Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD): Opportunity Analysis and Forecasts to 2028

Summary

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a psychiatric disorder that can occur in people who have experienced or witnessed a traumatic event such as a natural disaster, a serious accident, a terrorist act, war/combat, rape, or other violent personal assault. Symptoms include “re-experiencing” distressing memories, hypervigilance, avoidant behaviors, sweating, tremors, and dissociation. There are numerous PTSD classification systems. In this report, patient populations are divided into subtypes by symptom onset. Symptoms must persist for more than one month to be classified as PTSD. Acute PTSD is defined as symptom onset occurring sooner or equal to three months after the traumatic occurrence. Chronic PTSD is when symptoms occur more than three months but less than six months after the event. Delayed-onset PTSD is defined as when symptoms commence six months or later. The most prevalent form is chronic PTSD and two pipeline products are being specifically developed to treat this form of the disorder.

There are only two approved therapies, SSRIs Zoloft (sertraline hydrochloride) and Paxil (paroxetine hydrochloride), the latter of which has anticholinergic activity and is associated with severe adverse effects. Additionally, these medications have been seen to be inadequate in treating PTSD effectively, and also have black box warnings for increased impulsiveness and suicidal behaviors. The most recent approval, which was for Paxil occurred in 2001. The PTSD marketplace is extremely barren and physicians regularly prescribe off-label therapies with indeterminable safety profiles or efficacy studies. This trial-and-error approach can have consequences such as worsening of symptoms as has been experienced with benzodiazepines, which are still commonly prescribed by psychiatrists worldwide. Treatment regimens need to be tailored to the type of symptoms experienced by patients to boost the likelihood of symptom amelioration.

GlobalData estimates that drug sales for PTSD in 2018 were approximately $211.4M across the seven major markets covered in this report. Over the 10-year forecast period, the market is expected to grow to $1.2B at a CAGR of 18.7%. This growth will be driven by the launch of five late-stage pipeline products. The two highest selling drugs are expected to be Otsuka’s brexpiprazole and MAPS’ midomafetamine, which address the clinical unmet needs in the market.
