Endometriosis Market Size and Trend Report including Epidemiology, Disease Management, Pipeline Analysis, Competitor Assessment, Unmet Needs, Clinical Trial Strategies and Forecast, 2020-2030
Summary
The endometriosis market is currently highly genericized and contains many off-label medications, such as oral contraceptives and NSAIDs, which provide affordable options with limited side effects. These factors create a stiff barrier for entry of novel therapeutics, but pipeline therapeutics will find success due to strong efficacy and safety profiles compared with existing endometriosis marketed therapies.
The awareness surrounding endometriosis has improved over the past few years, but remains an area of concern, according to KOLs. Clinicians, physicians, and the general public all need to be more aware of the signs and symptoms of endometriosis in order to decrease diagnosis delays.
Women suffering from endometriosis wait an average of 7 years between symptom onset and diagnosis, during which time the disease can progress significantly, potentially affecting fertility. This diagnosis delay can be improved not only with increased awareness of endometriosis, but also better diagnostic techniques, such as biomarkers. Endometriosis can only be officially diagnosed via laparoscopy, which is an invasive and costly surgical procedure.
Orilissa was the first novel therapy launched in the endometriosis market in over 10 years when it was marketed in 2018. Thus, there is a need for novel therapies in this space, which should be met by the promising pipeline.
