발기부전 : 시장 인사이트, 역학, 예측(2034년)

Key Highlights:

• Erectile dysfunction is a common and complex condition that primarily affects men, with its occurrence increasing worldwide. It is defined by a persistent or recurring difficulty in achieving and sustaining an erection adequate for satisfying sexual activity.
• Erectile dysfunction has a multifactorial origin, involving organic, psychological, and combined causes, and is frequently associated with conditions like diabetes, cardiovascular issues, and neurological disorders. Its psychological and emotional effects can be significant, affecting both the individual and their partner.
• The erectile dysfunction market is projected to grow steadily from 2025 to 2034, driven by increasing global prevalence, heightened awareness, and wider acceptance of pharmacologic therapies. Continued innovation in oral PDE5 inhibitors, the emergence of regenerative approaches, and a robust clinical development pipeline are expected to support sustained market expansion and improved patient outcomes.
• Oral PDE5 inhibitors-sildenafil, tadalafil, vardenafil, and avanafil-along with alprostadil, form the core of FDA-approved pharmacologic therapies for erectile dysfunction. By enhancing penile blood flow, they provide effective, non-invasive treatment options with varying onset and duration profiles. Their introduction revolutionized ED management, improving quality of life and reducing reliance on surgical or device-based interventions.
• Palatin Technologies' development of a combination therapy involving bremelanotide and PDE5 inhibitors signals a novel dual-mechanism approach to treating erectile dysfunction, particularly in patients unresponsive to monotherapy. By targeting both central arousal pathways through melanocortin receptor activation and enhancing peripheral vasodilation via PDE5 inhibition, this strategy exemplifies the growing trend toward personalized, multimodal interventions in sexual health aimed at improving efficacy and patient satisfaction.
• Erectile dysfunction market growth is fueled by advanced pharmacologic therapies and innovative formulations that enhance efficacy, speed of onset, and adherence. While oral PDE5 inhibitors remain the standard of care, their limitations such as inconsistent response and contraindications highlight the need for more personalized options. Emerging treatments, including novel delivery systems and regenerative approaches, aim to improve sexual function, satisfaction, and long-term outcomes.

Erectile Dysfunction Overview

Erectile dysfunction, previously known as impotence, refers to the consistent inability to achieve or maintain a firm penile erection sufficient for satisfactory sexual intercourse. Although some definitions suggest the condition must persist for at least six months, it commonly affects men over the age of 40 and becomes more prevalent with aging and comorbidities such as diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular disease. It may result from impaired blood flow, nerve damage, hormonal imbalances, or structural problems in penile tissue, with endothelial dysfunction often playing a central role.

While most cases of erectile dysfunction stem from physical causes, psychological factors may contribute, especially in younger individuals. Regardless of the underlying cause, the condition frequently leads to emotional distress, reduced self-esteem, strained relationships, and overall decreased quality of life for both the individual and their partner. As such, erectile dysfunction has significant medical and psychosocial implications.

Erectile Dysfunction Diagnosis and Treatment Algorithm

Identifying psychogenic causes of erectile dysfunction, especially in younger men, is crucial and can often be distinguished by sudden onset, situational dysfunction, normal morning or solo erections, or recent life changes. While most cases are organic, psychological support is often beneficial regardless of the cause, helping address anxiety, relationship stress, and treatment adherence. Mental health referrals should be normalized as part of routine care, much like any other diagnostic evaluation.

Initial evaluation does not require extensive testing; basic labs like complete blood count (CBC), metabolic panel, lipid profile, and morning testosterone may be done. Additional tests-such as penile biothesiometry, nocturnal tumescence testing, and penile Doppler ultrasound-are optional and used in selected cases to differentiate between vascular or neurological causes or to evaluate trauma-related dysfunction.

Erectile dysfunction is initially managed through lifestyle changes-such as exercise, a healthy diet, and addressing underlying conditions like diabetes or hypertension-along with psychological support when needed. First-line treatment typically involves oral phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors (e.g., sildenafil, tadalafil), which are effective in many men but require sexual stimulation.

For those who do not respond, options include alprostadil (administered intraurethrally or via injection), testosterone therapy in hypogonadal men, topical agents like Eroxon, and vacuum erection devices. Surgical implants offer a long-term solution for refractory cases. Experimental therapies like shockwave therapy, stem cells, and platelet-rich plasma remain under investigation.

Erectile Dysfunction Drug Chapters

Emerging Erectile Dysfunction Drugs

The Erectile Dysfunction market is expected to evolve gradually, driven by the limited number of emerging therapies currently in development. Key players such as Bremelanotide + PDE5i, by Palatin Technologies, among others are showing active commitment to addressing this unmet need, with ongoing efforts to advance novel treatment options for this complex condition.

Bremelanotide + PDE5i: Palatin Technologies

Palatin has created a new single-injection co-formulation combining bremelanotide with a PDE5 inhibitor for the treatment of erectile dysfunction. The company plans to submit an Investigational New Drug (IND) application to the FDA later this year, with a potential Phase III trial targeting patients who do not respond to PDE5 inhibitor monotherapy.

In June 2024, Palatin Technologies announced the initiation of a Phase II clinical study of bremelanotide (BMT), a melanocortin 4 receptor (MC4R), co-administered with a phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitor (PDE5i), for the treatment of erectile dysfunction in patients that do not respond to PDE5i monotherapy.

"Erectile function is controlled by a complex network involving primary afferents, spinal interneurons, and autonomic nerves. Neurological disorders can interfere with this regulation by impacting the endocrine or cardiovascular systems, and neuropathy, whether central or peripheral, is a known contributor to erectile dysfunction."

"It's important to distinguish between erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation, as men may misreport symptoms. A man with premature ejaculation might claim erectile issues due to early loss of erection, while one with erectile dysfunction may report premature ejaculation from rushing to climax. Though often confused, both conditions can also occur simultaneously."

"Diabetes is a major risk factor for erectile dysfunction, with evidence from both human and animal studies dating back to the 1970s. Chronic high blood sugar may impair nitric oxide production, disrupt the cGMP pathway, increase oxidative stress, activate the RhoA/Rho kinase pathway, and damage nerves. These mechanisms are believed to contribute to ED in diabetic patients."
