Endometriosis is a gynecological disorder affecting women of childbearing age. This inflammatory condition is characterized by the growth of endometrial tissues outside of the uterus, and can cause chronic painful menstruation, painful intercourse, and infertility. For many women, endometriosis-associated pain can be so debilitating that it affects their ability to perform daily functions and significantly deters their quality of life.
The KOL’s agree patients with endometriosis have significant unmet needs due to the lack of approved treatment options that have both continuous efficacy and a favorable long-term safety profiles. Although the KOLs are optimistic about the potential approval of GnRH antagonists, they still foresee that unmet needs will persist. Being orally active is a major benefit for GnRH antagonists. As such research foresees they will rapidly shift market share away from GnRH agonists. However their price will limit penetration in other patient segments. Ultimately, since none of the marketed, off-label, or pipeline drugs are curative, significant opportunity will remain for safe, efficacious therapies that target the root cause of the condition.
In 2012, the global market was largely dominated by the US, with sales of $1.1bn. Combined sales in the 5EU were estimated to be $137.6m. By 2017, Research forecasts global endometriosis therapeutics sales to grow slowly to $1.2bn at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 0.19%.
