Global Orphan Drugs Competitive Landscape Professional Research Report 2025



Research Summary

Orphan drugs, also known as orphan medicinal products, are pharmaceutical substances developed to diagnose, prevent, or treat rare diseases and conditions that affect a small percentage of the population. These diseases, often referred to as orphan diseases, are typically life-threatening or chronically debilitating and can be genetic, infectious, or autoimmune in nature. Due to the limited prevalence of these conditions, traditional pharmaceutical companies may have little incentive to invest in developing treatments. Orphan drug status is granted by regulatory agencies to incentivize pharmaceutical companies to research and develop therapies for these rare diseases. This designation may include benefits such as extended market exclusivity, tax incentives, and reduced regulatory requirements, encouraging the development of drugs that might otherwise not be economically viable. Orphan drugs have played a significant role in improving the quality of life and life expectancy of individuals with rare diseases.
