Abstract
Introduction
Today' s leading autoimmune/infl ammatory disease drugs are blockbusters, but
what are the remaining unmet needs and next opportunities? Dealmaking patterns
indicate that Big Pharma continues to look to small technology companies to
tap opportunities to treat underserved diseases and offer improved
administration options. While the value of the novel agents in development
remains unproved, earlystage platforms and pipelines house the next
innovations in these disease states.
Get the Answers You Need to Shape Your Strategy
- Although effi cacious, current therapies for infl ammatory and autoimmune
diseases do not successfully treat all patients. What novel mechanisms of
action are in development? What technologies offer treatment potential?
- Much of the innovation in drug discovery and design occurs in small
companies. What companies are developing novel approaches to treat infl
ammatory diseases? What collaborations have they forged with Big Pharma?
- Although the infl ammatory cascade is central to most of the autoimmune
diseases, the specifi c etiology of many diseases remains unknown. What are
companies doing to further the understanding of these diseases?
