Reportstack has announced a new market report on Hepatitis C Virus - Italy Drug Forecast and Market Analysis to 2022. Hepatitis C is a liver infection caused by the hepatitis C virus (HCV) that results in acute or chronic presentation. The disease is often asymptomatic, but infected patients may experience fatigue, joint pain, itchy skin or jaundice. There is no effective vaccine against HCV, so the market is driven by therapeutics. Currently, drug combinations containing pegylated interferon (e.g., Roche’s Pegasys and Merck’s PegIntron) and ribavirin (e.g., Roche’s Copegus and Merck’s Rebetol) are used to treat HCV infection. Patients infected with HCV genotype 1 can also have a protease inhibitor added to their combination therapy, such as Merck’s Victrelis (boceprevir) or Vertex’s Incivek (telaprevir). The entrance of next-generation HCV therapies is expected to fundamentally change the HCV treatment algorithm. The main drivers of growth of the Italian HCV market are expected to be an increase in HCV awareness and the launch of next-generation HCV therapies.
The current market leader in Italy is Roche’s Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a). The current standard of HCV therapy in Italy is a combination of interferon and ribavirin. The less-frequent dosing of peginterferon compared with standard interferon (i.e., once a week compared with three times a week) enabled peginterferon to quickly capture market share. In addition to standard interferon, Pegasys directly competes for market share with Merck’s ViraferonPeg (peginterferon alfa-2b).
