The global hyperlipidemia drugs market size is expected reach USD 22.6 billion by 2022, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc., expanding at a CAGR of 2.3% during the forecast period. Several factors, such as increase in target population and growth in awareness about risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) due to persistent hypercholesterolemia, are stoking the growth of the market.
Hyperlipidemia is the most common type of dyslipidemia and is generally caused by abnormally high lipid levels in the blood. This condition can occur due to genetic factors (primary hyperlipidemia) as well as other factors such as poor diet and unhealthy lifestyle (secondary hyperlipidemia). Statins are the first line of treatment for secondary hyperlipidemia.
Target population of antihyperlipidemic drugs is broadly divided into statin users and nonstatin users. The revenue share of statin users has been declining. The nonstatin users segment consists of statin intolerant and nonresponsive population as well as familial hyperlipidemia (FH) population. Nonstatin users are seeking high-efficacy alternatives and this is anticipated to boost the revenue of this segment.
Upcoming patent expirations are expected to lead to greater genericization in the market, mostly among statins, cholesterol absorption inhibitors, and combination drugs. However, new product launches are anticipated to continue to drive the market. Several novel mechanisms of action such as ACL inhibition, DGAT2 inhibition, and anti-ANGPTL-3 are being investigated for their potential for treatment of hyperlipidemia as well as for reducing the risk of CVD.
