- CHAPTER 3 MARKET DEFINITION AND OVERVIEW
- Summary
- Market definition for this report
- Current market situation
- Sales and volume use in HBV are increasing steadily
- Key events - Five new drug approvals since 1999 have increased
treatment diversity
- Country market analysis - US is leading the field, while market growth
is strongest in the EU5
- US: New antivirals experience a good uptake in a diverse market
- Japan: Lamivudine takes over from interferon alfa-2b
- EU5: Strong growth driven by adefovir
- Market drivers and restrictors - Disease awareness as the key factor
- Lack of awareness leads to low diagnosis and treatment rates for HBV
infections
- Segmentation of Hepatitis B
- HBV prevalence is highest in adults aged >25 years of age
- Men represent a higher percentage of HBV patients than women
- Sex between men accounts for an increasing percentage of HBV cases
- Immigrants account for the vast majority of infections
- HIV-HBV co-infected patients constitute a significant target population
- Unmet needs in hepatitis B
- A cure for hepatitis B is the key clinical unmet need
- The increasing level of HBV drug resistance is creating a need for
novel therapeutics
- Combination therapy approaches are needed for second- and third-line
therapy
- Market forecast
- The HBV market is set to grow to $1.2 billion by 2012, but will
stagnate afterwards
- Genericization will start in 2010, but its impact will remain limited
- The US will remain leader in sales, whereas Japan will show high
growth in volume use
- CHAPTER 4 PREVENTION AND TREATMENT
- Summary
- Vaccines
- HBV vaccination is recommended in more and more countries
- Plasma-derived vaccines have been replaced by safer, recombinant
products
- Currently available vaccines provide strong protection
- HBV vaccination is widely regarded as safe
- Coverage in most of the 7MM is high
- Currently marketed Hep B vaccines include single-antigen as well as
combination vaccines
- HBV pharmacotherapy
- Serum levels of ALT and HBV DNA are the key factors for treatment
initiation
- Suppression of HBV replication is the key endpoint in chronic
hepatitis B (CHB) therapy
- Currently marketed drugs are split into interferons and antivirals
- Choice of first-line treatment depends on multiple factors
- Interferons
- Antivirals
- CHAPTER 5 KEY PLAYERS IN THE HEPATITIS B MARKET

- Gilead and Bristol-Myers Squibb will dominate the HBV market, whereas
GSK and Schering-Plough will lose share

- CHAPTER 10 COMBINATION THERAPIES
- Summary
- Combination therapy would prove a valuable alternative in resistant
patients and potentially increase the chance of eradicating the virus
- Combinations between two antivirals
- Lamivudine plus adefovir dipivoxil - no benefits in efficacy, but in
decelerating resistance development
- Combinations with telbivudine - potential benefits with tenofovir,
adefovir or valtorcitabine?
- Tenofovir plus emtricitabine - extending Truvada' s success in HIV?
- Others - focus on entecavir plus nucleotides
- Combinations between one interferon and one antiviral
- Combinations with peginterferon alfa-2a - building on the success in
HCV treatment?
- Combinations with interferon alfa-2b - no added value in efficacy
shown for lamivudine and ribavirin
