Piribo It Takes 600 Million Suffering in Epidemic Proportions for the...

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) has been a much neglected area in drug development for several decades but now is the fifth leading cause of death worldwide.



Widely recognized as self-inflicted by smoking, COPD has often had low priority in respiratory programs. It is now realized that at least 600 million people, worldwide, suffer from COPD-numbers indicative of epidemic proportions. Governments, healthcare workers and pharmaceutical companies have recently prioritized and raised awareness of this disease area as one of major unmet medical need. Indicative of prioritization of this disease is the widespread occurrence of COPD-specific drug discovery in respiratory R&D in pharmaceutical companies. It is evident that a paradigm shift is taking place in COPD drug discovery. Rather than the traditional approach of symptom relief; new generation pharmaceuticals are beginning to target underlying disease.
