Competitive vendor landscape

According to the research analysis, the global myasthenia gravis drugs market is characterized by key companies such as Flamel Technologies, Pfizer, Shire, F. Hoffmann-La Roche, Valeant Pharmaceuticals, and Grifols. However, these companies face stiff competition from the manufacturers of off-label drugs. Moreover, the availability of substitute therapies such as thymectomy and limited availability of approved therapies will hinder the growth prospects in the market.

“The advances in R&D activities and launch of novel therapies will further increase the competition among vendors. However, the growth rate of the market is likely to increase from the development of drugs with novel mechanisms such as monoclonal antibodies”, says Sapna Jha, lead central nervous system research analyst from Technavio.

The report also states that strategic acquisitions are likely to fuel market growth. For instance, in March 2012, Flamel Technologies acquired Eclat Pharmaceuticals and eventually capitalized on the pipeline of myasthenia gravis to launch Bloxiverz. With this acquisition, Flamel Technologies became one of the leading vendors in the market. Also, in January 2016, Shire completed the acquisition of Dyax Corp. to expand its portfolio of IVIg.
