- Press Release -

Therapeutic peptides are used to treat various types of cardiovascular diseases. Initially, the development of peptides as therapeutic agents was avoided by the pharmaceutical industry due to their low stability, rate of degradation and poor delivery. However, in the present times, with increasing amounts of economic resources being diverted to healthcare R&D, new avenues have opened up for peptide therapeutics. Increasing healthcare expenditure and increasing FDI in emerging economies along with the emergence of prominent pharmaceutical and biotech companies is fuelling market growth in peptide therapeutics. Besides, growing number of people suffering from cardiovascular diseases is also fuelling the market for peptide therapeutics. Breakthroughs in the development of therapeutic peptides for treating cardiovascular diseases and the development of new peptides is also fuelling the market growth. However, various factors such as increasing cost of developing peptides, rapid metabolism of peptide drugs and a stringent regulatory framework may restrain the growth of therapeutic peptides.

The global peptide based cardiovascular therapeutics market is slated to touch a value of nearly US$ 1,960 Mn in the year 2022 and grow at a robust CAGR during the assessment period.
