Etanercept is a Fusion Protein owned by Amgen, and is involved in 92 clinical trials, of which 87 were completed, and 5 are ongoing.

Etanercept is a human tumor necrosis factor receptor p75 fc fusion protein produced by recombinant DNA technology in a chinese hamster ovary (CHO) mammalian cell expressing system. Etanercept inhibits binding of both TNF alpha and TNF beta (lymphotoxin alpha [LT aplha]) to cell surface TNFRs, rendering TNF biologically inactive.

The revenue for Etanercept is expected to reach a total of $10.6bn through 2038. This change impacts the valuation of this asset and is an important factor to understand the current value of the drug in a clinical process. View the complete picture with the Etanercept NPV Report.

Etanercept Overview

Etanercept (Enbrel, Enbrel PFS) is a dimeric fusion protein, immunomodulator and an antirheumatic agent. It is formulated as solution and powder for solution for subcutaneous route of administration. It is indicated for the treatment of moderate to severe active rheumatoid arthritis, polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) in patients ages 2 and older and active ankylosing spondylitis (AS). It is also indicated for reducing signs and symptoms, inhibiting the progression of structural damage of active arthritis, and improving physical function in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Enbrel can be used with or without methotrexate(MTX) in the treatment of psoriatic arthritis. In addition, it is also used for the treatment of adult patients (18 years or older) with chronic moderate to severe plaque psoriasis (PsO) who are candidates for systemic therapy or phototherapy and plaque psoriasis in pediatric patients. Enbrel for pediatric use injection is only used for juvenile idiopathic arthritis and pediatric plaque psoriasis. Enbrel is indicated for the treatment of patients 4 to 17 years with chronic moderate to severe plaque psoriasis (PsO) who are candidates for systemic therapy or phototherapy. It is also indicated for reducing signs and symptoms of moderately to severely active polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis (jia) in patients aged 4 to 17 years who have had an inadequate response to one or more disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs). Enbrel has not been studied in children less than 2 years of age. It is indicated for the treatment of non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis.

The drug candidate is under development as a monotherapy for psoriatic arthritis and in maintaining remission of rheumatoid arthritis. It was also under development for the treatment of Wegener's granulomatosis and hidradenitis suppurativa.

It was under development for the treatment of palmoplantar pustulosis.

GlobalData, the leading provider of industry intelligence, provided the underlying data, research, and analysis used to produce this article.

To create this model, GlobalData takes into account factors including patent law, known and projected regulatory approval processes, cash flows, potential applicable patients, drug margins, company expenses, and pricing estimates. Combining these data points with GlobalData’s world class analysis creates high value models that companies can use to help in evaluation processes for each drug or company.

The rNPV method integrates the probability of a drug reaching a clinical stage into the cash flow at that time, which provides a more accurate rNPV, as it considers the probability that the drug never makes it through the clinical pathway to commercialization. GlobalData’s rNPV model uses proprietary likelihood of approval (LoA)and phase transition success rate(PTSR) data for the indication in the highest development stage, which can be found on GlobalData’s Pharmaceutical Intelligence Center.
