HONG KONG, March 2 /PRNewswire/ - Today, www.WorldStreetFundamentals.com released its report highlighting development-stage pharmaceutical companies, including RXi Pharmaceuticals Corporation (NASDAQ: RXII) and Poniard Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: PARD). Global pharmaceutical market sales are expected to grow at a 4 - 7% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) through 2013, largely driven via growing access to health-care in emerging economic regions.

Significant shifts within the global pharmaceutical market are on the horizon, with trends growing towards the Asia-Pacific region. A favorable regulatory environment has started to emerge in India, China, Malaysia, South Korea and Indonesia; drawing the attention of larger API product providers. This new competition within an already fast-paced economy has closed the gap between product cost and disposable income of consumers - a change that is expected to drive long-term growth within the global marketplace.

The US market remains the largest pharmaceutical market in the world, and as such, is expected to fuel shot-term growth within the sector. Large focus on R&D in biotechnology, special drugs and generic drugs will remain a strong catalyst to meet 2011 targets of $315 billion dollar in sales volume within the United States alone.
