Parkinson’s Disease and Behavioral Complications – PD Therapies Dominate First-In-Class Pipeline, With Novel Target Classes Demonstrating Potential Disease-Modifying Effects
Powered by
All the vital news, analysis, and commentary curated by our industry experts.
Parkinson’s disease (PD), a progressive neurological disorder that affects movement control, is associated with considerable quality of life impairments and burden of care, particularly in the advanced disease stages. Cognitive and behavioral complications of PD are common. PD-associated dementia and PD-associated psychosis are both highly prevalent and associated with a large disease burden.
There is a pressing unmet need within PD, PD-associated dementia, and PD-associated psychosis for more effective disease-modifying pharmacotherapies. Although current therapies can provide patients with symptomatic relief, there are no commercially available agents capable of preventing or slowing the course of PD or its behavioral complications. This report assesses innovation within the pipeline for PD and its behavioral complications.
Scope
The PD pipeline is large, with 456 programs in active development. Far fewer products are in development for the behavioral complications of PD. There are 16 products in development for PD-associated dementia and six products in development for PD-associated psychosis. What proportion of these products across PD and PD behavioral complications are first in class? How does first-in-class innovation vary by development stage and molecular target class?
Innovative molecular target groups identified in the pipeline include immunomodulators, neuroprotectants, and protein misfolding and aggregation. Which molecular target classes are prominently represented in the overall and first-in-class pipelines for PD and PD behavioral complications?
There are 351 companies active across PD and PD behavioral complications. Which companies have the most first-in-class assets in development? Which companies are highly active in terms of licensing and co-development deals for first-in-class innovation?
Reasons to Buy
Understand the current disease landscape with an in-depth discussion of etiology, pathophysiology, disease classification and staging systems, epidemiology, and marketed therapies for PD. Overviews of PD-associated dementia and PD-associated psychosis are also provided.
Analyze the pipelines for PD, PD-associated dementia, and PD-associated psychosis, and stratify them by stage of development, molecule type, and molecular target.
Assess the therapeutic potential of first-in-class molecular targets. Using proprietary matrix assessments, first-in-class molecular targets for PD and PD-associated dementia have been assessed and ranked according to clinical potential. A matrix assessment is not provided for PD-associated psychosis due to a lack of first-in-class innovation. Promising first-in-class targets for PD and PD-associated dementia have been reviewed in greater detail.
Analyze company strategies in prior deals through case studies of key deals for PD first-in-class products, and recognize commercial opportunities by identifying first-in-class pipeline products that have not yet been involved in licensing or co-development deals.
