Features and benefits
Highlights
Datamonitor has identified 65 products in development for allergic rhinitis. The late-stage pipeline is heavily skewed towards immunotherapy, which makes up all 15 Phase III products. Immunotherapy shows the greatest innovation, with considerable change to clinical trials, and an increased focus on sublingual tablet franchises.
Discussions with key opinion leaders reveal a largely stable market for symptomatic treatment; however, areas of innovation exist, such as the development of combination products. Analysis of comparator therapies highlights areas of unmet need.
A number of novel targeted therapies are moving through the pipeline, including five CRTH2 antagonists. Key opinion leaders and recent discontinuations have cast skepticism over their clinical viability, with efficacy expected to fall short of established treatment classes. However, they may find a place in the treatment of select patient groups.
