The VTE primary prophylaxis space is specifically projected to grow from $2.4bn in 2015 to $3.5bn by 2025, at a CAGR of 4.01%.

Novel oral anticoagulants (NOACs) will be the key driving force behind the anticipated growth in the VTE market.

“Novel oral anticoagulants (NOACs) will be the key driving force behind the anticipated growth in the VTE market.”

NOACs require fewer dose adjustments and avoid routine blood monitoring, proving their safety and efficacy over warfarin, an established anticoagulant in the market. They also have fewer drug-drug interactions and lesser dietary effects compared to warfarin.

NOACs such as Pradaxa, Xarelto, Eliquis and Savaysa provide physicians with a number of treatment options, which can be administered depending upon a patient’s risk profile.

Despite the advantages provided by NOACs, a transformational therapy is required to drive growth in the VTE market, according to GlobalData analyst Michela McMullan, Ph.D.

According to McMullan, a drug which can be administered orally, once-daily, and having better renal clearance can drive growth and fetch a premium price in the market. She commented that it should not require routine monitoring and be safe enough to be administered to patients in all stages of renal impairment.
