Summary

Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is a common, often clinically silent liver disease characterized by the presence of steatosis (fatty liver), in addition to liver inflammation and damage. Unlike alcoholic liver disease, NASH occurs in those who drink little or no alcohol. NASH usually presents with few or no symptoms, and most people affected with the disease feel healthy and are unaware they have a problem. However, symptoms including fatigue, weight loss, and weakness emerge once the disease has progressed to a more advanced stage, like cirrhosis. NASH is suspected if elevated liver enzymes are detected during routine blood panels, but it is only definitively diagnosed when a liver biopsy is performed.

Both NASH and non-alcoholic fatty liver (NAFL) are histologically categorized under the umbrella of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). NAFL is defined as the presence of a fatty liver with no evidence of hepatocellular injury or fibrosis, whereas NASH is defined as the presence of fatty liver and inflammation with evidence of hepatocyte injury, with or without fibrosis. NASH can progress to more advanced stages of liver disease including cirrhosis, liver failure, and in rare cases, liver cancer.

Key Highlights
  • Over the 10-year forecast period, the publisher estimates the sales for the NASH market to grow from $144.4M in 2019 to $27.2B in 2029 at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 68.8% across the 7MM. At the end of 2029, the US will contribute around 94.3% of global sales, while the 5EU and Japan will account for around 4.5% and 1.2% of sales, respectively.
  • The publisher expects the main drivers of growth during the forecast period to be the US launch of Intercept’s Ocaliva in 2021, Inventiva’s lanifibranor in 2025 and Novo Nordisk’s Ozempic in 2026. Ozempic is anticipated to have rapid growth and be the highest grossing therapy by 2029 in NASH.
  • Throughout the forecast period, cost of therapy and slow reimbursement rates will likely hinder uptake of certain therapies. The publisher also expects finding an alternative to liver biopsy will remain a challenge for diagnosis and measuring treatment response, although novel non-invasive tests such as Genfit’s NIS-4 could become validated in hopes of boosting diagnosis rates throughout the period.
