Dysmenorrhea Therapeutics Market to Show Low Value Growth until 2018.The report also provides insights on the prevalent competitive landscape and the emerging players expected to significantly alter the market positioning of the current market leaders

GlobalData estimates that the global dysmenorrhea therapeutics market was valued at $4.1 billion in 2010 and is forecast to grow at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 2% over the next eight years to reach $4.8 billion by 2018. This low value growth in the dysmenorrhea therapeutics market is primarily attributed to the high usage of low priced OTC (Over-The-Counter) and off-label drugs and the low penetration of the patented product Celebrex (celecoxib). However, an increase in the patient population will be the primary contributor to the growth of the market in the forecast period.
 
GlobalData has found that the dysmenorrhea therapeutics market has a low unmet need, which implies
that the market is well-served by the current marketed products and that potential market entry for new drugs is limited. The current dysmenorrhea treatment options are mainly dominated by OTC, off-label and generic drugs which have high safety and efficacy profiles and capture a large market share.
 
However, the residual unmet need can be satisfied by novel therapies which will provide better
symptomatic relief than the current marketed products.
 
GlobalData’s analysis indicates that there will be not a significant change in the future landscape of the
dysmenorrhea therapeutics market. This is mainly attributed to the established treatment therapies, which include generics, OTC and off-label drugs that are successfully meeting market demand. The other factor is the weak pipeline with only a few first-in-class molecules in early stages of development. However, the few therapies in the pipeline that are expected to enter the market are me-too and generic products which will simply add to the existing competition in the market. This is expected to lead to a static market with products fighting for market share.

GlobalData analysis shows that the dysmenorrhea therapeutics pipeline is weak with only eight molecules in different phases of development. There are five first-in-class molecules which are in the early stage of development; meaning that they are not expected to impact the market during the forecast period to 2018. The late stage pipeline does not have any molecules with novel mechanisms of action that may impact upon market. NPC-01, the only product in the late stage clinical development, is being developed for endometriosis associated dysmenorrhea and is not expected to significantly impact upon the overall dysmenorrheal market.
