NEW YORK, May 27, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- PharmaPoint: Systemic Lupus Erythematosus and Lupus Nephritis - Global Drug Forecast and Market Analysis to 2022 - Event-Driven Update

Summary

The lupus therapeutics market is dominated by generics and GlaxoSmithKline's Benlysta is the only drug that has gained marketing approval for SLE in more than 50 years. Following Benlysta's launch, patients' uptake has remained low, but due to its associated high price-tag Benlysta has managed to grow the lupus market in terms of value and is currently the top-selling drug in this market, having generated approximately $265.6m in 2014 in the seven major markets. There is high R&D activity for the development of new therapies for lupus and seven promising biological therapies have the potential to enter the SLE and LN market during the 2012-2022 forecast period. The introduction of new biologic drugs will shape the future competitive landscape and drive growth in the SLE and LN markets.
