Chronic refractory cough is a persistent cough lasting over eight weeks despite treatment, significantly impacting patients' quality of life. It accounts for approximately 2%-18% of chronic cough cases worldwide. With a growing demand for advanced therapies, pharmaceutical companies are increasingly focusing on chronic refractory cough drug candidates. Recent advancements include neuromodulators, P2X3 purinoceptor antagonists, and novel anti-inflammatory agents. The pipeline for these treatments is expected to expand as clinical trials advance, regulatory approvals increase, and awareness of the condition improves.

Report Coverage

The chronic refractory cough pipeline landscape will include an analysis based on efficacy and safety measure outcomes published for the trials, including their adverse effects on patients suffering from the condition, and alignment with chronic refractory cough treatment guidelines to ensure optimal care practices.

The assessment part will include a detailed analysis of each drug, drug class, clinical studies, phase type, drug type, route of administration, and ongoing product development activities related to chronic refractory cough.

Chronic Refractory Cough Drug Pipeline Outlook

Chronic refractory cough is a persistent cough lasting over eight weeks that does not respond to standard treatments. It often results from heightened nerve sensitivity in the airways, triggered by infections, allergies, or acid reflux. It can significantly impact daily life, causing discomfort, sleep disturbances, and social embarrassment.

Chronic refractory cough treatments focus on symptom relief. Options include neuromodulators like gabapentin, speech therapy, and cough suppression techniques. Emerging therapies, such as P2X3 receptor antagonists, target nerve hypersensitivity. Lifestyle modifications, including hydration and avoiding irritants, can help manage symptoms effectively.

Chronic Refractory Cough Epidemiology

The global prevalence of chronic cough is estimated to be between 2% and 18%. A cough lasting more than eight weeks is classified as chronic and affects approximately 10% of adults in the United States. Web-based National Health and Wellness Surveys report a 12-month prevalence of around 5% in Japan, Germany, the United States, and Spain. In Spain, the estimated lifetime prevalence is 8.2%, impacting 3.3 million adults.

Chronic Refractory Cough Emerging Drugs Profile

This section covers the detailed analysis of each drug under multiple phases, including phase I, phase II, phase III, phase IV, and emerging drugs for chronic refractory cough. It includes product description, trial ID, study type, drug class, mode of administration, and recruitment status of chronic refractory cough drug candidates.

Drug: BLU-5937

BLU-5937, currently being investigated in a Phase III study sponsored by Bellus Health Inc. (a GSK company), targets refractory chronic cough. It works by inhibiting P2X3 receptors on sensory neurons to reduce cough reflex hypersensitivity. The study aims to assess its efficacy in reducing 24-hour cough frequency.

Drug: Nalbuphine ER

Nalbuphine ER (NAL ER), developed by Trevi Therapeutics, is being evaluated for the treatment of refractory chronic cough (RCC). It modulates the cough reflex arc through its dual mechanism as a kappa agonist and mu antagonist (KAMA). The objective of this Phase II study is to assess its efficacy and safety in RCC patients.

Drug: NOC-110

NOC-110 is undergoing Phase II clinical development for refractory or unexplained chronic cough. The clinical trial, conducted by Nocion Therapeutics, aims to evaluate its efficacy, safety, and tolerability. NOC-110, an inhalation powder, works by silencing activated nociceptors through sodium channel blockade, potentially offering superior antitussive effects compared to P2X3 antagonists.
