Research and analysis highlights
The respiratory market is dominated by seven multinational drug companies, with combined 2004 revenues of $18.7bn representing 73% of total sales. GlaxoSmithKline is the global leader with 2004 sales in excess of $7bn, over $4.5 billion higher than the nearest rival, Merck.
The asthma/COPD market is expected to reach $18.1bn by 2015, with sales shifting towards COPD, which will account for 42% of revenues, following the launch of new products. Roughly 50% of asthma/COPD sales will result from products currently in development, largely replacing sales lost through the patent expiries of Advair/Seretide and Singulair.
The most significant launches over the next ten years will be GSK's once-daily inhaled corticosteroid/long-acting beta-2 agonist combination "Super Advair", Novartis' long-acting, dual-action bronchodilator combination product, GSK's novel intranasal corticosteroid, Allermist and Merck's Singulair/PG-D2 combination product.
