DUBLIN, November 7, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

The "Monoclonal Antibodies - Global Trends in the Competitive, Technological and R&D Landscape" report has been added to Research and Markets' offering.

By 2013, global sales revenues for mAb products totaled almost $75 billion, accounting for approximately half of the total revenue accrued by all biopharmaceutical products.

This value has continued to increase, with mAb sales in 2016 totaling over $90 billion. An estimated record number of mAb approvals is forecast for 2017, which will only increase this value further. This domination of the biopharmaceuticals market is a reflection of their potential impact on the entire pharmaceutical industry, with versatility across a wide range of indications contributing to this success.

Pipeline is highly active, with 2,836 mAbs currently in development. Most are at an early stage of development, with 76% at the Discovery or Preclinical stage. Additionally, currently, there are 85 mAb programs in Phase III development, and 22 at the Pre-registration stage, accounting for just under 4% of the total mAb pipeline.

The report Monoclonal Antibodies - Global Trends in the Competitive, Technological and R&D Landscape provides a comprehensive view of the clinical, R&D, commercial and competitive landscape of mAbs, and assesses key developments in manufacturing and development, covering strategies to combat challenges associated with the use of mAbs in human patients.

Scope:

• While many mAbs that enter the market achieve commercial success, a large proportion are stuck at early-stage development:
• What strategies can be put in place to advance the production of mAbs?
• What strategies can be used to improve both the affinity and therapeutic efficacy of mAbs?
• What are the relative advantages and disadvantages of each mAb type, and which hold the most promise?
• What proportion of the overall mAb R&D pipeline is occupied by each mAb type?
• In which therapy areas is there the highest level of R&D activity for mAbs?
• Which stage of development accounts for the majority of the pipeline?
• How do mAbs fit into the overall portfolios of companies developing them?
• What is the level of involvement in mAbs research for the top 15 Big Pharma companies?
