The global nonalcoholic
steatohepatitis therapeutics market is expected to
witness significant growth due to current unmet medical need of NASH, scarcity
of the permanent treatment of the disease, increasing prevalence of obesity, and
high demand for safe and effective medication. The regulatory bodies are
supporting the NASH market by providing designations and funding for speeding
up the drug development process. In
March 2015, obeticholic acid, an investigational Phase III clinical trial drug
candidate of Intercept Pharmaceuticals Inc., received breakthrough therapy
designation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of
patients with NASH.

The pipeline of NASH
therapeutics is rich with more than 50 drugs. The pharmaceutical companies are actively
involved in the research and development of drug for NASH. In June 2016, The
Zydus Cadila initiated Phase III clinical trials of Saroglitazar to study its
effect in adult NASH patients.
NASH
is a type of liver disease, which is characterized by liver inflammation and fat
accumulation, in the absence of significant alcohol consumption. It is the more
severe form of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. In NASH, fat accumulation,
hepatic inflammation and hepatic triglyceride accumulation may ultimately lead
to liver cirrhosis. North America is an emerging epidemic of obesity due to NASH.
According to the NIH, NASH affects 2% to 5% of Americans and it is one of the
major causes of cirrhosis.
