Vasomotor Symptoms Treatment Market
Vasomotor Symptoms (VMS) are episodes of profuse heat accompanied by sweating and flushing, which are experienced majorly around the head, neck, chest, and upper back. These are the menopausal symptoms for which women seek treatment most often. VMS, or hot flashes and night sweats, are often considered the cardinal symptoms of menopause. The VMS may also include heart palpitations and changes in blood pressure. At about the age of 40 years, the levels of estrogen and progesterone start to fall in females, and perimenopause (the transition to menopause) begins. As this transition progresses, a female may experience vasomotor symptoms. It has also been observed that the VMS occurs due to constriction or dilation of the blood vessels. The study of Women's Health across the Nation (SWAN) is one of the largest and most ethnically diverse longitudinal studies of the menopausal transition. With the enrollment of thousands of midlife women across five racial/ethnic groups, SWAN followed these women and collected their information regarding vasomotor and other menopause-related symptoms, health behaviors, social and psychological functioning, and a range of physiologic indices, on an annual basis.
The Vasomotor Symptoms report provides an overview of Vasomotor Symptoms pathophysiology, diagnostic approaches, and detailed treatment algorithm along with a real-world scenario of a patient’s journey beginning from the first symptom, the time taken for diagnosis to the entire treatment process.
Further details related to country-based variations in diagnosis are provided in the report...
Vasomotor Symptoms Treatment
The North American Menopause Society (NAMS) recommends no treatment until the hot flashes become bothersome to the woman. The decision to begin treatment should be based on the severity of symptoms, an assessment of treatment-related risks, and the woman’s attitudes about menopause and medications. In most women, hot flashes will abate over time without intervention. The treatment methods can include lifestyle modification, non-prescription remedies, hormonal options, and non-hormonal options. The most commonly prescribed hormone is estrogen, used alone or with a progestogen for women with a uterus. Other hormones used include progestogens alone, oral contraceptives, androgen-estrogen, and custom hormonal preparations.

Vasomotor Symptoms Marketed Drugs
- VEOZAH (fezolinetant): Astellas
VEOZAH is a neurokinin 3 (NK3) receptor antagonist indicated for the treatment of moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms due to menopause. In May 2023, Astellas Pharma announced that the FDA has approved VEOZAH (fezolinetant) 45 mg once daily for the treatment of moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms. VEOZAH blocks neurokinin B (NKB) binding on the kisspeptin/neurokinin B/dynorphin (KNDy) neuron to modulate neuronal activity in the thermoregulatory center of the brain. This helps restore the balance disrupted during menopause which leads to hot flashes and night sweats. The approval is supported by results from the BRIGHT SKY program, which included three Phase III trials enrolling over 3,000 women across the US and Europe. The SKYLIGHT 1 and SKYLIGHT 2 pivotal trials demonstrated the efficacy and safety of fezolinetant for treating moderate to severe VMS due to menopause.
- DUAVEE (conjugated estrogens/bazedoxifene): Pfizer/Ligand Pharmaceuticals
DUAVEE (conjugated estrogens/bazedoxifene) is the first and only therapy to pair conjugated estrogens (CE) with an estrogen agonist/antagonist also known as a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM). DUAVEE uses bazedoxifene instead of progestin to help protect the uterine lining against hyperplasia that may result from estrogen alone treatment. It is recommended to administer DUAVEE as an oral tablet for the treatment of vasomotor symptoms associated with menopause, which was approved in the year 2013 by the US FDA. Later in 2014, Pfizer received EMA approval for DUAVEE.

Vasomotor Symptoms Emerging Drugs
- DONESTA (Estetrol): Mithra Pharmaceuticals/Gedeon Richter
DONESTA (estetrol) is a next-generation orally-administrated Estetrol-based hormone therapy product. It is the first native estrogen with selective action in tissues. Estetrol is a natural estrogen produced by the human fetus and passed into maternal blood at relatively high levels during pregnancy. It acts as an estrogen in the nucleus by activating the nuclear estrogen receptor α (ERα) and recruiting the same coregulator activators and repressors as estradiol (E2), or estriol (E3) in a pattern very different from the selective estrogen receptor modulators, tamoxifen, or raloxifene. In bone, vagina, endometrium, brain, and the vascular system, E4 acts in synergy with the endogenous estrogens and provides similar effects. E4, however, exerts much less effect on the liver and the breast than E2 this may reduce some unwanted side effects of endogenous estrogens. Estetrol has a high oral bioavailability and its elimination half-life is approximately 28 hours. Moreover, in contrast to E2, E4 is not metabolized to other active estrogen metabolites. Currently, DONESTA is in the Phase III stage of clinical development for Vasomotor Symptoms.
In February 2023, Gedeon Richter Plc. and Mithra Pharmaceuticals announced that they signed a license agreement for the commercialization of DONESTA. The territories covered by the agreement are geographical Europe, the CIS countries, Latin America, Australia, and New Zealand. According to Mithra's news release in February 2024, the company is on schedule to file for DONESTA, a treatment for vasomotor symptoms of menopause in both the U.S. and Europe during the fourth quarter of 2024.
- MNGX-100: MenoGeniX
MNGX-100 contains a naturally occurring human protein called G-CSF, also known as granulocyte colony-stimulating factor. It is recommended to inject subcutaneously for the treatment of Vasomotor Symptoms associated with postmenopause. This cytokine (a cell signaling molecule) stimulates the production of neutrophils, a type of white blood cell. MenoGeniX believes that G-CSF is acting on the hypothalamus, the body's thermostat, to counteract the effect of pro-inflammatory cytokines that are often elevated in individuals experiencing menopausal symptoms. MenoGeniX's initial clinical trial results strongly suggest that MNGX-100 will be well-tolerated and will lead to a durable reduction in hot flash frequency and severity. MenoGeniX is currently scaling up for its clinical trial supported by the National Institute on Aging (NIA) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) for the clinical development of MNGX-100 for the treatment of menopausal hot flashes. The grant funding will support a Phase Ib/IIa clinical trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of multiple doses of MNGX-100 in 60 women with naturally occurring or surgically induced menopause.
