Understand Unmet Needs in the Migraine Market Based on Key Opinion Leader Comments.


DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c68792) has announced the addition of Pipeline Insight: Migraine - Innovation Essential as Weak Late-stage Pipeline Fails to Hold off the Impact of Triptan Patent Expiries to their offering.

After the launch of Trexima in 2007, triptan genericization coupled with a weak late-stage pipeline will result in a major shift in market dynamics, and will result in the migraine market value decreasing to $3.2 billion in 2015. The market remains receptive to superior prophylactics however, with innovation being essential for the progression of the acute market, post-triptan era.

Scope of this title:

- Analysis of patient potential, unmet needs and clinical trial design in migraine

- Overview of drugs in preregistration pre·reg·is·tra·tion  
n.
An early registration, as for returning college students, that takes place before general registration.
, Phase III Noun 1. phase III - a large clinical trial of a treatment or drug that in phase I and phase II has been shown to be efficacious with tolerable side effects; after successful conclusion of these clinical trials it will receive formal approval from the FDA , II and I; with analysis of key companies involved in the R&D pipeline

- Detailed profiles of key compounds in development for use in migraine, with forecasts of drug revenues to 2015

- Discussion of GSK GSK GlaxoSmithKline plc (pharmaceutical company)
GSK Glycogen Synthase Kinase
GSK Gruppentraining Sozialer Kompetenzen (Germany)
GSK Greenland Shark (FAO fish species code) 
 and Pozens strategies and insight from key industry opinion leaders

Highlights of this title:

- Due to Imitrexs commercial success, GSK is the current migraine market leader. Trexima, co-developed by GSK and Pozen represents GSK's product line extension for its migraine franchise, but approval delays and the impending im·pend
