Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) Market – Global Industry Insights, Trends, Outlook, and Opportunity Analysis, 2016–2024

Pulmonary hypertension or PH is a condition in which the blood pressure rises in the pulmonary artery, vein, or capillaries (collectively known as lung vasculature), which might lead to shortness of breath, fainting, leg swelling, and dizziness, among others. Pulmonary hypertension may be a relentless disease with a noticeable reduction in exercise tolerance. Pulmonary arterial hypertension or PAH indicates that the patient has high blood pressure in arteries that carry blood from the heart to the lungs. With PAH, the arteries in the lungs become thin or get blocked resulting into irregular blood flow. Since the flow of blood is hindered, it becomes hard for the blood to flow evenly thereby, increasing the blood pressure in the patient. In layman terms, it means that the heart works harder to pump blood. It may lead to weakening of the heart muscles after a certain period of time. Ultimately, pulmonary arterial hypertension may cause heart failure.

Based on the reports gathered from a variety of sources, including CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) and WHO (World Health Organization), the global prevalence of pulmonary arterial hypertension is projected to be 100,000 – 200,000, that is about 15 - 50 patients per million of the population. Even though, the treatment available for pulmonary arterial hypertension is rather limited, various treatment options are available to decrease symptoms, slow down disease progression, and improve the quality of life. Endothelin receptor antagonists or ERAs, phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE-5) inhibitors and Prostacyclin and prostacyclin analogs are some of the widely prescribed drug classes used for treatment of the disease. Lately, a new drug class known as the soluble guanylate cyclase or sGC stimulators has been recognized to be effective in treating people with PAH.

On the contrary, the expiry of patents of major pulmonary arterial hypertension drugs such as Letairis, Tracleer, Tyvaso, and Adcirca is projected to pose a challenge for the growth of the market, as the generic versions of these drugs will be sold at 70% to 80% lower prices than that of the present branded drugs. Various breakthrough therapies for treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension is projected to be a growth factor for the PAH treatment drug manufacturers, since the available drugs for the same are not sufficient to meet the patient’s needs. These factors will fuel growth of the PAH market and increase the demand for PAH treatment drugs.

ERAs was the largest segment in the current scenario.

This would propel the overall growth of the PAH market in the near future.

North America accounted for the largest market share of the global PAH treatment market, followed by Europe. These regional market are projected to witness considerable growth in the forecast period, owing to the freshly approved PAH medicines in the market and high prevalence of heart diseases.

Some of the major companies operating in the pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) market in the current scenario are Actelion Pharmaceuticals, Ltd., Gilead Sciences, Inc., United Therapeutics Corporation, Bayer HealthCare, Pfizer, Inc., Novartis International AG and GlaxoSmithKline plc.
