"With a large untreated population, endometriosis remains a considerably underdeveloped market," says Frost & Sullivan Research Analyst Vaibhav Sarvesh. "However, patient awareness about the condition has been increasing, setting the stage for enhanced market penetration."

The projected introduction of novel products with better side effects together with changing raising awareness will help increase adoption levels of endometriosis therapeutics across Europe.

"GnRH Antagonist and progestins with longer treatment periods will be the most important treatment options that will support market expansion," notes Mr. Sarvesh. "Heightened awareness due to information dissemination campaigns, paralleled by the availability of products with enhanced safety profiles will positively impact market growth."

The current lack of efficient and non-invasive diagnostic procedures as well as the negative side effects of existing therapeutics is restraining the market from growing at its real potential. An aging population and restrictive reimbursement policies are further impeding market growth.

"Laparoscopy is considered the gold standard for the diagnosis of endometriosis, but this procedure is invasive and costly," adds Mr. Sarvesh. "No new procedures are expected to be launched in the near future, thereby will continue to hinder market growth."

At the same time, the side effect of current treatment options, particularly the effect of some of the drugs on bone density, will pose a major challenge to market expansion until new treatments are introduced.

Considering the large population of untreated patients, increasing awareness will be the key to market growth. Promoting knowledge about the disease coupled with the launch of drugs with fewer side effects will be critical to sustaining market development. Although antagonists are expected to drive the market in the future, success also awaits any innovative therapeutic approach such as the use of progestin modulators.
