What are the unmet treatment needs of people with Parkinson’s disease?

What are the unmet treatment needs of people with Parkinson’s disease?

The Client

Pharmaceutical R&D company + path-to-market strategy company

The Need

To understand the drug delivery needs of patients with Parkinson’s disease and their caregivers.

The Action

In-depth interviews were conducted with Neurologists and Movement Disorder Specialists in the US, Germany, and France.

The Outcome

The unmet needs perceived by the pharma company were not the unmet needs perceived by HCPs and their patients – to the extent that even certain symptoms seen as problematic by the pharma company were not problematic to patients. Other important aspects of unmet need revealed critical insights on preferred drug delivery methods to help the company build their value proposition.
