Publisher's Alzheimer’sTherapeutics in Asia-Pacific Markets to 2021 - Growth Driven by RisingPrevalence, Growing Awareness and Expected Launch of Disease ModifyingTherapies report provides analysis of the Alzheimer’s disease treatment space across the Asia-Pacific countries of India, China, Australia and Japan, with annualized market date from 2014 and forecast to 2021. It includes analysis of the Alzheimer’s disease pipeline stratified by stage of development, molecule type, and molecular target. 

The Asia-Pacific (APAC) Alzheimer’s disease market will rise from a value of $3 billion in 2014 to $5.1 billion in 2021, at a CAGR of 7.9% across the four Asia-Pacific markets assessed. The main driver of this impressive growth, which will occur across India, China, Australia and Japan, will be rising and aging populations, as Alzheimer’s disease is significantly more prevalent among the elderly. Additional market drivers include better diagnostic techniques, improving health awareness, special healthcare programs, health insurance coverage, and increasing treatment affordability.

Across the APAC region, the expansion of health insurance coverage will increase access to healthcare, also leading to a rise in Alzheimer’s diagnosis and higher treatment rates. In terms of the current Alzheimer’s pipeline, there are a number of late-stage products with the potential to be approved and launched in APAC countries during the forecast period. These include first-in-class Beta-site Amyloid precursor protein Cleaving Enzyme (BACE) 1 inhibitors and passive immunotherapies.
