hERG Screening Market Expands as Drug Safety Assessment Becomes a Global Priority

Growing focus on cardiotoxicity testing, rising drug development activity, and stringent regulatory guidelines are driving demand for hERG screening technologies worldwide.

Introduction
The hERG Screening Market is witnessing solid growth due to increasing emphasis on early-stage cardiac safety assessment in drug discovery. The hERG (Human Ether-à-go-go Related Gene) potassium channel plays a crucial role in cardiac repolarization, and its inhibition is linked to life-threatening arrhythmias. As a result, pharmaceutical companies and CROs are integrating hERG screening into preclinical and clinical pipelines to ensure drug safety and regulatory compliance.

Key Takeaways
• hERG inhibition testing is mandatory in global drug development to avoid cardiac risk.
• High-throughput screening (HTS) and automated electrophysiology platforms boost adoption.
• Pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies remain the largest end users.
• North America leads; Asia-Pacific shows fastest growth due to expanding R&D hubs.
• Recent advancements include stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes and AI-driven toxicity prediction models.

Market Story
Cardiotoxicity remains one of the leading causes of drug withdrawal and late-stage clinical failure. To mitigate risk, regulatory bodies such as the FDA, EMA, and ICH mandate ion-channel screening-including hERG assays-to identify compounds that may cause QT interval prolongation.

Technology advancements such as automated patch-clamp systems, fluorescence-based assays, and human iPSC-derived cardiac cells are transforming screening accuracy and efficiency. Pharmaceutical companies, CROs, and academic research institutes are rapidly scaling up hERG testing to accelerate drug approvals, reduce attrition rates, and ensure compliance with global safety guidelines.
