Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors indicated for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis and inflammatory bowel disease formed the largest share of the market, according to a new report available on companiesandmarkets.com. The top three products: Johnson & Johnson’s Remicade (infliximab), Abbott Labs’ Humira (adalimumab) and Amgen/Pfizer’s Enbrel (etanercept) accounted for 40.1% of the market in 2010.
Novartis' orally-formulated Gilenya (fingolimod) for multiple sclerosis will gain extensive market share reaching sales of $2.3 billion by 2016. However, Teva’s Copaxone (glatiramer acetate) and Biogen Idec’s Avonex (interferon beta 1a) sales will decline strongly to 2016.
