Since December 2013 Sovaldi is available in the US and since January 2014 in some European countries while approvals in various significant markets are still pending. Based on its medical importance, I expect more launches in due time. Medicare (US national social insurance program) projects costs of USD 6.5bn in 2015 related to Sovaldi (US only). Until recently, Hepatitis C patients have been treated with a combination of injections and the effect was only to stabilize the disease but not to heal it. In addition, side effects were significant. Sovaldi can be applied in the much easier form of pills. Furthermore, Sovaldi can completely cure Hepatitis C within weeks, as results have shown. The Swiss Department of Health assumes that 1% of total population is infected with the Hepatitis C virus, thus approximately 80’000 people in Switzerland. Extrapolated, Europe would have 7.5m potential patients and worldwide there will be 80m potential patients. Costs of treatment are currently USD 84’000 per patient (in the US). Enormous growth potential here.
