Argatroban is a thrombin inhibitor that prevents the clotting of blood. Its chemical name is 1-[5-[(aminoiminomethyl) amino]-1-oxo-2-[[(1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-3-methyl-8-quinolinyl) sulfonyl] amino]pentyl]-4-methyl-2-piperidinecarboxylic acid, monohydrate. It is used to treat conditions such as heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT). Heparin is a more commonly used thrombin inhibitor, but it results in deficiency of blood platelet count in some cases. This has fueled the need for a heparin alternative. Argatroban caters to this need by acting as a thrombin inhibitor without leading to any heparin-like complications.
The global argatroban market is segmented based on product, application, and geography. On the basis of product, the market is bifurcated into argatroban powder and argatroban injection. Applications covered in this study include heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (hit), percutaneous coronary intervention, cerebral arterial thrombosis, and others. Geographically, the market is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.
The growth of the global argatroban market is driven by increase in the number of heparin-related complications among patients and rise in incidence of percutaneous coronary intervention procedures & cerebral arterial thrombosis. However, increase in allergies associated with argatroban is expected to hinder the market growth.
