Heart Failure Market: Epidemiology, Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity, and Forecast 2024-2034

The heart failure market reached a value of US$ 6.6 Billion across the top 7 markets (US, EU4, UK, and Japan) in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the top 7 markets to reach US$ 18.5 Billion by 2034, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 9.81% during 2024-2034.

The heart failure market has been comprehensively analyzed in IMARC's new report titled "Heart Failure Market: Epidemiology, Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity, and Forecast 2024-2034". Heart failure, also referred to as congestive heart failure, is a chronic, progressive condition in which the heart cannot pump enough blood to meet the body's requirements. This can happen due to a variety of factors, such as high blood pressure, damage to the heart muscle, or a previous heart attack. Heart failure is classified into two types: heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). While HFpEF results from a stiff left ventricle that cannot fill with blood appropriately, HFrEF happens when the heart's left ventricle is unable to pump blood efficiently. Some of the symptoms of heart failure include shortness of breath, swelling in the legs and feet, fatigue, and rapid or irregular heartbeat. An electrocardiogram (ECG), echocardiography, chest x-ray, and blood tests may be performed to identify heart failure. The treatment typically includes a combination of lifestyle changes, such as adopting a heart-healthy diet and engaging in regular exercise, as well as medication to improve the heart's ability to pump blood. In some cases, surgery, including a heart transplant or a procedure to implant a heart pump, may be required.

The expanding geriatric population, who are more susceptible to diabetes and chronic cardiovascular diseases, is primarily driving the global heart failure market. In addition to this, the increasing prevalence of heart problems among the masses owing to obesity and lack of physical activities is also bolstering the market growth. Moreover, the rising incidences of several associated risk factors, such as excessive smoking and drinking of alcoholic beverages, along with the unhealthy dietary habits of individuals, are propelling the occurrence of heart problems, which is further catalyzing the global market. Apart from this, the emerging popularity of angiotensin-converting-enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, which work by relaxing the blood vessels and allowing the heart to pump blood more easily, is also creating a positive outlook for the market. Additionally, the widespread adoption of diuretics to remove excess fluid from the body, which can help to reduce heart failure symptoms, is further augmenting the global market. Besides this, several key players are making significant investments in introducing new drugs, such as sacubitril/valsartan, to lower the risk of cardiovascular mortality and heart failure in adult patients. This, in turn, is also acting as a significant growth-inducing factor. Furthermore, the increasing utilization of left ventricular assist device (LVAD) as a bridge to transplantation or as a destination therapy for patients who are not candidates for transplantation is expected to drive the global heart failure market in the coming years.

IMARC Group's new report provides an exhaustive analysis of the heart failure market in the United States, EU4 (Germany, Spain, Italy, and France), United Kingdom, and Japan. This includes treatment practices, in-market, and pipeline drugs, share of individual therapies, market performance across the seven major markets, market performance of key companies and their drugs, etc. The report also provides the current and future patient pool across the seven major markets. According to the report, the United States has the largest patient pool for heart failure and also represents the largest market for its treatment. Furthermore, the current treatment practice/algorithm, market drivers, challenges, opportunities, reimbursement scenario, unmet medical needs, etc., have also been provided in the report. This report is a must-read for manufacturers, investors, business strategists, researchers, consultants, and all those who have any kind of stake or are planning to foray into the heart failure market in any manner.

Recent Developments:
In March 2024, Novo Nordisk and Cardior Pharmaceuticals announced that Novo Nordisk agreed to acquire Cardior Pharmaceuticals and strengthen its pipeline in cardiovascular disease. The acquisition includes Cardior's flagship candidate, CDR132L, which is currently in phase 2 clinical evaluation for the therapy of heart failure. CDR132L is intended to prevent and partially restore cellular pathology by selectively suppressing abnormal levels of the microRNA molecule miR-132 to enhance cardiac function.
In December 2023, BiVACOR secured FDA approval for its Total Artificial Heart (BTAH) IDE first-in-human early feasibility study (EFS). The BTAH device is designed to take over all functions for individuals suffering from heart failure.
In August 2023, Novo Nordisk announced the headline results from the SELECT cardiovascular outcomes trial. The study found that semaglutide, an antidiabetic and weight-reduction medicine, can help individuals with heart failure and obesity lose weight while also relieving symptoms and increasing exercise capacity.
In May 2023, the FDA approved sotagliflozin (Inpefa) from Lexicon Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a once-daily tablet indicated to lower the likelihood of cardiovascular death, heart failure hospitalization, and urgent heart failure visits in adults with cardiovascular disease.
In February 2023, Cytokinetics, Incorporated declared that the U.S. FDA issued a Complete Response Letter (CRL) on the New Drug Application (NDA) for omecamtiv mecarbil, an investigational, potent, small molecule cardiac myosin activator for the management of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).

Key Highlights:
Heart failure affects more than 65 million people worldwide and is most commonly caused by heart conditions like ischemic heart disease, cardiomyopathy, or high blood pressure.
Heart failure affects around 6.7 million Americans over the age of 20, and the number is anticipated to increase to 8.5 million by 2030.
The lifetime risk of heart failure has risen to 24%; approximately 1 in every 4 individuals will develop heart failure in their lifetime.
The prevalence of heart failure, as examined by systematic echocardiographic screening, is significantly higher, even reaching 11.8% in a meta-analysis.
Heart failure directly causes around 8.5% of all heart disease deaths in the United States.

Drugs:
Atacand (candesartan cilexetil) is a type of angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) used to treat heart failure (NYHA class II-IV) in individuals with left ventricular systolic dysfunction (ejection fraction ≤ 40%). It is intended to prevent cardiovascular deaths and hospitalizations. It inhibits the vasoconstrictor and aldosterone-secreting effects of angiotensin II by selectively blocking its binding to the AT1 receptor in various tissues, including vascular smooth muscle and the adrenal gland.

Mitiperstat is under clinical development by AstraZeneca for heart failure with left ventricular ejection fraction and diastolic heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. It is a small medicinal substance administered orally in the form of a coated tablet, solution, or suspension. This drug candidate works by targeting myeloperoxidase (MPO) in patients.

Omecamtiv mecarbil is a potent small-molecule cardiac myosin activator. This drug is designed to specifically target the contractile process, or pumping activity, of the heart. By activating cardiac myosin, a protein that converts chemical energy into a mechanical force that causes the heart to contract, omecamtiv mecarbil may enhance cardiac muscle performance. Preclinical studies have revealed that cardiac myosin activators boost cardiac contractility without changing the concentrations of intracellular myocyte calcium or myocardial oxygen consumption.
