Pruritus Drug Pipeline Analysis Report 2025
Description
Pruritus, commonly known as itching, is a condition characterized by an uncomfortable sensation that triggers the urge to scratch. It affects approximately 39.8% of the global population. This condition presents a significant unmet clinical need, as current treatment options, such as antihistamines and corticosteroids, often provide limited relief. With rising cases linked to chronic conditions like eczema, kidney disease, and liver disorders, the demand for more effective therapies is growing. Furthermore, increasing research on novel treatments, such as biologics and JAK inhibitors, alongside advancements in personalized medicine, is expected to drive the pruritus drug pipeline. The focus on developing targeted therapies offers hope for improved outcomes in the future.
Report Coverage
The Pruritus Drug Pipeline Insight Report by Expert Market Research gives comprehensive insights into pruritus therapeutics currently undergoing clinical trials. It covers various aspects related to the details of each of these drugs under development for pruritus. The pruritus report assessment includes the analysis of over 100 pipeline drugs and 50+ companies. The pruritus pipeline landscape will include an analysis based on efficacy and safety measure outcomes published for the trials, including their adverse effects on patients suffering from the condition, and alignment with pruritus treatment guidelines to ensure optimal care practices.
The assessment part will include a detailed analysis of each drug, drug class, clinical studies, phase type, drug type, route of administration, and ongoing product development activities related to pruritus.
Pruritus Drug Pipeline Outlook
Pruritus, or itching, is a common symptom of numerous conditions, including dermatologic, systemic, and neurological disorders. It occurs when sensory nerve fibers in the skin are activated, leading to discomfort and scratching. The pruritus drug pipeline focuses on innovative treatments targeting the underlying causes, such as inflammation or immune dysfunction, to provide better symptom relief and improve quality of life.
Pruritus is commonly treated with antihistamines, corticosteroids, and topical emollients. In cases of chronic or severe pruritus, therapies such as JAK inhibitors, biologics, and phototherapy are gaining attention. These treatments aim to reduce inflammation and modulate immune responses to alleviate itching effectively.
Pruritus Epidemiology
A 2024 article on pruritus epidemiology highlighted a global prevalence of 39.8%, with the highest rates observed in individuals aged 65 and older. Women were more affected than men, showing a prevalence of 40.7% compared to 38.9%. Regional variations included the highest prevalence in Africa at 45.7%, followed by East Asia at 40.2% and Latin America at 36.5%. Europe recorded the lowest prevalence at 35.9%, while North America had a prevalence of 41.2%. BRICS countries exhibited a higher prevalence of 40.3%, compared to 38.7% in developed nations.

It includes product description, trial ID, study type, drug class, mode of administration, and recruitment status of pruritus drug candidates.
Drug: Maralixibat
The Phase 3 study sponsored by Mirum Pharmaceuticals, Inc. aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of maralixibat in pediatric and adult participants with cholestatic liver disease and refractory pruritus. The study, expected to be completed by February 2027, will enroll 90 participants across multiple global sites, including North America, Europe, the Middle East, and South America.
Drug: Nalmefene
Tharimmune Inc. is sponsoring a Phase 2a study on the efficacy of TH104 in treating moderate to severe pruritus in primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) patients. The study will include 40 participants and is designed to evaluate TH104's effectiveness in managing pruritus. The study is expected to be completed by April 2026.
Drug: Ondansetron 8mg
The clinical trial sponsored by Wayne State University aims to examine the efficacy of ondansetron in preventing pruritus in patients undergoing cesarean sections under spinal anesthesia with morphine. The Phase 1 study will assess different timings of ondansetron administration to reduce pruritus and postoperative nausea or vomiting. The study is expected to be completed by December 2025, with 66 participants.
