Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis Market: Epidemiology, Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity, and Forecast 2024-2034


The 7 major primary sclerosing cholangitis markets are expected to exhibit a CAGR of 5.84% during 2024-2034.

The primary sclerosing cholangitis market has been comprehensively analyzed in IMARC's new report titled "Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis Market: Epidemiology, Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity, and Forecast 2024-2034". Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) refers to a chronic liver disease characterized by inflammation, scarring, and narrowing of the bile ducts inside as well as outside the liver. Some of the common symptoms include fatigue, itching (pruritus), abdominal pain or discomfort, jaundice, dark urine, pale stools, unintended weight loss, etc. These indications can vary in severity and may be intermittent. Additionally, the ailment is often associated with inflammatory bowel disease, particularly ulcerative colitis, and individuals suffering from PSC may experience various related symptoms, such as diarrhea, rectal bleeding, abdominal cramping, etc. Diagnosing primary sclerosing cholangitis involves a combination of clinical evaluation, imaging studies, and laboratory procedures. The diagnostic process typically begins with a thorough medical history and physical examination, followed by blood tests to assess liver function and identify specific serological markers associated with PSC. Numerous imaging techniques, including magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, are used to visualize the bile ducts and check for characteristic abnormalities like strictures or narrowing. Additionally, a liver biopsy may be performed in certain cases to confirm the diagnosis or rule out other liver conditions.

The increasing cases of immune system dysfunction in which the immune system mistakenly attacks the bile ducts, thereby leading to inflammation and scarring, are primarily driving the primary sclerosing cholangitis market. Besides this, the rising prevalence of several associated risk factors, such as alterations in the composition and function of the gut microbiota, chronic inflammation in the bile ducts, genetic predisposition, a history of chronic bacterial cholangitis, etc., is propelling the market growth. Additionally, the widespread adoption of antibiotics, including ciprofloxacin and trimethoprim, for managing bacterial infections and preventing recurrent episodes of cholangitis is acting as another significant growth-inducing factor. Apart from this, the escalating application of immune modulators, such as obeticholic acid (OCA) and fibrates, to modulate the immune response and reduce liver inflammation in patients is also bolstering the market growth. Furthermore, the ongoing advancements in endoscopic techniques, including the introduction of digital cholangioscopy and single-operator cholangioscopy, which enable the removal of bile duct stones, biopsy of suspicious lesions, and dilation of strictures with improved precision, are expected to drive the primary sclerosing cholangitis market in the coming years.

IMARC Group's new report provides an exhaustive analysis of the primary sclerosing cholangitis market in the United States, EU5 (Germany, Spain, Italy, France, and United Kingdom) and Japan.
