The following are excerpts from Dalma's exclusive speaker interview with SMi
Q: The Pain Therapeutics market has matured greatly over recent years, what key differences have you noticed in the last year regarding significant developments?
A: "In the past decades there is an increasing incidence in chronic diseases such as nerve damage, joint pain, back pain, injuries, depression which coupled with increasing geriatric population and changing lifestyle are key factors in driving growth of the pain management therapeutics market. However, side effects caused by certain pain management therapeutics, availability of other generic pain management medications and increasing preference for them, are key factors restraining the growth of the global pain management therapeutics market."
Q: Where do you see the greatest opportunities for analgesic therapeutics leaders in 2019?
"Chronic pain is a major healthcare issue owing to its high prevalence, accompanied by significant physical and emotional burden on the patient and a significant financial burden on the society. It is the leading cause of years lost to disability. There is a huge unmet need for effective medications and innovative alternative solutions in this space, whether it be targeting the chronic pain sufferer itself or the better management of acute pain sufferer and therefore prevention of the chronification of their pain."
Q: Who are you most looking forward to hearing from at the main-conference and why?
A: "I am most looking forward to hearing from Donald Manning on his topic on Therapy for the disease of pain rather than nociceptive masking. I am very interested in learning more about his views on targeting the pathologic response to trauma or injury rather than protective nociception."
