This report offers insight into R&D trends in the cardiovascular market, including the discontinuation of key pipeline drugs such as Pfizer’s torcetrapib and atorvastatin, and the development of new drug classes including Novartis’ Rasilez (aliskiren), anticipated to be the first to market direct renin inhibitor.
Use this report to identify the leading cardiovascular companies to 2011 and discover the cardiovascular blockbusters of the future.
Key findings of the report…
-Anti-hypertensives have been the highest selling portion of the cardiovascular market in 2005. Norvasc was the leading anti-hypertensive drug in 2005, with sales of $5bn, an increase of 3.9% from 2004.
-In 2006 the patents protecting Zocor and Pravachol expired, which together with the anticipated patent expiry of Lipitor in 2010, will result in a flood of generic statins onto the market, heavily impacting sales of branded drugs.
-Two key anti-hypertensives are forecast to launch in 2007: Novartis’ Rasilez (aliskiren) and Exforge (valsartan plus amlodipine). Exforge gained FDA approval in December 2006 and is predicted to generate high sales.
-Pfizer’s torcetrapib and atorvastatin was discontinued in late 2006 due to safety concerns. The discontinuation of torcetrapib will have an impact on the other members of the CETP inhibitor pipeline drugs, in particular Roche’s JTT-705.
-Pfizer is the leading global cardiovascular company, with sales of nearly $20bn in 2005, representing 15.6% of the cardiovascular market.
