During the forecast period, the dermatology drugs market is forecasted to witness the fastest growth in APAC, with 9.6% CAGR. This growth can be attributed to the increasing disposable income of people in the region, which is leading to the high adoption of skincare products, including dermatological drugs. Moreover, the increase in the number of skin cancer cases in the region is contributing to the high demand for these drugs.

Furthermore, several market players, as part of their business strategy, are exploring the untapped market in developing economies such as China and India, which, in turn, is supporting the growth of the APAC dermatology drugs market. For instance, in October 2017, Glenmark Pharmaceuticals Ltd., an Indian pharmaceutical manufacturer, received approval from the Drug Controller General of India to launch Otezla, a new class of oral medication for psoriasis, after conducting clinical trials on psoriasis patients for 16 weeks. The approval and launch of new medications in developing countries are expected to boost the demand for dermatological drugs in APAC during the forecast period.

Companies operating in the dermatology drugs market are collaborating with other pharmaceutical firms to develop new and innovative products. For instance, in November 2018, Sanofi collaborated with Denali Therapeutics Inc. (Denali), a biopharmaceutical company, for the development of multiple molecules, DNL747 and DNL758, with the potential to treat a range of neurological and systemic inflammatory diseases. Under the agreement, Sanofi will pay $125 million to Denali to study the lead molecule DNL747 in multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer’s disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and DNL758 in systemic inflammatory diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis.

Some of the other key players in the dermatology drugs market are Celgene Corporation, Bausch Health Companies Inc., Pfizer Inc., Bristol-Myers Squibb Company, Johnson & Johnson, Allergan plc, Merck & Co.
