A comprehensive examination of 5 CNS therapy areas: multiple sclerosis multiple sclerosis (MS), chronic, slowly progressive autoimmune disease in which the body's immune system attacks the protective myelin sheaths that surround the nerve cells of the brain and spinal cord (a process called demyelination), resulting in damaged areas , Parkinson's disease Parkinson's disease or Parkinsonism, degenerative brain disorder first described by the English surgeon James Parkinson in 1817. When there is no known cause, the disease usually appears after age 40 and is referred to as Parkinson's disease. , Alzheimer's disease Alzheimer's disease (ăls`hī'mərz, ôls–), degenerative disease of nerve cells in the cerebral cortex that leads to atrophy of the brain and senile dementia. , schizophrenia schizophrenia (skĭt'səfrē`nēə), group of severe mental disorders characterized by reality distortions resulting in unusual thought patterns and behaviors.  and depression.

The majority of companies focus on a diverse range of CNS disorders attempting to address unmet clinical need and large patient populations. However, in some markets such as MS, a handful of companies dominate the market, whilst in AD and PD there are many players, including biotechnology biotechnology, the use of biological processes, as through the exploitation and manipulation of living organisms or biological systems, in the development or manufacture of a product or in the technological solution to a problem.  and biopharmaceutical companies, where large specialist sales forces may not be necessary to promote novel medicines.

Thorough research, hard-hitting opinion and year-by-year forecasts

This report provides a complete review of the markets, products and pipeline prospects for 5 key CNS areas.

Firstly, the individual markets, the major players, treatment drivers, market resistors, potential patient populations and unmet clinical needs have been analysed, in addition to which, many therapies and pipeline products currently in Phase II and III development have been evaluated.

Secondly, we have reviewed each of the leading brands and potential new brands and identified their key attributes, based on a number of criteria including:

-- Novelty/rationale for mechanism of action.

-- Proof of concept/clinical data.

-- Management/clinical expertise.

-- Competition within the marketplace/gaining share of voice through marketing, advertising and sales force ability.

-- Risks associated with developing a drug within a therapeutic class.

Thirdly, we have established a competitor ratio analysis based on each of the criteria mentioned above. Each criterion attracts an award of up to 10 points, with a maximum score of 50, thus enabling the establishment of an Espicom "ranking table" in each segment of the market, dependent on the drug/company's relative attributes and enabling comparison across therapy areas.

, based on the competitor ratio analysis of each therapeutic section, we have been able to draw conclusions as to which CNS therapy areas receive R&D focus from the leading pharmaceutical companies and which therapy areas are most likely to result in product launches by 2014.

Multiple sclerosis

With the launch of up to 12 new disease-modifying agents, three vaccines and one novel drug designed to treat the symptoms of multiple sclerosis (MS) and improve quality of life, the MS market is in an exciting phase of evolution.

Alzheimer's disease

By 2014, there will be considerable change in the Alzheimer's disease (AD) market due to generic competition, better utilisation of acetylcholinesterase inhibitors acetylcholinesterase inhibitor

 and new product launches which, for the first time, will treat the condition and not the symptoms.

Some atypical anti-psychotics are FDA approved for use in the treatment of schizophrenia.  now account for over 80% of global sales, concerns over safety are leading to a slow down in growth.
