09 Jul 2013 • by Natalie Aster

LONDON – There has been a considerable increase in the number of drugs available to treat rare, or so called ‘orphan’, diseases recently. Drugs and biological products to treat these conditions are typically referred to as ‘orphan drugs’. Cancer is a major opportunity for biotech companies as return on investment could often turn positive. Infectious diseases highlight the pressing need for new therapies with novel mechanisms of action to avoid growing issues affecting this industry including a top area of concern — drug resistance.

The increasing incidence of diseases affecting older people is expected to drive the world orphan drug market from a value of 61bn in 2012 to over USD 105bn by end-2017. In the US, the largest country-level market, adequate initiatives to treat many rare diseases have been taken, thus creating a thriving marketplace for orphan drug treatments. Amgen, Novartis and Roche are likely to be the world’s leading market contributors.
