The global binge eating disorder market is expected to be driven by growing awareness of the condition and development of treatments for the disorder. The increasing number of doctors trained to treat the condition is also expected to contribute to market growth. North America, Europe and Asia are expected to be key markets.
Binge eating disorder may be seen in across all age groups, races, and income levels, however, it seems most prevalent among women. Among men, it is the most common eating disorder. Several companies are engaged in developing new treatments for the disorder. For example, in 2022, Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holding Corp. and Massachusetts General Hospital announced an agreement to assess TNX-1900 as a probable treatment for patients with binge eating disorder. The investigator-initiated phase 2 clinical trial, which was expected to launch in the second half of 2022, would be a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of 60 patients diagnosed with both binge eating disorder and obesity.
