June 19, 2019 Off By BusinessWire

DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The “Market
Spotlight: Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)”
report has been
added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.

This Market Spotlight report covers the irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)
market, comprising key pipeline and marketed drugs, clinical trials,
upcoming regulatory events, patent information, a 10-year disease
prevalence forecast, and licensing and acquisition deals, as well as
presenting drug-specific revenue forecasts

Key Takeaways

  • The report estimates that in 2017, there were approximately 766
    million prevalent cases of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) in those
    aged 15 years and over worldwide, and forecasts that number to
    increase to 843 million prevalent cases by 2026.
  • The approved drugs in the IBS space target chloride channel 2, calcium
    channel, serotonin 5-HT3 receptor, guanylyl cyclase c receptor, opioid
    receptors, gram-negative bacteria, and RNA polymerase. These drugs are
    administered via the oral route.
  • Half of the industry-sponsored drugs in active clinical development
    for IBS are in Phase II, with only one drug in the NDA/BLA phase.
  • Therapies in mid- and late-stage development for IBS focus on a wide
    variety of targets. The majority of the pipeline drugs are
    administered via the oral route, with only one drug being tested in a
    rectal formulation.
  • High-impact upcoming events for drugs in the IBS space comprise
    topline Phase III trial results for Linzess and expected PDUFA dates
    for Zelnorm and Tenapanor.
  • The overall likelihood of approval of a Phase I gastroenterology (non
    inflammatory bowel disease)-other asset is 22.5%, and the average
    probability a drug advances from Phase III is 66.7%. Drugs, on
    average, take 10.1 years from Phase I to approval, compared to 9.9
    years in the overall gastroenterology (non inflammatory bowel disease)
    space.
  • There have been 21 licensing and asset acquisition deals involving IBS
    drugs during 2013-18. The $2,905m research, development,
    collaboration, and license agreement signed in 2017 between Allergan
    and Assembly Biosciences for the worldwide rights to Assembly’s
    microbiome GI development programs was the largest deal.
  • The distribution of clinical trials across Phase I-IV indicates that
    the majority of trials for IBS have been in the early and midphases of
    development, with 66% of trials in Phase I-II, and only 34% in Phase
    III-IV.
  • The US has a substantial lead in the number of IBS clinical trials
    globally. The UK leads the major EU markets, while Japan has the top
    spot in Asia.
  • Clinical trial activity in the IBS space is dominated by completed
    trials. GlaxoSmithKline has the highest number of completed clinical
    trials for IBS, with 37 trials.
  • Allergan leads industry sponsors with the highest number of clinical
    trials for IBS, followed by GlaxoSmithKline and Novartis
