Acute Coronary Syndrome – Current Treatment – Treatment Algorithms: Claims Data Analysis – Acute Coronary Syndrome: Secondary Prevention (US)
Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is an umbrella term encompassing myocardial infarction and unstable angina. This report focuses on the secondary prevention of ACS (post-ACS), aimed at preventing recurrent CV events, adverse cardiac remodeling, and prolonging survival. The current post-ACS drug market is dominated by generic therapies such as aspirin, statins, RAAS inhibitors, and beta blockers. Key brands include PCSK9 inhibitors (evolocumab, alirocumab, inclisiran), ACL inhibitors (bempedoic acid), P2Y12 inhibitors (ticagrelor), anti-inflammatory agents (low-dose colchicine), and prescription omega-3 fatty acids (icosapent ethyl). In this report, we use patient-level claims data to analyze prescribing dynamics in the U.S. post-ACS drug market and provide insights into the factors shaping treatment patterns among newly diagnosed and recently treated patients.
Questions answered
- What patient shares do key therapies and brands garner by line of therapy in newly diagnosed post-ACS patients? What are the quarterly trends in prescribing among recently treated and newly diagnosed post-ACS patients?
- How have PCKS9 inhibitors and bempedoic acid been integrated into the treatment algorithm, and what is their source of business?
- What percentage of post-ACS patients receive drug therapy within one year of diagnosis, and how quickly?
- What percentage of patients progress to later lines of therapy within one year of diagnosis?
- What percentage of post-ACS patients are treated with monotherapy vs. combination therapy? What are the most commonly used combinations?
- What are the product-level compliance and persistency rates among drug-treated patients?
