Pruritus, or chronic itching, is increasingly viewed as an independent condition requiring specific treatment, rather than just a symptom of various skin, liver, and kidney disorders. Current therapies provide only temporary relief, prompting a surge in research to tackle the sensory and inflammatory causes of pruritus.
DelveInsight’s “Pruritus – Pipeline Insight, 2025” reviews more than 30 active candidates in development, including kappa opioid receptor agonists, IL-31 and JAK inhibitors, neurokinin-1 receptor antagonists, and other nerve-modulating treatments. Companies like GlaxoSmithKline, Chugai Pharmaceutical, Regeneron/Sanofi, DiverDrugs, Atridia, Asana BioSciences, and others are driving advancements for different types of pruritus, such as those linked to uremia, cholestasis, and atopic dermatitis.
The report offers detailed information on advanced-stage programs, clinical trial structures, and strategies for grouping patients using biomarkers. As knowledge of the neuroimmune pathways behind itching grows, both targeted and broad-spectrum therapies are progressing to improve effectiveness and safety.
This changing field marks a shift toward treating pruritus as a unique area for specialized, condition-tailored solutions.

Key Insights from the Pruritus Pipeline Report
DelveInsight’s analysis of the pruritus pipeline highlights a vibrant field with over 25 active players developing more than 30 experimental drugs for pruritus care.
Leading organizations include GlaxoSmithKline, Chugai Pharmaceutical, Regeneron/Sanofi, DiverDrugs, Atridia, Asana BioSciences, Vanda Pharmaceuticals, Pfizer, Trevi Therapeutics, AbbVie, Lumosa Therapeutics, Luye Pharma Group, and others, all working on their top candidates to improve pruritus management.
Prominent experimental treatments at different development phases include Linerixibat, Nemolizumab, Dupilumab, Parentide, SHR 0410, ASN 008, Tradipitant, Abrocitinib, Nalbuphine extended release, Onabotulinum toxin A, LT 5001, BA 2101, and more.
In May 2025, the FDA issued a safety warning that stopping long-term use of prescription or over-the-counter antihistamines like cetirizine (Zyrtec) or levocetirizine (Xyzal) could lead to rare but intense itching, known as pruritus, within days of cessation.
In June 2025, the FDA approved GlaxoSmithKline’s New Drug Application (NDA) for linerixibat (an IBAT inhibitor), aimed at cholestatic pruritus in primary biliary cholangitis (PBC).

Pruritus Overview
Pruritus, or persistent itching, is a distressing symptom associated with numerous conditions, including skin issues, liver ailments, kidney problems, and some cancers. It significantly affects daily life, often causing sleep issues and mental strain. Traditional options like antihistamines and steroids help some patients, but many, especially those with systemic conditions like cholestatic or uremic pruritus, don’t respond well. Recent FDA approvals, such as maralixibat and difelikefalin, along with promising candidates like linerixibat and TH104 in trials, are transforming pruritus care. With ongoing research and patient-centered innovations, the global pruritus market is set to grow, meeting longstanding needs.

Pruritus Treatment Analysis: Drug Profile
Linerixibat: GlaxoSmithKline
Linerixibat, developed by GlaxoSmithKline, is an oral investigational drug under study for cholestatic pruritus in patients with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC). It acts as a poorly absorbed small-molecule blocker of the ileal bile acid transporter (IBAT), designed to reduce bile acid levels in the bloodstream—major triggers of itching—by blocking their reuptake in the small intestine. In 2019, the U.S. FDA granted orphan drug status to linerixibat for PBC-related pruritus, highlighting the need for better options for this underserved group.
