# Ex-US launch market screen

For one product and indication, across a candidate list of countries. Launch value rises with disease burden and falls with crowded competition and trial competition for the same patients.

## 1. Size the burden

1. Find the right indicator with @[WHO GHO · Indicators](alexandria:who-int/indicators/indicators) (for example prevalence or mortality for the condition). Keep the **indicator_code**.
2. Pull @[WHO GHO · Data](alexandria:who-int/indicators/data) with spatial_dim_type COUNTRY for the candidate countries, latest five years.

## 2. Map the competition

3. Search @[EMA · Medicines](alexandria:ema-europa-eu/records/medicines) by therapeutic area or the competitor substances: which are authorised in the EU, with dates and status.
4. Search @[FDA · Drug applications](alexandria:fda-gov/records/drug_applications) for the same competitors to see US approval dates; an EU gap after US approval hints at a slow EU route.

## 3. Measure trial crowding

5. Search @[ClinicalTrials.gov · Trial search](alexandria:clinicaltrials-gov/clinical-trials/search) by condition, recruiting status and country. Count trials per country and note sponsors that are direct competitors.

## Write the screen

- **Country table:** burden value and year, competitor approvals, recruiting trials, competitor sponsors.
- **Ranking:** top markets with a one-line reason each.
- **Risks:** countries with high burden but heavy trial crowding, which slows real-world uptake and site access.
- **Caveats:** WHO indicators may lag several years; EMA covers centralised authorisations only.
- **Sources:** cite indicator codes, EMA product numbers, application numbers and NCT ids. Say what could not be found.
