implant developers in this industry.
The base year for the report is 2014. The report provides market forecasts for the following two time horizons: 2015 - 2020 and 2020 - 2025. In addition to the above, we have also provided our own independent perspective on the key drivers behind the growth of this market, likely challenges and potential threats. The research, analysis and insights presented in this report include the sales potential of various marketed and late stage pipeline ocular sustained drug delivery systemsbased on the current expected launch timelines, adoption rates and the estimated end-use price points.The figures mentioned in this report are in USD, unless otherwise specified.
Highlights:
- More than 25 companies are currently working on developing sustained release drug delivery systems for the treatment of ocular indications. Examples of some key players include pSivida, Allergan, Ocular Therapeutix, Neurotech Pharmaceuticals, Icon BioScience and GrayBug.
- Vitrasert, launched in 1996, was the first ocular implant. It was, however, taken off the market in 2013. Only three more implants have received regulatory approval since 1996; these are Retisert, Ozurdex and Iluvien.
- Majority of the systems (52%) are in preclinical stage of development. Over 10 systems are currently undergoing late stage clinical trial studies. Once approved, these inserts are likely to provide a major impetus to the overall market.
- DME and Uveitis will provide the much needed boost to the sustained release ocular drug delivery systems market in the short-term. In the mid to long term, the growth will be fostered by launch of sustained release systems for glaucoma and AMD. In fact, more than 15 sustained release formulations are under development for the treatment of glaucoma.
- Interest of venture capital firms, licensing/ partnership opportunities will continue to act as key growth drivers of this market. During our research, we identified several instances where venture capitalists and other strategic investors have actively supported the research efforts.
- The overall market is likely to be more than USD 6.5 billion in the coming decade. The opportunity could be much higher in the outer years, especially driven by the regulatory approval of implants for delivery of biologics.
