Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) Therapeutics - Pipeline Assessment and Market Forecasts to 2017 ARDS Therapeutics Market is Forecast to Show Slow Growth to 2017, The report identifies the key trends shaping and driving the global ARDS therapeutics market. GlobalData valued the global acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) therapeutics market at $576.6m in 2010. The market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 2.4% to reach $682.6m in 2017. The steady growth is primarily attributed to the low incidence of the disease and a lack of approved drugs on the market. The competitive landscape currently consists of generic and offlabel drugs. GlobalData’s research indicates that the ARDS pipeline is weak, with 12 molecules in the different phases of development. First-in-class molecules have distinct advantages over current drug treatment options in terms of disease management. The unmet need of the ARDS market is high as there are no approved drugs currently on the market. Treatment currently relies on off-label drugs such as Levaquin (levofloxacin), Nimbex (cisatracurium besylate) and generic drugs such as lorazepam and methylprednisolone. The market subsequently needs therapies offering better results in terms of safety and efficacy.

The market is dominated by off-label treatment, such as Levaquin, Nimbex, and other generics such as methylprednisolone, clindamycin and lorazepam. The market scenario is expected to change with the launch of new therapies, such as tissue factor (TF) antagonists, CD modulators, p38 kinase inhibitors and DNA polymerase inhibitors. GlobalData analysis shows that the ARDS therapeutics pipeline is weak, with only 12 molecules in the different phases of development. Although there are eight first-in-class molecules, these are mostly in the early stages of development or in pre-clinical trials. Their impact on the market is subsequently not expected to be seen during the forecast period to 2017. There are currently no Phase III molecules in the pipeline. Consequently, the pipeline for the ARDS therapeutics market is weak and is not expected to greatly impact the market during the forecast period.
