Key Factors Driving the Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease MarketRising Global Burden of Cardiovascular Diseases

The increasing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases worldwide is a major driver of the Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease market. Aging populations, sedentary lifestyles, unhealthy dietary habits, and the growing incidence of obesity and diabetes are contributing to a larger patient population requiring long-term cardiovascular management.

Increasing Prevalence of Dyslipidemia and Metabolic Disorders

The rising incidence of hypercholesterolemia, dyslipidemia, hypertension, type 2 diabetes, and metabolic syndrome has significantly increased the risk of developing ASCVD. The growing burden of these risk factors continues to drive demand for preventive and therapeutic interventions.

Advancements in Lipid-Lowering Therapies

Continuous innovation in lipid-lowering treatments, including PCSK9 inhibitors, siRNA therapies, ATP citrate lyase inhibitors, and other next-generation agents, has expanded therapeutic options for patients who are inadequately controlled with conventional statin therapy. These advancements are supporting sustained market growth.

Expanding Pipeline of Novel Cardiovascular Therapies

A robust clinical pipeline focused on lipid metabolism, inflammation, thrombosis, and other cardiovascular pathways is driving innovation in the ASCVD market. Ongoing research into first-in-class and best-in-class therapies is expected to improve patient outcomes and broaden treatment options.

Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease Competitive Landscape

The Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease treatment landscape is primarily driven by lipid-lowering therapies aimed at reducing LDL-C levels, supported by antiplatelet, anticoagulant, and anti-inflammatory agents for both primary and secondary prevention. Statins remain the cornerstone of therapy, while additional treatments such as ticagrelor, rivaroxaban, and LODOCO (low-dose colchicine) play key roles in reducing thrombotic and inflammatory cardiovascular risks.

Among advanced lipid-lowering options, PCSK9-targeted therapies including Evolocumab, Alirocumab, and Inclisiran have significantly improved LDL-C control in high-risk patients requiring additional lipid reduction beyond statins. Evolocumab currently leads the PCSK9 market, while Inclisiran is gaining traction due to its twice-yearly dosing and potential adherence advantages.

Other lipid-modifying therapies such as Bempedoic acid and Icosapent ethyl further address residual cardiovascular risk. Despite strong clinical efficacy, uptake of advanced lipid-lowering therapies remains limited due to cost and reimbursement barriers. However, increasing payer alignment and the development of next-generation therapies, including oral PCSK9 inhibitors, RNA-based agents targeting lipoprotein(a), and gene-editing approaches, are expected to expand treatment options and reshape the ASCVD therapeutics market in the coming years.

Formerly known as Vicagrel, this Class 1 innovative oral antiplatelet drug is a new-generation P2Y12 receptor antagonist designed to treat and prevent atherosclerotic thrombotic events.

  • In January 2025, Ionis Pharmaceuticals’ partner Novartis announced in its year-end earnings report that Phase III pelacarsen data were expected in the first half of 2026, with regulatory submissions planned for the second half of the year.

  • In January 2025, LIB Therapeutics announced the publication of a Phase III study of lerodalcibep in HoFH in The Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology.

  • In September 2025, Menarini Group announced that the EMA had validated the Marketing Authorization Application (MAA) for obicetrapib and the obicetrapib/ezetimibe fixed-dose combination as an adjunct to diet for patients with primary hypercholesterolaemia or mixed dyslipidaemia who are unable to reach LDL-C goals with the maximum tolerated dose of a statin or who are statin-intolerant or for whom a statin is contraindicated.

What is Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease?

Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease (ASCVD) is a medical condition characterized by the buildup of fatty deposits (plaques) on the inner walls of arteries. These plaques consist of cholesterol, fatty substances, calcium, and other cellular waste products. Over time, the plaques can harden and narrow the arteries, which reduces blood flow to vital organs and tissues.

ASCVD is a progressive and chronic condition that can affect various arteries throughout the body, including those supplying the heart (coronary arteries), brain (cerebral arteries), and legs (peripheral arteries). The most common manifestations of ASCVD include Coronary Artery Disease (CAD), cerebrovascular disease (stroke), and Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD).

Diagnosis is based on a combination of clinical evaluation, laboratory tests, genetic analysis, and imaging techniques. Initial assessment typically includes lipid profile testing measuring total cholesterol, LDL-C, HDL-C, and triglycerides along with additional biomarkers such as apolipoproteins, hsCRP, and lipoprotein (a) in selected patients to refine cardiovascular risk.

Management and prevention primarily focus on lifestyle modification, pharmacotherapy, and interventional procedures. Pharmacologic treatment commonly includes statins as first-line therapy, with additional agents such as ezetimibe, PCSK9 inhibitors, and omega-3 fatty acids when lipid control is inadequate. In patients with established disease or severe coronary artery blockage, revascularization procedures such as percutaneous coronary intervention or coronary artery bypass grafting may be used to restore blood flow and reduce cardiovascular complications.
