The hERG screening market’s growth is slated to happen due to rise in the incidence of cardiac ailments followed by increase in frequency of innovation-based medical approvals. hERG assays are used for screening the compounds that are likely to block hERG potassium channel and delay heart’s QT interval that could cause fatal arrhythmias otherwise.
The companies operating in the hERG screening market are making efforts reach the unexplored geographies to widen the consumer base, thereby trying to contribute toward the reduction of fatalities caused by heart ailments. They are collaborating with the government and non-government agencies to create awareness campaigns regarding the same.
A hERG (Human Ether-a-go-go Related Gene) assay is amongst the laboratory techniques gauging hERG channel protein’s activity. The hERG activity manifests as movement of the potassium ions through pore that is seen in hERG channel protein.
hERG assays are amongst the essential components of nonclinical safety evaluation, which assess basis of drug-induced arrhythmia. The in vitro hERG patch clamp assays have turned out to be standard components with regards to cardiac safety evaluation during non-clinical drug development.
hERG assay can be used for supporting preclinical studies pertaining to heart ailments. They are also recommended in various discovery studies for supporting the cardiac programs.
hERG channel assay facilitates higher throughput as well as specificity with three diverse kinds of radioligands, thereby providing more reliable feedbacks.

Market Drivers |
|
Sedentary habits leading to by common risk factors such as hypertension, diabetes, and hypercholesterolemia are responsible for higher incidences of cardiovascular diseases. As an outcome, the market pertaining to drug discovery would be expanding on an exponential note during the forecast period.
As per the WHO, cardiovascular diseases end up consuming 17.9 million lives every single year. Cardiotoxicity is common in patients suffering from pre-existing heart conditions. It is also common in those who have undergone cardiac surgery or cancer treatment. Cardiotoxicity raises the risk to cardiomyopathy, which, in turn, decreases the capacity of heart to pump blood.
Need to combat cardiotoxicity is thus expanding the hERG screening market size.
The hERG screening market is witnessing a sizable number of innovation-based medical approvals.
For instance, in August 2023, Metrion Biosciences Limited announced that it had obtained notification from the UK’s Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), according to which the company is one of the members of the UK GLP (Good Laboratory Practice) Compliance Monitoring Programme, and is able to provide GLP compliant hERG ion channel screening services to life sciences community at the global level.
In October 2022, the ICH S7B Guideline and Q&A on Clinical and Nonclinical Evaluation of QT/QTc Interval Prolongation and Proarrhythmic Potential stated that it had granted permission to promote human in silico drug trials as a new tool regarding proarrhythmia risk assessment.

Leading Region | North America |
As per the latest hERG screening market insights, North America dominated the hERG screening industry in 2023 and the status quo is expected to remain unchanged during the forecast period. This is attributed to rise in incidence of cardiovascular disorders in the U.S. and Canada.
As per the American College of Cardiology, the U.S. witnesses an occurrence of myocardial infarction every 40 seconds. It further states that 356,460 Americans underwent out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in 2017 alone, and emergency medical services were summoned for 52% of these cases.
Besides, 18.75% of initial cardiac rhythms that were reported were ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation, or shockable by automated external defibrillator.
Europe’s significant hERG screening market share is ascribed to Germany leading from the front, followed by the U.K. Asia Pacific’s cardiac safety screening landscape is dominated by China and India and the scenario is expected to persist during the forecast period.
The key players in the hERG screening are engaging into inorganic modes of expansion including mergers, acquisitions, partnerships, and joint ventures to strengthen their position.
Abcam Limited, ABR-Affinity BioReagents, Inc., AstraZeneca plc, Aureus Sciences, AVIVA Biosciences, Cambridge Biosciences, ChanTest Corporation, Charles River Laboratories, and Chemaxon are some of the key players covered in the hERG screening market report.
These companies have been profiled based on parameters such as company overview, business strategies, financial overview, product portfolio, and business segments.
