Subcutaneous Immunoglobulin Market Size (2024 - 2029)

Subcutaneous Immunoglobulin Market Analysis

The Subcutaneous Immunoglobulin Market size is estimated at USD 11.70 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 19.70 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 11% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on the market. Some biopharmaceutical companies, such as Merck & Co. Inc. and Eli Lilly and Company, announced clinical trial delays due to the pandemic. For instance, data from ClinicalTrials.gov published in November 2022 indicated that more than 200 interventional oncology studies were suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, 60% of institutions in the United States and 86% in Europe enroll new patients at a lower rate. Therefore, it was observed that the pandemic significantly affected the market growth. However, the market has reached its pandemic nature in terms of research and is expected to witness strong growth.

The major factors attributing to the growth of the market include the increasing use of subcutaneous immunoglobulin for primary immunodeficiency disorders, the increasing geriatric population, and the patient pool.

The increasing burden of immuno-deficiency diseases such as HIV is propelling market growth. For instance, as per the data from NACO published in August 2022, there were around 2.4 million HIV cases in India in 2022. Similarly, the data further stated that the number of HIV patients is still high across various countries such as South Africa and Nigeria, which is believed to contribute significantly to the market growth in the coming years.

Also, as per the Wiley Online Library article published in April 2022, it was indicated that up to 1 in 25,000 people worldwide are born with common variable immunodeficiency (CVID), a genetic disorder that can cripple patients' immune defenses. The data also stated that the overall burden of CVID has been rising in recent years, which is the leading factor responsible for the market growth.

The market players are heavily invested in drug development and approval due to the increasing burden of targeted diseases. For instance, in January 2024, Takeda Pharmaceutical received the United States approval from the US FDA for its HYQVIA to treat a rare, acquired, immune-mediated neuromuscular disorder. Also, in April 2022, Kite Pharma Inc. received product approval from the US FDA for its axicabtagene ciloleucel (Yescarta) for adult patients with large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL). Hence, such approvals and launches of new therapies are expected to propel the market growth.

However, stringent government regulations and the high risk of side effects from the treatment are some factors restraining market growth.
