Osteoporosis Market Overview


Osteoporosis is often called the "silent disease" because bone loss occurs without symptoms. It is characterized by low bone mass and micro-architectural deterioration of bone tissue, leading to bone fragility and a consequent increase in risk of fracture. Global osteoporosis market is expected to reach 16 Billion by 2015. This significant growth is primarily attributed to strong treatment options currently available in the market as well as strong pipeline products. The increase in the prevalence of osteoporosis among the female population is the principal driver of the osteoporosis market and will continue to be in the future.


Fosamax was the undisputed leading product in the history of global osteoporosis drug market till 2007. It has a market share of nearly 37% in 2007 but, declined to 5% by 2015 due to patent expiry and competition from cheaper generics. Boniva and Evista were leading the osteoporosis market till 2010 but the dynamics of osteoporosis market is expected to change by 2011 as Prolia is going to be introduced in the market. It is predicted that Prolia will lead the market with nearly 45% share by 2015.


The osteoporosis market offers multiple opportunities for current and future market players. In addition to increasing awareness, diagnosis and treatment, there is the need to develop new drugs that promote bone building. While the market awaits new growth, driven by the launch of several promising pipeline drugs, including Amgen’s Prolia (denosumab), companies are looking for innovative ways to maximize revenues from their products nearing the end of their lifecycles.
