The cardiovascular clinical trials market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The cardiovascular clinical trials market has seen strong growth in recent years. It will grow from $5.34 billion in 2024 to $5.73 billion in 2025, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.4%.
Growth factors include an increase in myocardial infarction cases, regulatory developments, the rising disease burden, advancements in genomics, and the growing demand for new drug development.
The cardiovascular clinical trials market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• The cardiovascular clinical trials market is expected to grow to $7.53 billion by 2029, with a CAGR of 7.0%.
The growth is driven by an aging population, emerging markets, precision medicine, digital health technologies, and patient-centric trials. Trends include increased collaborations, technological innovations, product developments, and the launch of generic versions of combination drugs.
The growing incidence of cardiovascular diseases is expected to drive the growth of the cardiovascular clinical trials market. Cardiovascular diseases are increasing due to factors such as sedentary lifestyles and poor diet, and clinical trials are essential in developing effective treatments. The Minnesota Department of Health reported in September 2024 that high blood pressure is prevalent in nearly one-third of adults in the state, and cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death. Therefore, the increase in cardiovascular diseases is fueling the demand for cardiovascular clinical trials.
