DUBLIN, Ireland--(Business Wire)--
Research and Markets
(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/3e49fa/neurodegenerative) has
announced the addition of Cutting Edge Information's new report
"Neurodegenerative Market Forecast to 2013" to their offering. 

Comprehensive Forecasts for Neurodegenerative Conditions. The neurodegenerative
space is a top-selling pharmaceutical market. Consider these facts:

* Sales among all drugs profiled in this report total $18.5 billion and are
expected to increase 62% to $29.7 billion by 2012. 
* The majority of this growth is projected to be in multiple sclerosis, which
will increase from a $12.6 billion market to upwards of $20 billion in 2012.

Neurodegenerative disease patients have few treatment options, which often
provide only limited effectiveness. Companies that can invest in and develop
new, tolerable therapies which improve patients' quality of life could see
hundreds of millions - or even billions - of dollars in sales. 

In one convenient, easy-to-access format, Neurodegenerative Market Forecast to
2013 provides a compelling, full picture of the Alzheimer's, Multiple Sclerosis
and Parkinson's markets. 

CEI's veteran analysts examine 40 brands representing different classes and
stages of development. The profiled products represent over 90% of sales in the
neurodegenerative market. Each drug profile has the following components:

* Drug history
