Get Answers to Key Questions about Growth Hormone Brands
- Genotropin (somatropin; Pfizer): Which two leading brands take the bulk of Genotropin’s lost market share?
- Humatrope (somatropin; Eli Lilly): What’s the one surveyed brand that’s more easily reimbursed than Humatrope?
- Norditropin (somatropin; Novo Nordisk): Which competitor could threaten Norditropin if it can manage to overcome market barriers?
- NutropinAq (somatropin; Genentech): Is cost or limited availability costing NutropinAq more market share?
- Omnitrope (somatropin; Sandoz): Omnitrope and NutropinAq are running neck and neck for market share. Which one would pull ahead if market barriers didn’t exist?
- Saizen (somatropin; EMD Serono): Which two market barriers do fewer doctors experience with Saizen than any other brand?
- Zomacton (somatropin; Ferring): Zomacton loses share to both Genotropin and Humatrope. Which one does it also take share from?
- Market access is the issue in the US. Barriers related to market access affect more than twice as many prescriptions as all other barriers combined.
- One brand wins big. Of the two brands that gain share due to market barriers, one gains more than three times as much as the other.
- Eliminating barriers would shake up the market, knocking the 2nd place brand down to 3rd place and widening the gap between the current 4th and 5th place brands.
- Two brands facing awareness issues. Nearly 20% of doctors surveyed are not aware of the two least-prescribed brands. Awareness for the other five brands is high.
- “Other” brands benefit too. Six of the surveyed brands see a net share loss to other brands (not surveyed). In aggregate, these brands see the second largest barrier-related share gain.
- US somewhat more active than Europe. US endocrinologists prescribe all but one of the surveyed brands more often than their European counterparts do.
- Top 3 brands are the same in US and Europe. Endocrinologists in both markets most often prescribe the same three leading brands.

- What brands do doctors prescribe the most?
- How many prescriptions do barriers affect?
- Which barriers have the biggest impact?
- How many doctors prescribe your brand? How many don’t, but would consider it?
