Obstructive Sleep Apnea Market

 Market Overview:

The 7 major obstructive sleep apnea markets reached a value of US$ 424.2 Million in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the 7MM to reach US$ 639.4 Million by 2034, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 3.8% during 2024-2034.

The obstructive sleep apnea market has been comprehensively analyzed in IMARC's new report titled "Obstructive Sleep Apnea Market: Epidemiology, Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity, and Forecast 2024-2034". Obstructive sleep apnea refers to a sleep disorder characterized by repetitive interruptions in breathing during sleep. These interruptions, known as apneas, occur when the muscles in the throat fail to keep the airway open, resulting in partial or complete blockage of airflow. The obstruction can lead to a decrease in oxygen levels in the body, causing the patient to briefly wake up or experience shallow sleep in order to restore normal breathing. The most common symptoms associated with the ailment include loud snoring, excessive daytime sleepiness, gasping or choking during sleep, morning headaches, difficulty concentrating, irritability, restless sleep, etc. The diagnosis of the condition typically involves a thorough evaluation by a healthcare professional specializing in sleep disorders. It begins with a detailed assessment of the patient's medical history, symptoms, and risk factors. The healthcare provider may use questionnaires, such as the Epworth Sleepiness Scale, to assess daytime sleepiness. In many cases, a sleep study, either in a sleep laboratory or through a home-based sleep test, is conducted to confirm the diagnosis.

The rising cases of chronic nasal congestion due to allergies, sinus problems, nasal polyps, etc., which lead to partial or complete blockage of airflow, are primarily driving the obstructive sleep apnea market. Furthermore, the increasing prevalence of several associated risk factors, such as enlarged tonsils or adenoids, obesity, genetic predisposition, use of sedatives, smoking, etc., is also propelling the market growth. Besides this, the widespread adoption of uvulopalatopharyngoplasty for treating the ailment on account of its numerous benefits, including reduced apnea-hypopnea index, improved airflow, decreased cardiovascular risk, etc., is acting as another significant growth-inducing factor. Additionally, the inflating usage of mandibular advancement devices that are custom-made to fit the patient's mouth and work by repositioning the jaw to help keep the airway open during sleep is further bolstering the market growth. Apart from this, the escalating demand for hypoglossal nerve stimulation (HNS), which involves implanting a device to stimulate the hypoglossal nerve that controls tongue movement and other muscles involved in maintaining airway patency for improved breathing during sleep, is expected to drive the obstructive sleep apnea market in the coming years.

Recent Developments:

• In May 2024, Incannex Healthcare Inc. announced that patient dosing had commenced in the Company’s Phase 2/3 clinical trial to assess the safety and efficacy of IHL-42X in patients with obstructive sleep apnea.
• In March 2024, Desitin announced favorable study results from the FLOW study, which included 298 patients. Nocturnal breathing pauses in individuals with obstructive sleep apnea were dramatically decreased, satisfying the study's primary aim. These good results provide an adequate basis for the final clinical phase 3 development of the first oral therapy for obstructive sleep apnea.
• In September 2023, Apnimed, Inc. announced the first patient dosage in its LunAIRo Phase 3 research, which will compare the efficacy and safety of AD109 (aroxybutynin/atomoxetine) versus placebo over six months and one year. AD109 has the potential to be the first nocturnal oral pharmacologic treatment for persons with obstructive sleep apnea who are unable or unwilling to utilize positive airway pressure therapy.
• In September 2023, Mount Sinai researchers created a novel, automated approach for assessing sleep tests to determine the severity and risk of mortality in individuals with obstructive sleep apnea.

Key Highlights:

• Obstructive sleep apnea is widespread among middle-aged and elderly people.
• Obstructive sleep apnea affects around one out of every fifty children.
• It is also more prevalent in men than women.
• The estimated frequency in North America is roughly 15-30% in males and 10-15% in females.
• Obstructive sleep apnea is expected to impact 1-3% of non-obese, otherwise healthy children under the age of eight.

Drugs:

AD109 is a first-in-class, innovative, experimental combination that is administered once daily at bedtime and is intended to treat obstructive sleep apnea patients with a wide range of disease severity. AD109 combines Apnimed's innovative selective antimuscarinic (aroxybutynin) and atomoxetine, a selective norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor. AD109 affects important neurological pathways in obstructive sleep apnea, activating upper airway dilator muscles to maintain an open airway during sleep.

TAK-925 is a drug developed by Takeda Pharmaceuticals to treat obstructive sleep apnea in adults who experience excessive daytime sleepiness despite using a CPAP machine. This drug is a selective orexin type-2 receptor (OX2R) agonist.

IHL-42X is a unique cannabis combination medication used to treat obstructive sleep apnea. The medicine is a unique synergistic composition drug that contains low-dose dronabinol (2.5mg), a synthetic version of Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), and acetazolamide (125mg), a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor.
