ACS Disease Understanding and Treatment Algorithm

ACS Overview

Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) is a term for a group of conditions that suddenly stop or severely reduce blood from flowing to the heart muscle. When blood cannot flow to the heart muscle, the heart muscle can be damaged. Heart attack and unstable angina are both ACS. Other ACS conditions include ST-elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) and non-ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction (NSTEMI). It is a type of Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) which is responsible for one-third of total deaths in people older than 35. Some forms of CHD can be asymptomatic, but ACS is always symptomatic.

The blockage is usually due to a blood clot and can be sudden and complete. If a clot forms due to a plaque rupture, a part of the clot may break away and clog one of the coronary arteries, causing ACS. Though less common, spasms in the coronary artery may also limit blood flow. Regardless of the cause of the blockage, it is damaging to the heart and a medical emergency.

ACS Diagnosis

The first step of evaluation is an electrocardiogram, which helps differentiate between STEMI and NSTEMI unstable angina. American Heart Association guidelines maintain that any patient with complaints suspicious of ACS should get an electrocardiogram within 10 min of arrival. Cath lab should be activated as soon as STEMI is confirmed in a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) center. Cardiac enzymes, especially troponin, CK-MB/CK ratio are important in assessing the NSTEMI versus myocardial ischemia without tissue destruction. A chest x-ray is useful in diagnosing causes other than myocardial infarction presenting with chest pain like pneumonia and pneumothorax.

Further details related to diagnosis will be provided in the report…

ACS Treatment

The initial treatment for all ACS includes aspirin (300 mg), heparin bolus, and intravenous heparin infusion if there are no contraindications to the same. Antiplatelet therapy with ticagrelor or clopidogrel is also recommended. The choice depends on the local cardiologist's preference. Ticagrelor is not given to the patients receiving thrombolysis. Supportive measures like pain control with morphine/ fentanyl and oxygen in case of hypoxia are provided as required. Nitroglycerin sublingual or infusion can be used for pain relief as well. In cases of inferior wall ischemia, nitroglycerine can cause severe hypotension and should be used with extreme caution, if at all. Continuous cardiac monitoring for arrhythmia is warranted.

Further treatment of ACS depends on whether it is a STEMI/NSTEMI or unstable angina. The American Heart Association recommends an emergent catheterization and percutaneous intervention for STEMI with door to procedure start time of fewer than 90 min. A thrombolytic (tenecteplase or other thrombolytic) is recommended if there is no percutaneous intervention available and the patient cannot be transferred to the catheterization lab in less than 120 min. American Heart Association guideline dictates the door-to-needle (TNK/other thrombolytic) time to be less than 30 min.

Further details related to treatment will be provided in the report…

ACS Epidemiology

The ACS epidemiology chapter in the report provides historical as well as forecasted epidemiology segmented by the Total Incident Cases of ACS, Type-specific Incidence of ACS, Type-specific Incidence of AMI and Gender-specific Incidence of ACS in the 7MM covering the United States, EU4 (Germany, France, Italy, and Spain) and the United Kingdom, and Japan from 2020 to 2034.

The total incident cases of ACS in the United States is estimated to be ~1,306,700 in 2023. The cases are expected to increase by 2034.

In EU4 and the UK, the incident cases of ACS were ~514,410 cases in males and ~269,750 cases in females in 2023.

There were ~45,700 cases of STEMI and ~34,500 cases of NSTEMI in Japan in 2023.

ACS Drug Chapters

Marketed Drugs

LODOCO (colchicine): AGEPHA Pharma

Colchicine—an anti-inflammatory alkaloid—has assumed an important role in the management of cardiovascular inflammation after its first medicinal use in ancient Egypt. Primarily used in high doses for the treatment of acute gout flares during the 20th century, research in the early 21st century demonstrated that low-dose colchicine effectively treats acute gout attacks, lowers the risk of recurrent pericarditis, and can add to secondary prevention of major adverse cardiovascular events. As the first FDA-approved targeted anti-inflammatory cardiovascular therapy, colchicine currently has a unique role in the management of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.

In June 2023, the US FDA approved LODOCO as the first anti-inflammatory atheroprotective cardiovascular treatment demonstrated to reduce the risk of myocardial infarction, stroke, coronary revascularization, and cardiovascular death in adult patients with established atherosclerotic disease or with multiple risk factors for cardiovascular disease.

REPATHA (evolocumab): Amgen

REPATHA is a human monoclonal antibody that inhibits proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9). Over the last decade, inhibition of proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) has emerged as a promising target to reduce residual cardiovascular disease risk. In December 2017, the US FDA approved REPATHA to prevent heart attacks, strokes, and coronary revascularizations in adults with established cardiovascular disease. And later in May 2018, the European Commission also approved a new indication in the REPATHA label for adults with established atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (myocardial infarction, stroke, or peripheral arterial disease) to reduce cardiovascular risk by lowering low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels.

Emerging Drugs

Dalcetrapib (RO4607381): DalCor Pharmaceuticals and Roche

Dalcetrapib is an investigational therapy that would potentially be the first pharmacogenomic precision medicine in cardiovascular disease to reduce cardiovascular risk. Dalcetrapib, while under development by Roche, was evaluated in Phase III, a double-blind clinical trial, dal-OUTCOMES, that showed positive outcomes.

In September 2023, DalCor Pharmaceuticals announced the closing of a USD 80 million Series D financing round. This funding was utilized towards conducting the Dal-GenE-2 confirmatory trial in North America through a Special Protocol Assessment (SPA) agreement with the US FDA.

