Porphyria Market: Epidemiology, Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity, and Forecast 2024-2034

The 7 major porphyria markets reached a value of US$ 2.7 Billion in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the 7MM to reach US$ 4.6 Billion by 2034, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 4.8% during 2024-2034.

The porphyria market has been comprehensively analyzed in IMARC's new report titled "Porphyria Market: Epidemiology, Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity, and Forecast 2024-2034". Porphyria is a group of rare genetic disorders that result from abnormalities in the heme biosynthesis pathway, which leads to an accumulation of porphyrins and their precursors in the body. This ailment is mainly classified into acute and cutaneous porphyria. Acute porphyria is a short-term condition that primarily affects the nervous system and, in some cases, the skin. The usual symptoms are pain in the chest, abdomen, legs, or back, rapid or irregular heartbeats, seizures, mental changes, etc. Cutaneous porphyria is long-lasting and affects only the skin, leading to pain or blisters when the skin is exposed to sunlight. The symptoms mostly include changes in skin color or scarring, fragile skin, blisters on exposed skin, etc. The diagnosis of porphyria generally involves a combination of medical history, physical examination, and laboratory test procedures. The doctor might look for signs of skin sensitivity, abdominal pain, and muscle weakness during the physical examination. Laboratory tests to diagnose porphyria include measurement of porphyrin and precursor levels in the blood, urine, or stool samples. Additionally, genetic testing may also be used to identify specific enzyme deficiencies associated with different types of porphyria.

The increasing incidence of rare genetic disorders and the rising unmet medical need for effective therapies to treat such conditions are primarily driving the porphyria market. Additionally, the inflating usage of pain management medicines, including nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), opioids, nerve blocks, etc., to help alleviate the abdominal and neurological symptoms associated with the disease is also bolstering the market growth. Furthermore, the shifting preference from hematin injections towards panhematin infusions, since panhematin is easier to obtain, has a longer shelf life, and is less expensive than hematin, is acting as another significant growth-inducing factor. Besides this, the escalating utilization of erythropoietin injections to increase the production of red blood cells and heme in congenital erythropoietic porphyria patients is further creating a positive outlook for the market. Moreover, the widespread adoption of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to measure the levels of porphyrins and other heme precursors in blood, urine, and feces for the diagnosis of the ailment is also propelling the market growth. Apart from this, several biotechnological advancements, including the introduction of synthetic small interfering RNA (siRNA) molecules, which can decrease the buildup of neurotoxic porphyrin precursors and improve quality of life among patients, are expected to drive the porphyria market in the coming years.
