Key Highlights from Technavio

Global Orthostatic Hypotension Drugs Market 2019-2023: Request a sample report

  • The increasing prevalence of chronic diseases will also contribute to the growth of the orthostatic hypotension (OH) drugs market as orthostatic hypotension is associated with various neurodegenerative diseases, cardiovascular diseases, and conditions such as diabetes.
  • North America will account for the highest OH drugs market share throughout the forecast period due to factors such as high per capita pharmaceutical expenditure, strong market presence of leading vendors, access to advanced healthcare, and increasing awareness about OH.
  • The Northera (Droxidopa) segment will grow faster and emerge as the market leader by the end of the forecast period as it can activate alpha-1 adrenergic receptors and have numerous physiological effects that may ameliorate the symptoms of nOH.

Global MEK Inhibitors Market 2019-2023: Request a sample report

  • The high target affinity and specificity of MEK inhibitors will contribute to the growth of the market as approved therapies for the treatment of advanced or metastatic carcinomas, such as melanoma and NSCLC, have a low patient adherence due to their side effects.
  • The MEKINIST segment will account for the highest MEK inhibitors market share. The increasing sale of MEKINIST because of the expansion of research indications focusing on new patient pools will be one of the significant factors driving the growth of the MEK inhibitors market in this segment.
  • North America will account for the highest MEK inhibitors market share throughout the forecast period due to the rising prevalence of several cancer indications and the increasing sales of approved MEK inhibitors.
