WOMEN'S HEALTH: U.S. MARKETS FOR OSTEOPOROSIS MANAGEMENT PRODUCTS

129 Pages | 30 Exhibits | 2008 Analysis | Forecasts Through 2010

OVERVIEW:

In 2007, the United States (U.S.) market for osteoporosis management products totaled approximately $7.6 billion. Sales of these products are expected to increase at a compound annual rate of 6.6%, reaching an estimated $9.3 billion in the year 2010.

This new report from Medtech Insight includes analyses of products, technologies, current and forecast markets, competitors, and opportunities in the U.S. osteoporosis management products market. According to the first-ever U.S. Surgeon General's report on the nation's bone health, by the year 2020 one out of two Americans over the age of 50 will be at risk for fractures from osteoporosis. Currently, approximately 10 million people in the U.S. are estimated to have osteoporosis, and another 34 million are believed to have low bone mass, placing them at risk for developing osteoporosis.

Products for the diagnosis and treatment of osteoporosis that are covered in this report include biochemical markers, bone densitometry systems, and hormone replacement and osteoporosis drugs. These include antiresorptive drugs such as bisphosphonates, calcitonins, estrogen, and selective estrogen receptor modulators; bone-forming drugs such as parathyroid hormone and sodium fluoride; combination drugs; and treatments such as cathepsin K inhibitors, gene therapy, monoclonal antibodies, selective androgen receptor modulators, and statin drugs.
