Bipolar Disorder – Landscape & Forecast – Disease Landscape & Forecast

Bipolar disorder (BPD) is a spectrum disorder encompassing two main symptom domains: mania and depression. Atypical antipsychotics, lithium, antiepileptic drugs (AEDs), and antidepressants are the mainstay therapies used to treat BPD; their long-standing stronghold as patient-share leaders contribute to the challenges that branded therapies face entering this crowded therapy market. Nevertheless, current treatments have multiple shortcomings; thus, novel therapies with the potential to capitalize on the remaining opportunities in BPD treatment could drive growth of this market. In addition to newer-to-market antipsychotics (e.g., Alkermes’s Lybalvi, Intra-Cellular Therapies’ Caplyta), a handful of emerging therapies from a variety of drug classes are in late-phase development (e.g., Vanda Pharmaceuticals’ iloperidone, NeuroRx’s NRX-101, Sunovion / Sumitomo Dainippon / Otsuka’s SEP-4199), and still more are in early development (e.g., psychedelics). If successful, they could offer new treatment options for BPD.
