Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) Therapeutics - 5EU Drug Forecast and Market Analysis to 2024

Summary

Chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a serious chronic liver disease caused by the failure of viral clearance following acute HBV infection. Despite the availability of effective prophylactic vaccines, the disease remains a serious global health concern, with estimated over 350 million people worldwide currently living with this condition. In addition, patients with chronic hepatitis B are at a high risk of developing life-threatening complications including liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In 2010, an estimated 786,000 HBV-related deaths occurred worldwide.

Available treatment for chronic hepatitis B focuses on viral suppression, and include oral nucleos(t)ide analogues (NAs) and pegylated interferon (PEG-IFN). The two therapy classes have distinctive strengths and weaknesses. Nevertheless, most patients are using long-term NA treatment, and suffer from issues such as high accumulated treatment cost and low compliance.

The chronic hepatitis B therapeutics market in the 5EU was valued at $532.1m in 2014. The anticipated arrival of novel branded therapies will be the strongest market driver in the 5EU during the forecast period. These therapies include Gilead’s TAF, a novel NA, along with three adjunct therapies, Arrowhead’s ARC-520, Gilead’s GS-9620, and Gilead’s GS-4774. GlobalData projects these four products will receive licensure in the 5EU in 2017, 2021, 2021, and 2023, respectively.
