Top Takeaways
- Barriers affect a fifth of all prescriptions: But two barriers in particular affect more prescriptions than the others.
- Market access is not the problem: Barriers related to market access affect far fewer prescriptions than either of the top two barriers.
- Four brands gain share: But the most prescribed brand sees a significantly larger net gain than any other brand.
- One brand loses big: The least-prescribed brand loses far more market share than any competitor, and suffers disproportionately from four of the seven barriers.
- Eliminating barriers would shake up the rankings: Moving one brand into second place, shuffling the order in the middle of the pack, and doubling share for the last-place brand.
- One brand has a big perception problem: Nearly 15% of surveyed doctors didn’t even know it existed.
- Cotellic (cobimetinib; Roche)
- Imlygic (talimogene laherparepvec; Amgen)
- Keytruda (pembrolizumab; Merck Sharp & Dohme)
- Mekinist (trametinib; Novartis)
- Opdivo (nivolumab; Bristol-Myers Squibb)
- Tafinlar (dabrafenib; Novartis)
- Yervoy (ipilimumab; Bristol-Myers Squibb)
- Zelboraf (vemurafenib; Roche)
