Incretin-Based Drugs Market 2017 – 2027 | AstraZeneca Plc, Boehringer Ingelheim GmbH, Eli Lilly and Company, GlaxoSmithKline Plc, Johnson & Johnson, Merck & Co., Inc., Novartis AG

Incretins are a group of metabolic hormones that stimulate on the decrease in blood glucose levels. Incretin-based drugs include dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors and Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, which are a relatively new group of drugs used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes. These drugs are associated with a low risk of hypoglycemia and have the favorable effect on body weight. Oral anti-diabetic drugs fail to maintain the desired normal levels of glucose, particularly during postprandial conditions, this has resulted in a strong need for better therapeutics like incretin-based drugs. Incretin-based drugs increase the secretion of insulin by acting on pancreatic beta cells and also inhibits the release of glucagon by acting on the pancreatic alpha cells. Incretin-based drugs namely Incretin mimetics (GLP-1 agonist) and DPP-4 inhibitors work on the antidiabetic principle of incretin hormone.

Incretin-Based Drugs Market: Drivers and Restraints

The major drivers of global incretin-based drugs market are the sedentary lifestyle, rising old age population, increasing rate of cardiovascular diseases, obesity, increasing incidence of diabetes, and raising awareness of diabetes. Also, a large number of pre-diagnosed and undiagnosed patients across the globe are further fuel the market growth for incretin-based drugs. But the lack of reimbursement, poor accessibility to drugs especially in developing countries, high safety concerns and high treatment cost associated with incretin-based drugs are likely some of the restraints of incretin-based drugs market.

Working in parallel, these agencies have reviewed epidemiologic data, clinical trial data and nonclinical toxicology studies related to blood glucose lowering drug products like exenatide and sitagliptin which are incretin-based drugs that stimulate postprandial insulin release by potentiating the incretin hormone pathways. The results highlighted that these incretin-based drugs reduce body weight and have better cardiovascular outcomes.
