Acromegaly - Drug Pipeline Landscape, 2023
Acromegaly is a rare hormonal condition that results from an excess amount of growth hormone (GH) in the body. The extra amount of GH causes excess growth in the bones and soft tissues of the body. Children with the condition can grow to abnormal heights.
The most common cause of acromegaly is a tumor in your pituitary gland called a pituitary adenoma that causes pituitary gland to release excess growth hormone (GH). Pituitary adenomas (tumors) are almost always benign (noncancerous).
Acromegaly affects body's bones and tissues and causes them to grow in irregular ways. Symptoms include changes in face shape, including a more prominent jaw and/or forehead, increase in size of lips, nose and/or tongue, Excessive sweating or oily skin and deepening of voice.
IGF test and Oral glucose tolerance test are commonly suggested for the diagnosis of Acromegaly. Imaging tests like magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography scan are used for diagnosis.
There are several treatment options for acromegaly. The most common treatments for acromegaly are surgery, medication and radiation therapy.
There are many companies active in development of Acromegaly Drugs such as Camarus AB, Crinetics Pharmaceuticals Inc etc.
Major pharmaceutical companies are involved in the development of potential drug candidates to improve the Acromegaly treatment such as Octreotide, Paltusotine, Cimdelirsen and others. Key players involved in the development of therapies to treat acromegaly are Camurus AB, Crinetics Pharmaceuticals Inc, Genevant Sciences Ltd, Ionis Pharmaceuticals Inc, Ono Pharmaceutical Co Ltd and others. Two drugs are under late clinical-stage Phase III clinical trials and four drugs are in phase II and some other drugs are under preclinical and discovery stages of development.
