Increasing Research Activities and Clinical Trials are Expected to Drive the Growth of the Market

There are continuously increasing research activities and clinical trials, which are expected to drive market share over the forecast period. The increasing research activities and clinical trials in the field of postpartum depression helps in the development of advanced treatment options for the better treatment by considering the safety and efficacy of the treatment and with affordable costs. The research activities in the field of postpartum depression mainly focus on early drug absorption, which helps to reduce the symptoms early.

For instance, on September 26, 2022, Brii Biosciences Limited, a multi-national company developing innovative therapies, announced top-line results from a Phase 1 study evaluating its long-acting, single-injection therapy, BRII-296, in development for the treatment of postpartum depression (PPD). These data show that a single treatment via intramuscular (IM) injection of 600 mg of BRII-296 achieved dose linearity, early drug absorption, and gradual and extended-release profiles without the need for dose titration or tapering, providing confidence that this dose has the potential to achieve clinical efficacy in the treatment of PPD.

Moreover, the ongoing research activities on postpartum depression enhance the treatment opportunities with better patient outcomes, and the development of innovative treatment approaches has led to the discovery of potentially novel treatment options such as light therapies for enhanced treatment. These advancements increase the way for the introduction of novel drugs and therapies by reducing the symptoms.

For instance, on October 13, 2022, the University of Michigan announced that they started recruiting for clinical trials on a wearable morning light treatment for postpartum depression. This study will test a consumer health light therapy device (Re-Timer) for women with postpartum depression to better understand how it affects mood and the body clock (also called the circadian clock). It is estimated that the study will end on May 13, 2025.

Increasing Demand for Innovative Therapeutics is Expected to Drive the Growth of the Postpartum Depression Market

There increasing demand for innovative therapeutics, which is expected to drive the market over the forecast period. The existing therapies such as psychotherapy and various antidepressants and anti-anxiety medicines show good results. But, still, there is a continuously increasing demand for innovative therapeutics like novel antidepressant drugs with enhanced results by identifying the severity of the disease and reducing the symptoms in a very short period.

For instance, on August 04, 2023, Biogen Inc. and Sage Therapeutics, Inc. announced the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved ZURZUVAE (zuranolone) 50 mg for adults with postpartum depression (PPD). ZURZUVAE is the first and only oral, once-daily, 14-day treatment that can provide rapid improvements in depressive symptoms for women with PPD. ZURZUVAE is expected to launch and be commercially available in the fourth quarter of 2023 shortly following scheduling as a controlled substance by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, which is anticipated to occur within 90 days.

Moreover, some patients with postpartum depression may get confused about their condition and situation, so early detection may helps to reduce the severity of the condition. The innovative tests and AI technologies are helps to identify the disease at home in the early stages. This early detection of the condition helps to treat the condition in the early stages with novel therapeutics which shows better results.

For instance, on April 03, 2023, UVA Health and Dionysus Digital Health, a digital health start-up aims to launch an at-home blood test and AI-driven app this fall that could predict the risk of postpartum depression as early as in the third trimester. Still in its early stages, the company eventually intends to file for US FDA clearance of the test.

Lack of Knowledge and Awareness is Expected to Hamper the Market's Growth

The lack of knowledge and awareness about postpartum depression and its associated medications is expected to hamper the growth of the market. The awareness of postpartum depression may helps in the early detection and seeks to better treatment, but this lack of awareness may leads to the severity of the condition. Limited awareness can result in less funding for research into postpartum depression, potentially slowing down the development of innovative diagnostic methods and treatment options.

When postpartum depression is not promptly recognized and treated, it can worsen over time, leading to more severe symptoms and longer recovery periods. This delayed treatment can have long-term implications for both the mother and the child. Many cases of postpartum depression go undiagnosed or untreated due to a lack of awareness about the condition. Women and healthcare providers may not recognize the symptoms, leading to missed opportunities for intervention and treatment.
