Market Insights
Rising Approvals of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Drugs Drives Market Growth
- In September 2022, Toray Industries, Inc. received approval from China’s National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) for Careload tablets to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Careload is an orally administered sustained-release formulation of beraprost sodium, a prostacyclin derivative (PGI2).
- In May 2022, United Therapeutic Corporation received US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for Tyvaso DPI (treprostinil) inhalation powder to treat pulmonary hypertension associated with interstitial lung disease (PH-ILD; WHO Group 3) and pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH; WHO Group 1) to enhance exercise ability.
- In November 2021, the US FDA granted tentative approval for Yutrepia (treprostinil) inhalation powder. Yutrepia is indicated to treat PAH to improve exercise ability in adult patients with New York Heart Association (NYHA) Functional Class II-III symptoms.
- In July 2021, The Janssen Pharmaceutical Companies of Johnson & Johnson received FDA approval for UPTRAVI (selexipag) injection for intravenous (IV) to treat PAH; WHO Group I in adult patients with WHO functional class (FC) II–III, who are temporarily unable to take oral therapy.
- In August 2021, Aerami Therapeutics, Inc. announced that the FDA granted the company orphan drug designation for imatinib to treat PAH patients. AER– 901, a drug-device combination product candidate for inhaled imatinib for the treatment of PAH, is in a Phase 1 trial with completion targeted for the end of 2021.
The rising approvals of pulmonary arterial hypertension drugs across the world boost the growth of the pulmonary arterial hypertension market.
Drug-Based Insights
Based on drug, the pulmonary arterial hypertension market is segmented into endothelin receptor antagonists (ERAs), prostacyclin and prostacyclin analogs, sGC stimulators, and pde-5 dipsticks. The prostacyclin and prostacyclin analogs segment held the largest market share in 2021 and is anticipated to register the highest CAGR during 2022–2028. Prostacyclin is a small lipid eicosanoid molecule, also known as prostaglandin, I-2 (PGI-2), produced by endothelial cells and acts locally, inhibiting platelet activation and causing vasodilation. Prostacyclin dilates blood vessels, improves blood flow by preventing the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells, and prevents blood clotting by inhibiting platelet aggregation. Prostacyclin analogs have been developed as therapies for PAH. PAH prostacyclin analogs are synthetic forms of prostacyclin, a natural substance produced in the body. Patients affected by PAH tend to have reduced prostacyclin levels, leading to blood vessel constriction and hypertension. PAH prostacyclin analogs supplement the requirement and mimic the action of natural prostacyclin to reduce pulmonary hypertension and reduce associated symptoms.

Based on type, the pulmonary arterial hypertension market is bifurcated into branded and generics. The branded segment held a larger market share in 2021 and is expected to register a higher CAGR during the forecast period. A drug company sells a branded drug under a specific name or trademark and that is protected by a patent. Brand-name drugs may be available by prescription or over the counter. Riociguat, sold under the brand name Adempas, is Bayer's medication stimulator of soluble guanylate cyclase. It is used to treat two forms of pulmonary hypertension—chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension and pulmonary arterial hypertension.
Route of Administration-Based Insights
Based on route of administration, the pulmonary arterial hypertension market is segmented into oral, intravenous/subcutaneous, and inhalational. The oral segment held the largest market share in 2021 and is anticipated to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Orally administered agents used for the treatment of symptomatic, moderate-to-severe PAH include sildenafil and the endothelin (ET) receptor antagonists (ERAs), bosentan and sitaxentan (sitaxsentan), and abrisentan oral ET(A) receptor-selective ERA, with higher ET receptor affinity than bosentan. Moreover, new oral drugs for treating PAH include macitentan, riociguat, and treprostinil. Ambrisentan is an endothelin receptor antagonist indicated for treating PAH; WHO Group 1 and delay clinical worsening. In combination with tadalafil, ambrisentan is indicated to reduce the risks of disease progression and hospitalization for worsening PAH, and to improve exercise ability.
Distribution Channel-Based Insights
Based on distribution channel, the pulmonary arterial hypertension market is segmented into hospital pharmacies and clinics, online pharmacies, and retail pharmacies. The hospital pharmacies and clinics segment held the largest market share in 2021 and is anticipated to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Hospital pharmacy strives to continuously maintain and improve patients' medication management and pharmaceutical care to the highest standards in a hospital setting. Pharmacists in this field are responsible for dispensing medications, quality testing, formulating and re-formulating dosage forms, monitoring, reporting drug safety, and preparing budgets for medications.
The pulmonary arterial hypertension market players adopt organic strategies, such as product launch and expansion, to expand their footprint and product portfolio across the world and meet the growing demand. Inorganic growth strategies witnessed in the market are partnerships and collaborations. These growth strategies have allowed the market players to expand their businesses and enhance their geographic presence. Additionally, acquisitions, partnerships, and other growth strategies help strengthen the company’s customer base and increase its product portfolio.

Frequently Asked Questions
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a rare, progressive disorder characterized by high blood pressure (hypertension) in the lungs' arteries. The increased pressure in the vessels may be caused by an obstruction in the lung's small arteries for various reasons. The exact cause of PAH is unknown, and although treatable, there is no permanent cure for the disease. PAH usually affects women between the ages of 30-60. However, individuals with PAH may go years without a diagnosis, either because the symptoms may be mild, nonspecific, or only present during demanding exercise.
The factors driving the growth of pulmonary arterial hypertension are the growing incidence of pulmonary arterial hypertension and the rising approvals of pulmonary arterial hypertension drugs.
The side effects of drugs used for treating pulmonary arterial hypertension are expected to restrict the pulmonary arterial hypertension market growth during the forecast period.
Pulmonary arterial hypertension majorly consists of the players, such as Johnson & Johnson, Gilead Sciences Inc, United Therapeutics Corp, Bayer AG, Aerami Therapeutics Holdings Inc, Novartis AG, GSK Plc, Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd, Lupin Ltd, and Pfizer Inc.
Based on drugs, the pulmonary arterial hypertension market is segmented into prostacyclin and prostacyclin analogs, endothelin receptor antagonists (ERAs), sGC stimulators, and pde-5 dipsticks. In 2021, the prostacyclin and prostacyclin analogs segment accounted for a larger market share. Also, the same segment is anticipated to register a higher CAGR during the forecast period as the PAH prostacyclin analogs are used as medications to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), a condition of high blood pressure in the arteries that carry deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs.
The global pulmonary arterial hypertension based on regions is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East & Africa, and South & Central America. In 2021, North America held the largest market share. However, the Asia Pacific region is estimated to grow at the fastest CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period.
