Abstract
Political and business events presage change for stem cell therapeutics, most
notably the expected move by President Barack Obama to lift federal funding
restrictions on stem-cell research. The U.S. Congress has also indicated a
desire to move forward with stem cell research. The momentum in two branches
of American government, along with scientific developments and the competition
of world markets presages good market conditions for stem cell research.
With their ability to differentiate and become an ongoing source of cells that
make up critical tissues and organs, stem cells have potential for new
regenerative therapies and as new research tools for drug developers to test
emerging therapies on diseased cells.
While companies have found opportunity outside the U.S., President Bush' s
seven year limitations on embryonic stem cell research in the U.S. has limited
the U.S. market. Changes in U.S. policy should open up U.S. markets. For
market-watchers in the pharmaceutical industry, the question is what potential
they have and where they could take the market. Kalorama Information has
tackled that question in Stem Cells Therapeutics Markets. Kalorama analyst
Alison Sahoo has built models to determine the best case and most likely case
scenarios for therapeutic markets for stem cells in the coming years. This
report breaks down forecasted revenues and procedure volumes for stem cell
technologies for these segments in the following disease areas:
- Cardiovascular disease
- Lung disease
- Arthritis
- Incontinence
- Osteoporosis
- Diabetes
- Cancer
- Orthopedics
- Infertility
- Alzheimer' s disease
- Burns (severe)
- Lupus
- Parkinson' s disease
- Liver failure
- Multiple sclerosis
- Critical limb ischemia
- Crohn' s disease
- Sickle cell disease
- Multiple myeloma
- NH lymphoma
- Leukemia
Ths report is the result of exclusive interviews with executives in the stem
cell industry, a review of medical and company literature, government
databases and publications. As part of this comprehensive analysis of stem
cell markets, the following companies were profiled:
