GlobalData tracks drug-specific phase transition and likelihood of approval scores, in addition to indication benchmarks based off 18 years of historical drug development data. Attributes of the drug, company and its clinical trials play a fundamental role in drug-specific PTSR and likelihood of approval.

Primary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis (PPMS) overview

Primary progressive multiple sclerosis (PPMS) is a rare and disabling form of MS that affects the brain, spinal cord, and optic nerves. Unlike other types of MS, PPMS does not have relapses or remissions, but causes steady worsening of neurological functions from the onset. PPMS affects about 10% of people with MS, and it occurs equally in men and women. The average age of diagnosis is around 40 years. The symptoms of PPMS vary from person to person, but they often include problems with walking, balance, vision, muscle weakness, pain, fatigue, cognitive impairment, and bladder and bowel dysfunction. There is no cure for PPMS, but treatments can help manage symptoms and improve quality of life. PPMS is diagnosed based on clinical history, physical examination, MRI scans, spinal fluid analysis, and other tests.
