Disease modification can be defined as treatments that affect the underlying pathophysiology of the disease and have a beneficial outcome. In the struggle to decrease the development of disease in many inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, and psoriatic arthritis, multiple sclerosis, and Crohn's disease, the disease-modifying agent class, including treatments such as anti-TNF agents and immunomodulators, averting the progression of each disease and also the market is experiencing notable growth. However, the landscape has changed with the entry of disease-modifying agents. Several new disease-modifying drugs are in the line, all of which will offer important options for patients with these diseases, thus promoting the growth of the disease-modifying agents market.
COVID-19 Impact analysis
Pharmaceutical and biotech companies together with governments around the globe are working to address the COVID-19 outbreak, from supporting the development of vaccines to planning for medicine supply chain challenges. Currently, around 115 vaccine candidates and 155 molecules are in the R&D pipeline. Moreover, commonly used drugs such as Hydroxychloroquine have witnessed a dramatic surge in demand for the management of COVID-19. Such high demand for these drugs has presented huge opportunities for manufacturers of COVID-19 management drugs, as many developed countries are facing shortage of these drugs. Thus, the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry is expected to witness a significant growth in the future owing to the demand for vaccine and treatment drugs for COVID-19. This in turn is expected to have a significant impact on the disease-modifying agents market.
Top Impacting Factors
- Increase in cases of inflammatory diseases, surge in geriatric population, rise in demand for minimally invasive procedure & advanced treatments such as disease modifying agents are the factors that drive the growth of the disease modifying agents market.
- Disease-modifying anti-rheumatic agents work to suppress the body's overactive immune and/or inflammatory systems; anti-TNFs are extremely effective treatments; disease-modifying agents are also effective for osteoarthritis; however, the agents are still under the clinical trial phase. Limited availability of products is anticipated to provide a lucrative opportunity to launch disease-modifying agents in the market.
- Few factors expected to hinder the growth of the disease modifying agents market include drug recalls by the FDA and EMA and increase in cost of multiple sclerosis disease-modifying agents.