Dutogliptin: Recardio

Dutogliptin (REC-01), developed by Recardio, is a potent and selective DPP4 inhibitor. Dutogliptin is administered via SC injection; the protein belongs to the class of enzyme inhibitors called gliptins or DPP-IV inhibitors. The combination of G-CSF with dutogliptin significantly enhanced survival and reduced infarct size in the preclinical model. Once the diagnosis of AMI is confirmed and percutaneous intervention and stent implantation are completed, the patient receives or can self-administer daily SC injection of dutogliptin for 2 weeks in co-administration with G-CSF for 5 days.

In March 2024, Recardio completed the first partnering agreements, closing with regional partners outside of its key territories US and Europe. The selected regional partners will be involved in the global pivotal Phase III study for Recardio’s lead therapeutic candidate, dutogliptin, which is being developed for the treatment of AMI.

Drug Class Insight

P2Y12 inhibitor

The standard treatment for ACS involves DAPT, combining aspirin with a P2Y12 inhibitor. This combination significantly lowers the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) following PCI. P2Y12 inhibitors block the P2Y12 receptor on platelets, which is activated by adenosine diphosphate (ADP). This inhibition prevents platelet activation and aggregation, thereby reducing thrombus formation.

DPP4 inhibitor

DPP-4 inhibitors have been shown to exert cardio protective effects, which may be beneficial in the context of ACS. They can improve endothelial function, reduce inflammation, and modulate atherosclerosis progression by lowering plasma lipid levels and suppressing pro-inflammatory cytokines. DPP-4 inhibitors may influence platelet reactivity. In patients with diabetes and acute myocardial infarction (AMI), DPP-4 inhibitors did not significantly change platelet activation when combined with standard antiplatelet therapy, indicating their potential role in maintaining effective platelet inhibition during ACS treatment.

Further detailed analysis will be provided in the report….

ACS Market Outlook

Treatment of ACS is designed to relieve distress, interrupt thrombosis, reverse ischemia, limit infarct size, reduce cardiac workload, and prevent and treat complications. Treatment includes revascularization (with percutaneous coronary intervention, coronary artery bypass grafting, or fibrinolytic therapy) and pharmacologic therapy to treat ACS and underlying coronary artery disease.

Antiplatelet and antithrombotic drugs, which stop clots from forming, are used routinely. Anti-ischemic drugs (eg, beta-blockers, IV nitroglycerin) are frequently added, particularly when chest pain or hypertension is present. AMI carries a common manifestation of CVD in the elderly with an increased risk of mortality, morbidity, and excess costs. Currently, there are multiple effective management options following myocardial infarction, and guidelines recommend lifelong pharmaceutical prevention with beta-blockers, ACE inhibitors or angiotensin II receptor blockers, acetylsalicylic acid, and statins if not contraindicated.

The pharmacologic treatment of AMI can be broken down into several groups of medications that improve survival, decrease recurrent ischemic events, and provide symptomatic relief. The primary treatment is followed by multimodal regimen therapies. Unstable angina results from acute obstruction of a coronary artery without myocardial infarction. Symptoms include chest discomfort with or without dyspnea, nausea, and diaphoresis. Treatment is with antiplatelets, anticoagulants, nitrates, statins, and beta-blockers. Coronary angiography with percutaneous intervention or coronary artery bypass surgery is often necessary.

The current market has been segmented accordingly into different commonly used therapeutic classes based on the prevailing treatment pattern across the 7MM, which presents itself with minor variations in the overall prescription pattern. Antiplatelet agents, Anticoagulants, Vasodilators, Beta Blockers, Lipid-lowering drugs, ACE, ARBs, and Calcium channel blockers are the major classes that have been covered in the forecast model.

The market for ACS treatments is projected to grow significantly over the next few years with pharmaceutical companies like, and others actively developing and marketing ACS therapies.

Among the 7MM, the US accounted for the largest market size of ACS. i.e., USD ~2150 million in 2023.

Among EU4 and the UK, Germany accounted for the highest market size in 2023, while Spain occupied the lowest.

The pipeline for ACS is diverse and consist of innovative therapies including Antiplatelet agents, Anticoagulants, Vasodilators, Beta Blockers, Lipid-lowering drugs, Angiotensin-converting Enzyme Inhibitors (ACE), Angiotensin-II receptor Blockers (ARBs), and Calcium channel blockers, and others.

In 2034, among all the emerging therapies, the highest revenue is expected to be generated by Lipid-lowering drugs in the 7MM.

Key Updates

As reported in April 2024, the EMPACT-MI trial found that JARDIANCE (empagliflozin) did not significantly reduce the composite risk of all-cause mortality and heart failure hospitalization in patients with AMI at increased risk of heart failure when compared to a placebo.

In February 2024, CSL announced top-line results from the Phase III AEGIS-II trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of CSL112 (apolipoprotein A-I [human]) compared to placebo in reducing the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients following AMI. The study did not meet its primary efficacy endpoint of MACE reduction at 90 days. As a result, there are no plans for a near-term regulatory filing. There were no major safety or tolerability concerns with CSL112.

According to the news released in September 2023, DalCor Pharmaceuticals expects an interim efficacy analysis of Dal-GenE-2 in 2026 and aims to complete the trial by 2027.

In September 2023, DalCor Pharmaceuticals announced the closing of a USD 80 million Series D financing round. This funding was utilized towards conducting the Dal-GenE-2 confirmatory trial in North America through a Special Protocol Assessment (SPA) agreement with the US FDA.
