Dynamics
Being a generic
molecule, the growth of the market has slowed down with increased
competition. However, emergence of combination therapies and
additional therapeutic indications for tamoxifen is expected to fuel
the market growth. For instance, 2018 Novartis received breakthrough
therapy designation for Kisqali by FDA in Phase 3. Designation was
based on the successful phase 3 MONALEESA-7 trials, which
demonstrated significant prolonged-free survival (PFS) of Kisqali +
tamoxifen (or an aromatase inhibitor). Moreover, increasing number of
government and non-government organizations are investing to discover
additional therapeutic applications of tamoxifen, which in turn, is
expected to boost market growth. For instance, In 2017 Duchenne UK,
E-Rare, Duchenne Parent Project, and Monaco Association jointly
contributed US$ 766,338 for a clinical trial, which aims to study the
effects of tamoxifen in treating duchenne muscular dystrophy.
