Erythropoietin Drugs Market Report by Drug Class (Biologics, Biosimilars), Product Type (Epoetin-alfa, Epoetin-beta, Darbepoetin-alfa, and Others), Application (Hematology, Kidney Disorder, Cancer, and Others), End-User (Hospitals, Homecare, Specialty Clinics, and Others), and Region 2024-2032


The global erythropoietin drugs market size reached US$ 11.0 Billion in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 17.3 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 5% during 2024-2032. The growing prevalence of anemia and cancer, increasing application in treating chronic kidney disease, and rising awareness among the masses about the potential effects of the drug represent some of the key factors driving the market.

Erythropoietin (EPO) drugs comprise various drugs, such as epoetin-alfa, epoetin-beta, and darbepoetin-alfa, that are consumed to cure EPO deficiency in the body. They are manufactured synthetically using recombinant deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) technology. They stimulate the production of red blood cells (RBCs) in bone marrow and regulate the concentration of hemoglobin in the body. They assist in enhancing endurance, reducing tiredness, increasing metabolism, and improving the healing process of muscles while maintaining a healthy amount of erythrocytes in the body. They are utilized to treat various diseases, such as anemia, end-stage renal disease, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and hematology, among individuals. Besides this, EPO drugs are consumed by athletes to enhance their performance and aerobic capacity, as they benefit in increasing the availability of oxygen to their muscles.

Erythropoietin Drugs Market Trends:

At present, the rising demand for EPO drugs among the masses due to the increasing prevalence of cancer and neurological diseases, such as autism, brain tumors, cerebral palsy, epilepsy, and attention deficit disorder (ADD), among individuals represents one of the key factors supporting the growth of the market. Besides this, the growing awareness among the masses about the EPO drugs and their effectiveness is offering a positive market outlook. Additionally, there is a rise in the need for surgical interventions among the masses around the world. This, coupled with the increasing utilization of EPO drugs to reduce allogeneic blood transfusions after surgical procedures in patients, is propelling the growth of the market. Apart from this, the rising number of chronic kidney disease (CKD) cases among individuals across the globe are offering lucrative growth opportunities to industry investors. Moreover, various benefits offered by EPO drugs, such as increasing red blood cells (RBCs) and reducing fatigue, are positively influencing the market. In addition to this, the rapid commercialization of erythropoietin biosimilars around the world is impelling the growth of the market. This, coupled with the increasing preference for biosimilar drugs rather than reference drugs across the globe, is contributing to the growth of the market. Furthermore, the rising utilization of EPO drugs as novel therapeutic agents in research institutes for numerous research purposes is strengthening the growth of the market.
