Acute Coronary Syndrome Overview
Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) is a group of conditions caused by a sudden reduction or blockage of blood flow to the heart, and it comprises acute myocardial infarction and Unstable Angina together. It includes unstable angina, Non-ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (NSTEMI), and ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI), representing varying degrees of severity. ACS is primarily triggered by plaque rupture and clot formation in the coronary arteries and commonly presents with chest pain or discomfort, though symptoms can differ across patients. Risk factors include hypertension, diabetes, smoking, obesity, and a sedentary lifestyle. The condition is more common in older adults and men, though the incidence in women is rising. Diagnosis is based on a combination of clinical evaluation, electrocardiogram (ECG), and cardiac biomarkers, particularly troponins, with serial testing often required to confirm a diagnosis. Additional tools such as echocardiography or coronary angiography may be used to assess heart function and identify the site of blockage.

Acute Coronary Syndrome Epidemiology Key Findings
-
The total incident cases of ACS in the 7MM were approximately 2.2 million in 2025, with the highest incidence in the United States.
-
In 2025, AMI accounted for a higher proportion of ACS cases (~835,000 in the United States) compared to Unstable Angina.
-
Approximately three-quarters of AMI cases were NSTEMI (~75%), while STEMI accounted for about one-quarter, indicating a clear predominance of NSTEMI presentations.
-
ACS cases were predominantly observed in males (~75%), while females accounted for a smaller proportion.
-
Secondary findings suggest that unstable angina accounts for roughly 10-30% of overall ACS cases.
Approved Therapies for Acute Coronary Syndrome
-
Colchicine (LODOCO): AGEPHA Pharma
In June 2023, the US FDA approved LODOCO as the first targeted anti-inflammatory therapy for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. It demonstrated a ~31% reduction in cardiovascular events versus placebo and became available for prescription in the second half of 2023.
-
Evolocumab (REPATHA): Amgen
A human monoclonal antibody that inhibits proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9), marketed in the US since 2017.
-
Alirocumab (PRALUENT): Regeneron and Sanofi
A PCSK9-inhibiting monoclonal antibody marketed in the US since 2019 and in the EU since 2025.
Acute Coronary Syndrome Pipeline Analysis
-
Selatogrel (ACT-246475): Idorsia Pharmaceuticals and Viatris
A potent, fast-acting, reversible, and highly selective P2Y12 inhibitor being developed for AMI in patients with a history of AMI. It is intended to be self-administered subcutaneously via an autoinjector, with the potential to protect the heart muscle in the crucial time between symptom onset and first medical attention. The anticipated US launch is 2028.
-
FDY-5301: Faraday Pharmaceuticals
A patented elemental reducing agent containing sodium iodide that catalytically destroys hydrogen peroxide generated in response to acute injury. A Phase II trial in reperfusion injury following STEMI showed the treatment was well-tolerated, with encouraging signals of potential efficacy in minimizing cardiac damage.
-
Ziltivekimab: Novo Nordisk
A Phase III IL-6 inhibitor monoclonal antibody for AMI, administered subcutaneously.

Acute Coronary Syndrome Market Outlook
The treatment of ACS is a medical emergency focused on relieving symptoms, interrupting thrombosis, restoring myocardial perfusion, limiting infarct size, and preventing complications through rapid diagnosis and intervention. Management typically involves a combination of revascularization procedures (PCI, CABG, or fibrinolysis) and pharmacologic therapy. Core drug classes include antiplatelets, anticoagulants, beta-blockers, nitrates, statins, ACE inhibitors/ARBs, and calcium channel blockers. The ACS market is evolving as treatment focus shifts from traditional broad antithrombotic approaches to more targeted and mechanism-driven therapies, with agents like LODOCO highlighting the growing role of inflammation modulation alongside optimized P2Y12 inhibitors such as Ticagrelor. Increasing emphasis on personalized therapy and novel pathways (e.g., factor XI and platelet signaling) is creating opportunities for safer and more effective treatment, which positions the coronary artery disease therapeutic market for sustained expansion. The launch of first-in-class therapies, improved diagnostic approaches, and increasing disease awareness are expected to drive steady growth in the 7MM ACS market from 2022-2036. The United States leads in revenue, while Europe and Japan demonstrate steady growth, supported by increasing cardiovascular disease burden, improved diagnosis rates, and gradual adoption of novel adjunctive therapies.
Key Factors Driving the Acute Coronary Syndrome Market
-
Rising ACS incidence driven by aging populations and rising lifestyle-related risk factors
-
Opportunities in inflammation targeting and optimized antithrombotic strategies, with improved outcomes and controlled bleeding risk
-
Growing innovation with agents such as Colchicine and advanced P2Y12 inhibitors such as Ticagrelor
-
A robust pipeline of therapies including Selatogrel, FDY-5301, and Ziltivekimab
-
Higher mortality and morbidity associated with AMI, creating demand for novel therapies in immediate intervention, long-term cardiovascular protection, and post-AMI care
Acute Coronary Syndrome Unmet Needs
-
Delayed or missed diagnosis, especially in atypical presentations
-
Need for better risk stratification and personalized treatment
-
Poor control of modifiable risk factors (e.g., diabetes, hypertension)
-
High risk of recurrence despite existing therapies
-
Limited awareness and delays in accessing timely care
-
Suboptimal long-term treatment adherence
Acute Coronary Syndrome Treatment Landscape
Treatment of ACS focuses on restoring blood flow, relieving symptoms, and preventing complications. Initial management includes antiplatelet agents, anticoagulants, nitrates, beta-blockers, and statins. Reperfusion therapy is critical, especially in severe cases, and may involve percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or thrombolytic therapy to reopen blocked arteries. Long-term management includes lifestyle modification, cardiac rehabilitation, and continued pharmacotherapy to reduce the risk of recurrence and improve survival. Most pharmaceutical efforts have been centered on AMI or the broader ACS category rather than unstable angina, which has shaped the myocardial infarction drugs market and the wider ACS Mart landscape.
