2019 Market Spotlight on Sickle Cell Anemia – ResearchAndMarkets.com

June 18, 2019 Off By BusinessWire

DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The “Market
Spotlight: Sickle Cell Anemia”
report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s
offering.

This Market Spotlight report covers the sickle cell anemia market,
comprising key marketed and pipeline drugs, clinical trials, recent
events and analyst opinion, upcoming and regulatory events, patent
information, probability of success, a 10-year disease prevalence
forecast, and licensing and acquisition deals.

Key Takeaways

  • The author estimates that in 2017, there were 3.2 million prevalent
    cases of sickle cell anemia worldwide, and forecasts that number to
    increase to 3.5 million prevalent cases by 2026.
  • Africa is estimated to have had 2.7 million prevalent cases of sickle
    cell anemia in 2017, accounting for 85% of worldwide cases. The
    approved drugs in the sickle cell anemia space predominantly target
    fetal hemoglobin, with the exception of Endari, which targets
    nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. These drugs are administered via
    the oral route.
  • The largest proportion of industry-sponsored drugs in active clinical
    development for sickle cell anemia are in Phase II. Therapies in
    development for sickle cell anemia focus on a wide variety of targets.
    Pipeline drugs are administered via the intravenous or oral routes,
    with two products also being tested in subcutaneous formulations.
  • High-impact upcoming events in the sickle cell anemia space comprise
    an expected CHMP opinion for Endari, a pre-NDA meeting with the FDA
    for Voxelotor, topline Phase III trial results for Rivipansel, and
    topline Phase II trial results for Olinciguat.
  • The overall likelihood of approval of a Phase I hematology asset is
    29.4%, and the average probability a drug advances from Phase III is
    75.9%. Drugs, on average, take 8.9 years from Phase I to approval in
    the overall hematology space.
  • There have been 11 licensing and asset acquisition deals involving
    sickle cell anemia drugs during 2014-19. The $2,520m strategic
    research collaboration deal signed in 2015 between Vertex
    Pharmaceuticals and CRISPR Therapeutics for the discovery and
    development of drugs based on CRISPR-Cas9 technology was the largest
    deal.
  • The distribution of clinical trials across Phase I-IV indicates that
    the majority of trials for sickle cell anemia have been in the early
    and mid-phases of development, with 79% of trials in Phase I-II, and
    only 21% in Phase III-IV.
  • The US has a substantial lead in the number of sickle cell anemia
    clinical trials globally. The UK leads the major EU markets, while
    Lebanon has the top spot in Asia.
  • Clinical trial activity in the sickle cell anemia space is dominated
    by completed trials. Global Blood Therapeutics and Pfizer have the
    highest number of completed clinical trials for sickle cell anemia,
    with eight trials each.
  • Global Blood Therapeutics leads industry sponsors with the highest
    number of clinical trials for sickle cell anemia, followed by Novartis.
