Research on Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis Therapeutics Market Reveals Major Areas of Growth


Posted April 15, 2016 by ranutmr

Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is liver inflammation and damage caused by accumulation of fat in the liver.

 
According to a new market report published by Transparency Market Research “Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis Therapeutics Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast 2015 - 2025”, the nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) therapeutics market is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 10.7% from 2015 to 2025 to reach US$20.27 bn by 2025.

Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) is a syndrome that advances in patients who are not alcoholic; it causes liver damage that is histologically indistinguishable from alcoholic hepatitis. The major feature in NASH is fat in the liver, along with inflammation and damage. Most people with NASH feel well and are not aware of their liver problem. However, NASH can be severe and can lead to cirrhosis, in which the liver is permanently damaged and no longer able to work properly. It develops most frequently in patients with at least one of the following risk factors as obesity, dyslipidemia, and glucose intolerance. Pathogenesis is not clearly understood but seems to be linked to insulin resistance. Most of the patients are asymptomatic. Laboratory outcomes include elevations in aminotransferase levels. Biopsy is essential to confirm the diagnosis. Treatment mainly focusses on elimination of causes and risk factors.

The prevalence of NASH and NAFLD is increasing across the globe but it is more in developed regions such as North America. Both NASH and NAFLD are becoming more common, perhaps because of the greater number of Americans with obesity. In the past few years, the rate of obesity has almost doubled in adults and tripled in children. Obesity also adds to diabetes and high blood cholesterol, which can further complicate the health of people suffering from NASH. Diabetes and high blood cholesterol are also becoming more common among Americans.

Currently, no specific therapies exist for NASH treatment. The most important recommendations given to persons with this disease are weight reduction (if overweight), following a balanced and healthy diet, increasing physical activity, avoiding alcohol and avoiding unnecessary medications.

The NASH market is segmented based on drug type which includes potential phase III candidates such as Obeticholic acid (OCA), Aramchol, Saroglitazar and Elafibranor. Moreover, the report enlists the candidates in Phase I and Phase II clinical trials. Based on the drug type, Elafibranor is expected to account for a major share of this market and the market for Elafibranor is expected to grow at the highest CAGR. This growth is majorly due to Elafibranor which is considered to be the most advanced drug in this category.
