Thalassemia Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Treatment (Iron Chelating Drugs, Erythroid Maturation Agents, Stem Cell Therapy), By Type (Alpha Thalassemia, Beta Thalassemia), By Region, And Segment Forecasts, 2024 - 2030
Thalassemia Market Growth & Trends
The global thalassemia market size is expected to be valued at USD 1,430.1 million by 2030, as per a new report by Grand View Research, Inc., exhibiting a CAGR of 7.8% from 2024 to 2030. Increase in demand for a universal cure, rise in awareness about the disease, and technological advancements are likely to increase the adoption of gene therapies.
Thalassemia is a general term for a group of inheritable blood disorders, in which the body produces abnormal hemoglobin, resulting in the destruction of red blood cells. This ultimately leads to anemia. There are two main types of thalassemia: alpha-thalassemia and beta-thalassemia, the latter being more serious. Beta-thalassemia is a common autosomal recessive disorder worldwide and it is relatively rare in the U.S.
Increase in the incidence of thalassemia is anticipated to fuel market growth. Despite technological advancements, the unmet need for a reliable treatment option still exists. Treatment of thalassemia is mostly restricted to regular blood transfusions and iron chelation therapy. Drugs prescribed for thalassemia mostly cure symptoms and side effects such as anemia, iron overload, and vitamin deficiency. However, gene therapy is emerging as a reliable treatment option for the disease.
Prevalence of thalassemia is reported to increase gradually over the years across different regions. This can be attributed to population migration, intermarriages, and genetic and environmental factors prompting the condition and its implications.
