The market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.24% during the forecast period of 2024-2032, with the values likely to rise from USD 2.57 billion in 2024 to USD 3.87 billion by 2032.

Pericarditis Market Overview

Pericarditis is characterized by the inflammation of the pericardium (sac surrounding the heart) caused by various disorders such as myocardial infarction, infection, metabolic disorders, and tumors. Pericarditis is the most common pericardial disease, leading to 5.4-26 hospitalizations per 100,000 individuals annually in the United States. Recurrent pericarditis occurs in 30% of patients having acute pericarditis, with treatment lasting up to 7 years.  The rising prevalence of the disease is expected to augment the market size in the forecast period.

The surge in approvals from health regulatory agencies also drives the pericarditis market growth. In February 2024 , the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted Orphan Drug Designation (ODD) to a small molecule drug candidate called CardiolRx™ to treat pericarditis. Developed by Cardiol Therapeutics Inc., a clinical-stage life sciences company in the United States, the drug candidate is undergoing Phase II clinical trials for recurrent pericarditis and acute myocarditis.

The emergence of novel therapies to treat the condition and address a wider section of patients is expected to fuel the market demand in coming years. Increased research and development initiatives along with investments made by the key players is projected to boost the market size. Heightened awareness of heart health among patients through campaigns and trends is another significant factor contributing to the increasing market size.
