Plasma protease C1-inhibitor treatment involves administering human plasma-derived C1-inhibitor concentrate to treat hereditary angioedema (HAE). HAE is a rare genetic disorder caused due to low levels of the C1-inhibitor protein in blood that leads to recurrent skin swelling, laryngeal edema, and abdominal pain.
The global Plasma Protease C1-inhibitor Treatment Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 5432.28 Mn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 18% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
Market Dynamics:
The growing prevalence of hereditary angioedema globally is expected to drive the plasma protease C1-inhibitor treatment market growth over the forecast period. According to a report by HAEi (U.S. Hereditary Angioedema Association), HAE affects approximately 1 in 10,000 to 1 in 50,000 people worldwide. Moreover, as per National Organization for Rare Disorders (NORD), approximately 1 in 50,000 people in the United States have HAE. Early diagnosis and prevention of recurrent HAE attacks is important to avoid potentially life-threatening airway swelling. Plasma protease C1-inhibitor treatment provides on-demand therapy to patients and helps to prevent HAE attacks, thereby boosting the market growth. Further, ongoing research and development of long acting drugs for prophylactic treatment of HAE is also anticipated to present lucrative opportunities in the market during the forecast period.
Segment Analysis
The global Plasma Protease C1-inhibitor Treatment market is segmented into Hereditary Angioedema (HAE) and Acquired Angioedema. Hereditary Angioedema is currently the dominant segment as it is the primary disease condition treated by plasma protease C1-inhibitor. HAE affects approximately 1 in 10,000 to 1 in 50,000 people globally and causes recurring attacks of swelling that can affect various body parts including arms, legs, face, intestinal tract, and airway. If left untreated, HAE attacks may cause asphyxiation.
PEST Analysis
Political: The market is subject to stringent regulations pertaining to plasma-derived therapy approval and reimbursement policies that differ across countries and regions.
Economic: Rising healthcare expenditures coupled with increasing patient awareness levels is expected to drive market growth over the forecast period.
Social: Growing emphasis on rare disease treatment and prevention of fatality risk are major social factors propelling the market.
Technological: Advancements in protein engineering and gene therapy approaches are promising areas that could supplement existing plasma-based treatment options in the future.
