Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis Therapeutics Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast 2015 - 2025
LONDON, Sept. 6, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a disorder categorized by excess fat in the liver of people who drink little to no alcohol. No direct cause has yet been identified, however obesity and insulin resistance are believed to have major roles. Most often, NAFLD goes relatively undetected, as a liver can remain fatty without obstructing its function. Though, NAFLD can progress into a far more severe condition known as nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), a disease characterized by inflammation and irreversible cell death. NASH is a disease that advances over time. Over a period of ten years up to 20% of patients with NASH develop cirrhosis of the liver, and 10% die from the disease. At present, NASH is one of the leading causes of liver transplants in the U.S., with a considerable proportion of the general population currently suffering from the disease. NAFLD and NASH are both closely related to diabetes and obesity, and together are now considered as the leading cause of liver disease in Western countries. Thus, there is an urgent need for effective treatment options for these diseases. The need for treatment is expected to propel the growth of NASH therapeutics in coming years.
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 provides a list of 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 followed by Obeticholic Acid (OCA) market and the market for Elafibranor is expected to grow at the highest CAGR.
