Obesity Therapeutics to 2019 - Safety Concerns Hinder Drug
Performance Despite Large Market Opportunity
Summary
GBI Research, the leading business intelligence provider, has
released its latest research, “Obesity Therapeutics to 2019 -
Safety Concerns Hinder Drug Performance Despite Large Market
Opportunity”. Obesity is often described as a global endemic, with
incidence dramatically increasing over the past decades,
particularly in developed countries. Being overweight or obese is
a major risk factor in the development of many chronic diseases,
including cardiovascular diseases, cancer, and diabetes, of which
treatment incurs extensive economic and healthcare costs.
Numerous anti-obesity drugs have been approved in the past
decade, including Knoll Pharmaceutical’s Meridia (sibutramine)

and Acomplia (rimonabant), only for them to be removed from the
market due to evidence of suicidal thoughts, depression and
cardiovascular problems with their long-term use. As such,
healthcare professionals have a negative perception of such
drugs and do not widely prescribe them, a major barrier to the
growth of the anti-obesity therapeutics market.
Only orlistat is currently deemed safe for the long-term treatment
of obesity; being proven to produce a placebo-adjusted weight-
loss average of a limited 3kg. Two anti-obesity drugs were
approved in June and July 2012, and GBI Research believes that
only one, Vivus’ Qsymia, has a strong enough safety and efficacy
(average placebo-adjusted weight loss of 5kg at the medium dose)
profile to make a significant impact on the market, providing it is
proven safe in long-term-use studies. If proven safe, GBI
Research expects the sales of Qsymia and other drugs expected
to be

approved over the forecast period to increase the market size to
$2.7 billion. Although moderate, this is significantly below the
market potential given the size of the prevalence population.
Optimally safe and effective anti-obesity drugs which overcome
healthcare professionals’ negative opinions will have to be
developed if the size of the market is ever to reflect the prevalence
of obesity.
Scope
- The report analyzes the incidence of obesity, current treatment
options, pipeline and market forecasts, and deals surrounding
anti-obesity drugs.
- A brief introduction to obesity; detailed analysis of recent,
current and projected incidence trends; co-morbidities; economic
implications of their treatment; and the current treatment options

- Analysis of the currently marketed anti-obesity drugs, including
recent sales figures, safety and efficacy data, and a discussion of
each drug’s expected performance within the forecast period
- Comprehensive reviews of the pipeline for anti-obesity drugs,
including analysis by molecule type and mechanism of action
- Statistical analysis of clinical trial duration, size, and failure rate
by Phase and molecule type
- An in-depth forecast model for the anti-obesity drugs market in
the US, UK, France, Germany, Italy, Spain and Japan. Each model
is based on the anticipated market performance of marketed
drugs and those expected to be approved within the forecast
period, and takes into account drug cost, efficacy, safety, and
likely prescription volumes.
- A detailed discussion of the drivers and barriers for this
immature market.

Reasons to buy
The report will enhance your decision-making capability by
allowing you to -
- Understand the large number of potential molecular targets for
the development of an anti-obesity drug, as well as the strengths,
weaknesses, and risks of each drug type
- Gain an in-depth view of the current status of the anti-obesity
drug pipeline, including the most common molecular targets and
molecule types in development
- Observe the trends in clinical trial duration and size by Phase,
molecule type and mechanism of action, and use the clinical trial
failure rate analysis to assess the risk profiles of current and
future developmental programs
- Assess the potential clinical and commercial impact of current
late-stage pipeline molecules on the anti-obesity drugs market

- Analyze current and past deals surrounding anti-obesity drugs,
including their value, year of deal and in depth details of the
highest value deals.
