Multiple sclerosis is an immune system disorder in which the immune system degrades the protective covering of the nerves. The damage to the nerves disrupts the communication between the brain and the body, disrupting the body's normal functioning. Treatment can be done through medication, therapy, and exercise. The increasing prevalence of the disease has been fueling the demand for multiple sclerosis drugs for effective treatment.
- For instance, as per the data published by Multiple Sclerosis International Federation in 2021, more than 1.0 million people are affected by MS in Europe.
Our report on the European market covers the following countries/regions – the U.K., Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Scandinavia, and the rest of Europe.
LATEST TRENDS
Increasing Emphasis of Market Players on Clinical Trials for Effective Drug Development to Propel Industry Growth
The increasing prevalence of multiple sclerosis has increased the demand for the development of effective multiple sclerosis drugs. Market players have increased their emphasis on clinical trials for effective drug development.
- For instance, Hoffmann-La Roche drug candidate Fenebrutinib is in Phase 3 clinical trial to study its safety and efficacy to control the disability progression in adult participants with primary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis (PPMS). The expected study completion is in 2026.
The launch of multiple sclerosis drugs in European countries is expected to fuel the European market growth in the region.
DRIVING FACTORS
Increasing Drug Approval for the Disease Treatment to Fueling the Market Growth
To fulfil the demand for effective treatment to control the progression of the disease, regulatory bodies in the region have increased their emphasis on the approval of effective drugs for the treatment.
- For instance, in January 2020, Novartis announced the approval of its product Mayzent (siponimod) by the European Commission (EC). The drug is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis (SPMS).
Such product approvals are expected to fuel the Europe multiple sclerosis drugs market growth over the forecast period.
RESTRAINING FACTORS
Limitation in the Diagnosis Due to Non-Distinguishable Symptoms to Limit Market Growth
Multiple sclerosis is an acquired neurological disorder of central nervous system. Various forms of multiple sclerosis have been identified by clinicians, which differ in their respective symptoms and patterns. However, no distinct symptoms of multiple sclerosis can help identify the disease from physical examination. Moreover, no specific clinical or non-clinical diagnostic test is available for diagnosing the disease, which is a key restraint for relatively fewer people diagnosed with multiple sclerosis across the globe.
Due to this, comparatively limited number of people get effective treatment for the disease, thereby limiting the market growth.
