OneMedResearch Global Report: Obesity

A vast market in search of a blockbuster.

 

Rapidly growing and increasingly costly to the healthcare system, obesity is regarded as an epidemic. Yet there has been little in the way of new drugs coming to market, with just four drugs approved in the last five years and none in the preceding 13 years.

 

Our research indicates a substantial amount of promising innovation on the horizon. These reports identify these opportunities to give investors and overall understanding of the Obesity market. They include drug targets and the mechanisms of action in both scientific terms and in a format understandable to any investor.
