Angina Market Trends

Global Angina Market Overview

Angina Market Size was valued at USD 0.52 Billion in 2023. The Global Angina industry is projected to grow from USD 0.72 Billion in 2024 to USD 2.13 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.52% during the forecast period (2024 - 2032).

Angina is a significant symptom of the coronary artery disease and is described as squeezing, tightness, and heaviness of the chest. It is a type of chest pain, which is caused by a reduced flow of blood to the heart. Fatigue, shortness of breath, nausea, and sweating are some of the common symptoms of angina. The increasing prevalence of angina and the growing healthcare expenditure are the major drivers for the market growth. According to the report of the American Heart Association of 2016, the prevalence of angina in West Virginia was estimated to be around 6.2% and around 2.3% in Hawaii. Moreover, the growing geriatric and obese population followed by the increasing prevalence of coronary heart diseases provide favorable backgrounds for market growth. 

According to the World Health Organization, the total number of people who age 65 or more is projected to increase from 524 million in 2010 to approximately 1.5 billion by 2050. Additionally, according to a study published in the Annals of Translational Medicine Journal approximately 15.5 million people who aged 20 years or more within the U.S. suffered from the coronary heart disease, in 2016. However, factors such as low per capita healthcare expenditure and high cost for therapeutic procedures such as coronary bypass surgery are estimated to restraint the market growth during the forecast period. According to a study published by the Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery in 2017, the average total cost for coronary bypass surgery was estimated to be ~USD 7,992.

March 2024: Auxilius Pharma intends to file an investigational new drug (IND) application for AUX-001, with the aim of commencing a Phase Ib trial for chronic stable angina pectoris (CSAP). According to CEO Jed Litwiniuk, the business aims to commence the Phase Ib trial in either Q4 2024 or early Q1 2025, shortly after obtaining IND approval from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), as reported by the Clinical Trials Arena. Auxilius Pharma has developed AUX-001, a once-daily formulation of nicorandil specifically designed for patients suffering from chronic stable angina pectoris. AUX-001 is an orally administered, extended-release formulation of Roche's nicorandil, which was initially synthesized by Chugai Pharmaceutical. Chugai Pharmaceutical planned to introduce it to the United States. Roche purchased the firm but decided to discontinue the cardiovascular portfolio and hence disposed of the project. The Phase Ib trial will focus on bioequivalence research, specifically evaluating the pharmacokinetics of AUX-001 over a period of one month. The experiment will involve around 35 healthy volunteers. The study must demonstrate that the once-daily AUX-001 is pharmacokinetically equal to the twice-daily product.

February 2024: Zydus Lifesciences Ltd said that it has obtained final permission from the US health agency to produce and sell its generic Isosorbide Mononitrate extended-release tablets.

Zydus Lifesciences has received approval from the US Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) to produce and sell Isosorbide Mononitrate Extended-Release in strengths of 30 mg, 60 mg, and 120 mg, according to a regulatory filing. Isosorbide mononitrate is administered to mitigate angina, a symptom of coronary artery disease, in patients with this specific heart condition. The product will be produced in the group's formulation manufacturing facility located in Ahmedabad SEZ.
