The multiple sclerosis therapeutic agents are intended to promote neurorepair and neuroprotection to prevent disease progression. The disease modifying therapeutics are currently under clinical development to specifically target the disease while avoiding frequent therapeutic administrations. A variety of corticosteroids, immunosuppressants and monoclonal antibodies are approved and recommended to reduce inflammation in multiple sclerosis. The complex nature of disease with its unique individual patient course renders variable clinical outcomes in different patients. Although there is no cure for multiple sclerosis, the currently available therapeutics modify the disease course, accelerate recovery from attacks, and help in managing symptoms.
Market Dynamics
The major factors driving growth of the multiple sclerosis therapeutics market include rise in research and development ultimately leading to the launch of novel drug candidates and the rising prevalence of the condition in children. For instance, in 2014, Plegridy (peginterferon beta-1a) manufactured by Biogen, a disease modifying therapy was approved for the long-term treatment of relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis. According to Multiple Sclerosis Society, approximately five to ten per cent of people with MS experienced their first symptoms before the age of 16. However, the inability of drugs to prevent disease progression and disability, side effects of the approved drugs such as increased risk of infections, flu-like symptoms and progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML), a viral disease of the brain are the factors hindering market growth.
