Global Immunoglobulin Market - 2023-2030

Global Immunoglobulin Market - 2023-2030


Global inflammatory myositis treatment market reached US$ XX million in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ XX million by 2030, growing at a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period 2023-2030.

Immunoglobulins (Ig) which are also known as antibodies are the glycoproteins produced by plasma cells. B cells are instructed by specific immunogens, such as bacterial proteins, to differentiate into plasma cells, which are protein-making cells that participate in humoral immune responses against bacteria, viruses, fungi, parasites, cellular antigens, chemicals, and synthetic substances. The immunogen or antigen reacts with a B-cell receptor on the cell surface of B lymphocytes. A signal is produced that directs the activation of transcription factors to stimulate the synthesis of antibodies, which are highly specific for the immunogen that stimulated the B cell.

Moreover, the various immunoglobulins produced by plasma cells are classified by isotype, each differs in function and antigen responses primarily due to structure variability. The five major antibody classes that have been identified in placental mammals, they are IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG, and IgM. This classification is based on differences in amino acid sequence in the constant region of the antibody heavy chains. IgG and IgA are further grouped into subclasses based on additional small differences in the amino acid heavy chain sequences. These are used to treat many autoimmune and other chronic disorders.

Market Dynamics: Drivers

Increasing demand for innovative immunoglobulins

The increasing demand for innovative immunoglobulins is expected to drive the market over the forecast period. The innovative immunoglobulins are mainly designed to treat various types of diseases and they aim to address the unmet needs associated with the management and treatment of various disorders by providing alternative or complementary treatment options. Regulatory approvals such as FDA approvals are also increasing, which further increases the adoption of immunoglobulins.

For instance, on May 19, 2023, AbbVie, cleared that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved EPKINLYTM (epcoritamab-bysp), as the first and only T-cell engaging bispecific antibody for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), not otherwise specified (NOS), including DLBCL arising from indolent lymphoma, and high-grade B–cell lymphoma (HGBL), after two or more lines of systemic therapies. EPKINLY is an IgG1-bispecific antibody created using Genmab's proprietary DuoBody technology.

Moreover, immunoglobulins have traditionally been used for conditions such as primary immunodeficiency disorders and autoimmune diseases. However, researchers and pharmaceutical companies are focussing on exploring their potential for treating and diagnosing a broader range of conditions by using immunoglobulins.

For instance, on August 24, 2023, Thermo Fisher Scientific, the world leader in serving science, launched the EXENT Solution, after receiving IVDR certification. The EXENT solution is a fully integrated and automated mass spectrometry system designed to transform diagnosis and assessment for patients with monoclonal gammopathies, including multiple myeloma. The analyzer is combined with the EXENT Immunoglobulin Isotypes (GAM) immunoassay, a highly sensitive and specific immunoassay for measuring and quantifying IgG, IgA, and IgM.

Additionally, on March 29, 2022, Sanofi partnered with IGM Biosciences to create, develop, manufacture and commercialize six immunoglobulin M (IgM) antibody agonists, three against oncology targets and the other three against immunology/inflammation targets.

Further, the increasing prevalence of immunodeficiency and other immune-related disorders, rising FDA approvals, increasing clinical trials, increasing awareness and advancements in the development of novel products are the factors expected to drive the market over the forecast period.

Restraints

Factors such as severe and rare side effects of immunoglobulins like transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI), acute renal failure, anaphylaxis to IgE or IgG antibodies to IgA, arrhythmias, aseptic meningitis, arthritis, hepatitis, pleural effusion and other dermatological manifestations are expected to hamper the market.

Segment Analysis

The global immunoglobulin market is segmented based on type, form, application, route of administration, end-user and region.

The immunoglobulin G (IgG) segment accounted for approximately 52.1% of the immunoglobulin market share

The immunoglobulin G (IgG) segment is expected to hold the largest market share over the forecast period. Immunoglobulin G is further subdivided into four types, they are IgG1, IgG2, IgG3 and IgG4. IgG is the most commonly abundant class of antibodies in the human body, constituting about 75-80% of the total immunoglobulin pool. It is found in the blood and tissues and is crucial for long-term immunity. IgG can neutralize toxins and viruses, preventing them from infecting cells.

Furthermore, intravenous immunoglobulins involve the administration of IgG antibodies extracted from the plasma of thousands of donors. These intravenous immunoglobulins are used to boost the immune system in patients with immunodeficiency disorders and to modulate immune responses in certain autoimmune conditions.

For instance, on September 21, 2023, Biotest AG launched its intravenous immunoglobulin Yimmugo (IgG Next Generation) and got approval in the United Kingdom for the treatment of patients with congenital and acquired immunodeficiencies and for immunomodulation, following approvals in Germany and Austria.

Additionally, on January 6, 2023, Eisai Co., Ltd. and Biogen Inc. released the approval from U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for lecanemab-irmb (LEQEMBI) 100 mg/mL injection for intravenous use, a humanized immunoglobulin gamma 1 (IgG1) monoclonal antibody directed against aggregated soluble and insoluble forms of amyloid beta (Aβ) for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD).

Geographical Analysis

North America accounted for approximately 41.1% of the market share

North America region is expected to hold the largest market share over the forecast period owing to the strong presence of major players and increasing adoption of immunoglobulins. North America especially the United States is known for its strong presence of major players such as pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology companies. The presence of major players actively performing research activities to develop immunoglobulin products for the treatment of various diseases.

For instance, on April 11, 2023, Takeda cleared that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved a supplemental biologics license application to expand the use of HYQVIA to treat primary immunodeficiency (PI) in children 2-16 years old. HYQVIA is the only subcutaneous immune globulin infusion that can be administered once a month, every three or four weeks and was first approved in the U.S. for the treatment of PI in adults.

Furthermore, the increasing adoption of immunoglobulins in the region is also driving the market in the region. There is a continuously increasing prevalence of immunodeficiency disorders in the region, further increasing the adoption of immunoglobulins for the treatment and management of these disorders. For instance, according to the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology (JACI), 2020, the prevalence of primary immunodeficiency disorders in the United States is estimated at 1 in 2000 individuals.
