<strong>Nonalcoholic</strong> <strong>Steatohepatitis</strong> (NASH)<br />

<strong>Therapeutics</strong> <strong>Market</strong> to Reach<br />

US$20.27 bn by 2025, Elafibranor<br />

Projected to Spur Growth<br />

According to a new market report published by Transparency<br />

<strong>Market</strong> Research “<strong>Nonalcoholic</strong> <strong>Steatohepatitis</strong> <strong>Therapeutics</strong><br />

<strong>Market</strong> - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends,<br />

and Forecast 2015 - 2025”, the nonalcoholic steatohepatitis<br />

(NASH) therapeutics market is anticipated to expand at a CAGR<br />

of 10.7% from 2015 to 2025 to reach US$20.27 bn by 2025.<br />

There are a few key causes of a fatty liver, one of which is nonalcoholic<br />

fatty liver disease. It occurs when excessive alcohol<br />

consumption causes large deposits of fat in the liver. It is one of<br />

the most commonly linked diseases to alcoholism and also one<br />

of the most commonly found liver disorders in developed<br />

economies. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is caused<br />

by reasons linked to metabolic issues and insulin resistance.<br />

Obesity is another factor that can significantly increase the<br />

chances of contracting NAFLD.<br />

According to the National Health and Nutrition Examination<br />

Survey, the rate of NAFLD in the U.S. within 2011 and 2012<br />

was nearly 30%. In cases where NAFLD was not detected in<br />

time and reached higher levels of complications, non-alcoholic


steatohepatitis (NASH) can occur. It is the most extreme form of<br />

non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and is a direct causative factor<br />

for liver cirrhosis.<br />

NAFLD by itself can be treated successfully if detected in time.<br />

NASH, on the other hand, needs special care. The global nonalcoholic<br />

steatohepatitis therapeutics market is expected to reach<br />

US$20.2 bn by the end of 2025. It is expanding at a CAGR of<br />

10.70% between 2015 and 2025.<br />

Elafibranor Propels Global NASH <strong>Market</strong><br />

The major segments of the market by drug type include<br />

Saroglitazar, Aramchol, Elafibranor, Obeticholic acid, and<br />

potential drug candidates in phase III. Elafibranor is expected to<br />

lead the market in the near future by being the largest and fastest<br />

growing segment of the global non-alcoholic steatohepatitis<br />

therapeutics market. Elafibranor is currently the most advanced<br />

and most effective drug in this market and is expected to exhibit<br />

the highest CAGR of all the various drug types.


There are no treatments that are specifically used for nonalcoholic<br />

steatohepatitis. Apart from the various drugs used for<br />

the treatment of fatty liver, doctors often suggest the patient to<br />

start losing weight if they are overweight. Other suggestions<br />

given include completely avoiding alcohol, consuming a<br />

balanced diet, and increasing physical activity.<br />

NASH and NAFLD Linked to Obesity<br />

Medical records are pointing to an increasing prevalence of<br />

NAFLD and NASH across the world. However, these issues are<br />

more common in developed economies such as North America.<br />

This is due to the larger percentage of the obese population in<br />

the total population in developed regions than others.<br />

The global non-alcoholic steatohepatitis therapeutics market is,<br />

therefore, developing at a higher rate in countries such as the<br />

U.S., owing to the higher demand for NASH and NAFLD<br />

treatment options. The healthcare industry in these regions is<br />

taking fatty liver complications a lot more seriously.<br />

In the recent past, the number of obese adults and children in the<br />

U.S. have doubled and tripled, respectively. This is a major


issue, as obese patients who suffer from NFALD or NASH are<br />

also likely to suffer from high blood cholesterol and diabetes.<br />

Apart from obesity, patients of glucose intolerance and<br />

dyslipidemia are also prone to suffer from NFALD and NASH.<br />

There is no clear link that points to the reason NFALD occurs,<br />

but it is currently suggested that insulin resistance has a major<br />

role to play in it. In spite of the severity of the disease, patients<br />

are largely asymptomatic until complications arise. Therefore,<br />

the best preventive measure against NFALD and NASH is to<br />

lead a healthy life and moderate alcohol consumption.<br />

The key players in this market that are expected to play a major<br />

role in the market’s immediate future include Tobira<br />

<strong>Therapeutics</strong>, Inc., Conatus Pharmaceuticals, Immuron Ltd.,<br />

Zydus Cadila, Gilead Sciences, Inc., GENFIT SA, Galmed<br />

Pharmaceuticals Ltd., Intercept Pharmaceuticals Inc., and<br />

Astazeneca Plc.<br />
