Heart failure presents a major public health burden in China. With a rapidly rising urban population and a growing trend of unhealthy lifestyle, heart failure is expected to affect a sizeable population of the country. The treatment of acute heart failure (AHF) is dominated by older, cost-effective generic drugs; however, we expect the growing uptake of recently approved SGLT-2 inhibitors—canagliflozin (Janssen’s Invokana), dapagliflozin (AstraZeneca’s Farxiga), and empagliflozin (Eli Lilly’s Jardiance)—will lead the heart failure market to grow significantly during the forecast period. Nonetheless, a significant unmet need will continue to exist for patients with chronic heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HF-pEF)—where treatment options are limited—representing an opportunity for drug developers in this space. In addition, the ongoing reforms in the regulatory and A&R landscape of China are expected to encourage MNCs to enter the heart failure market.
