Neurofibromatosis Treatment Drugs Market in Asia Pacific Is Driven By Approval and Launch of New Drugs

 

Neurofibromatosis Treatment Drugs Market

Neurofibromatosis type 1is a debilitating genetic condition that can cause clinical issues such as disfigurement, motor dysfunction, pain, airway dysfunction, visual impairment and bladder or bowel dysfunction. Neurofibromatosis type 2 is associated with vestibular schwannomas, or noncancerous tumors along the nerves in the brain that are involved with hearing and balance. Recently, in July 2021, a research in the U.S. indicated that the blood pressure drug losartan may benefit patients with neurofibromatosis type 2. The research was conducted at Massachusetts General Hospital and Massachusetts Eye and Ear. Similarly in October 2019, SpringWorks Therapeutics, Inc., a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, announced that the first patient has been dosed in the Phase 2b ReNeu clinical trial evaluating mirdametinib, an oral, small molecule designed to inhibit MEK1 and MEK2, in children and adult patients with neurofibromatosis type 1-associated plexiform neurofibromas (NF1-PN). Thus, R&D in neurofibromatosis treatment is expected to propel growth of the neurofibromatosis treatment drugs market.

The neurofibromatosis treatment drugs market in Europe is driven by approval and launch of new drugs. For instance, in June 2021, the European Union granted AstraZeneca and Merck’s Koselugo (selumetinib) approval for the treatment of symptomatic, inoperable plexiform neurofibromas in paediatric patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 aged three years and above.

R&D in neurofibromatosis treatment is expected to propel growth of the neurofibromatosis treatment drugs market in North America. For instance, in January 2021, a research in the U.S. demonstrated that the drug, cabozantinib, reduces tumor volume and pain in patients with the genetic disorder neurofibromatosis type 1. The research was conducted at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia as part of the Neurofibromatosis Clinical Trials Consortium.

The neurofibromatosis treatment drugs market in Asia Pacific is driven by approval and launch of new drugs. For instance, in July 2020, AstraZeneca was granted orphan drug designation for selumetinib in Japan for the treatment of neurofibromatosis type 1. Moreover, government investment in R&D of neurofibromatosis is also expected to aid in growth of the market in Asia Pacific. For instance, in February 2021, The Australian Government announced to invest US$ 8 million to support the Children’s Tumour Foundation and research into neurofibromatosis.

Players in the neurofibromatosis treatment drugs market are focused on adopting partnership stringiest to expand their product portfolio. For instance, in July 2021, The Children’s Tumor Foundation launched INTUITT-NF2, an innovative platform trial to evaluate multiple treatments simultaneously. This initiative, in collaboration with Takeda Pharmaceuticals, is a significant advancement in care for neurofibromatosis type 2.
