Biohaven's zavegepant nasal spray for migraines set to reach sales of $206.8 million in 2030
US biotech Biohaven Pharmaceutical (NYSE: BHVN) migraine nasal spray zavegepant is set to generate annual sales of $206.8 million in the USA following the potential approval of its new drug application (NDA), which was received by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) last week.
According to data and analytics company GlobalData, the drug’s alternative delivery offers it a competitive advantage, but key opinion leaders (KOLs) previously interviewed by GlobalData have voiced concerns over nasal spray side effects and reimbursement.
Biohaven is currently the subject of an $11.6 billion takeover bid from Pfizer (NYSE: PFE), which is aimed at bringing the US pharma giant into the migraine sector via Nurtec ODT (rimegepant), an innovative dual-acting migraine therapy approved for both acute treatment and episodic prevention of migraine in adults, marketed by Biohaven, as well as its pipeline products. If completed, this acquisition will significantly support the development and commercialization of the company’s migraine products, said GlobalData.
