It usually occurs between the ages of 45 and 55, with an average age of around 51. This phase is characterized by a decline in the production of hormones like estrogen and progesterone, leading to the cessation of menstruation and fertility. The primary cause of menopause is the aging of the ovaries, which results in a reduced number of eggs and a decline in hormone production. However, certain medical procedures like hysterectomy, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy can induce menopause prematurely. Menopause brings about a range of symptoms that can vary widely from woman to woman. Common menopause symptoms include hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, irritability, fatigue, vaginal dryness, and sleep disturbances. These symptoms occur due to the hormonal fluctuations that take place during the transition to menopause. Diagnosing menopause is often based on a woman's age, medical history, and symptoms. A key factor is the absence of menstruation for 12 consecutive months, signaling the end of the reproductive period. In some cases, healthcare providers may recommend blood tests to measure hormone levels, such as follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and estrogen, to confirm the onset of menopause. Menopause Epidemiology Segmentation DelveInsight estimates that there were approximately 100 million total women in menopause in the 7MM in 2022. For the age-specific analysis, the number of cases of menopause were distributed across various age groups, such as <40 years, 40–50 years, 51–60 years, and 61–65 years, in the 7MM. As per the analysis, the highest number of cases were estimated in the age-group 51-60 years and the lowest in <40 years with 64 million and 3.4 million cases, respectively in 2022. The menopause market report proffers epidemiological analysis for the study period 2019–2032 in the 7MM segmented into: Total Number of Women in Menopause Stage-Specific Distribution of Women in Menopause Age-Specific Distribution of Women in Menopause Number of Women in Menopause with Vasomotor Symptoms Number of Women in Menopause with Moderate-to-Severe Vasomotor Symptoms Menopause Treatment Market The North American Menopause Society (NAMS) suggests waiting until the hot flashes become troublesome to the woman before seeking treatment. The intensity of symptoms, an assessment of treatment-related risks, and the woman's views towards menopause and drugs should all be considered before starting treatment. Duavee (bazedoxifene acetate/conjugated estrogens) is the first and only medicine that combines CE with an estrogen agonist/antagonist, commonly known as a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM), for the treatment of menopausal VMS. Duavee employs bazedoxifene rather than progestin to help protect the uterine lining from hyperplasia that may occur as a result of estrogen-only treatment. Many women use non-prescription therapies to address disorders such as hot flashes, such as isoflavones, black cohosh, and progesterone-containing hormone lotions. The clinical evidence for the efficacy and long-term safety of these therapies is insufficient. Furthermore, most over-the-counter medications for hot flashes are classified as nutritional supplements and, as such, are not regulated by the US Food and Drug Administration. Prescription medications for various purposes that have demonstrated some benefit in alleviating hot flashes are available for women who have hot flashes but cannot undergo hormone therapy. Certain prescription antidepressants may reduce hot flashes in women, including those with a history of breast cancer. Others include gabapentin, clonidine, and methyldopa. The NAMS recommends that women who need relief from mild menopause-related hot flashes first consider lifestyle changes such as manipulating the environment to keep the core body temperature cool, getting regular exercise, quitting smoking, and using relaxation techniques such as paced respiration.

With an aging population and increasing focus on women's empowerment, there's a heightened demand for innovative products and services addressing the physical and emotional challenges associated with menopause. This has spurred a surge in research and development, leading to the creation of a diverse range of hormone replacement therapies, herbal supplements, lifestyle apps, and personalized health plans. As more women seek effective and holistic solutions, companies are embracing a more consumer-centric approach, tailoring their offerings to individual needs and preferences. Additionally, discussions around menopause are becoming less taboo, allowing for open dialogue and information-sharing, further shaping the menopause market dynamics by fostering a supportive ecosystem for women navigating this life stage. However, despite the potential for growth, this menopause market is not without its barriers. Stringent regulatory processes for hormonal treatments and supplements, coupled with concerns about product safety and efficacy, pose challenges for menopause market entrants. Additionally, cultural stigmas and misinformation surrounding menopause still exist in certain societies, inhibiting open discussions and the adoption of new solutions. Economic disparities and limited access to healthcare further compound these issues, preventing equal menopause market penetration. Overcoming these barriers requires a multi-faceted approach, involving education, regulatory reforms, and inclusive product development, to truly tap into the menopause market's potential.

BERKELEY, Calif., April 24, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Valitor, a biotechnology company engineering better medicines to conquer drug limitations, today announced new data from VLTR-557, its long-acting anti-VEGF biologic in development for durable wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) treatment. These data are being presented at the 2023 Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology (ARVO) Annual Meeting taking place April 23-27, 2023 in New Orleans, LA. The preclinical results demonstrated highly-localized and sustained drug exposure to ocular tissues and also confirmed the anti-VEGF bioactivity of VLTR-557. In addition, VLTR-557 exhibited high binding affinity to VEGF-A and remained stable under physiologic conditions for six months. Importantly, the initial formulations were well-tolerated. These data suggest that a single intravitreal (ITV) injection of VLTR-557 has potential to maintain clinical efficacy for more than six months. “These are exciting data, which demonstrate a highly differentiated profile compared to available AMD treatments. Specifically, results show that a single administration of VLTR-557, our long-acting anti-VEGF biologic for AMD, has the potential to maintain clinical efficacy with a standardized administration protocol of once every six months, which is longer than the current anti-VEGF biologics that require patient-specific dosing intervals,” said Wesley Jackson, Ph.D., chief scientific officer of Valitor. “Current available AMD treatments are limited by the need for more frequent injections and inconsistent patient-to-patient dosing protocols, which often leads to poor compliance and lower long-term efficacy. Our multivalent polymer technology, as demonstrated with VLTR-557, is designed to overcome these challenges by enabling long-acting results with reliable intravitreal durability and providing better treatment options for patients with AMD.” Highlights from the VLTR-557 Poster Presentation Pharmacokinetics Overview The half-life of VLTR-557 in the vitreous humor was 15.6 days, and its half-life in the other ocular tissues was approximately the sameThe retina/choroid tissues had the second highest concentration of VLTR-557, which was approximately one third of the concentration in the vitreous humorThe serum concentration of VLTR-557 was approximately 10,000X lower than the vitreous humor concentrationChanges in VLTR-557 concentration in systemic tissues were similar to those in the serum-level concentrations Pharmacodynamics Overview VLTR-557 exhibited sub-picomolar affinity to VEGF-A, resulting in rapid attenuation of VEGF signaling in vitroVLTR-557 remained stable and maintained high binding affinity to VEGF for 6 months under physiological conditions Safety Overview The pilot formulations of VLTR-557 appeared to be tolerated in a repeat-dose preclinical model Poster Presentation Details Title:VLTR-557: A long-acting anti-VEGF biologic in development for durable wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD)Session Title:AMD antiVEGFSession Date & Time:Monday, April 24, 2023; 3:15 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. CTPoster Number:2219 - C0172 About the MVP TechnologyValitor’s Multivalent Polymer (MVP) technology platform originated at U.C.
