Europe Intra-Articular Injection for Osteoarticular Infiltrations Market Size and Forecast (2021 - 2031), Regional Share, Trend, and Growth Opportunity Analysis Report Coverage: By Type [Type 1 Collagen (Polymerized, Hydrolyzed, and Atelocollagen) and Hyaluronic Acid], End User (Hospitals, Orthopedic Clinics, and Others), and Country
The Europe intra-articular injection for osteoarticular infiltrations market size is expected to grow from US$ 97.43 million in 2023 to US$ 157.08 million by 2031; it is projected to register a CAGR of 6.2% during 2023-2031.
Intra-articular injections for osteoarthritis are a medical procedure where medication is injected directly into a joint affected by osteoarthritis. This approach is intended to reduce pain and improve joint function. Increasing awareness among healthcare professionals and patients regarding the benefits of these injections, combined with increasing investment in healthcare infrastructure and innovation, is facilitating increased access to these treatments. The increasing prevalence of osteoarthritis and advancements in injection techniques are noteworthy factors contributing to the expansion of the Europe intra-articular injection for osteoarticular infiltrations market size. However, the side effects associated with intra-articular injections hinder the Europe intra-articular injection for osteoarticular infiltrations market growth.
Intra-articular injections are among the innovative and emerging fields of treatment for osteoarticular infiltrations. Manufacturers are involved in various clinical trials to ensure the safety, efficacy, and reliability of innovative drugs. For instance, in May 2024, the Swedish Company, Synartro, initiated a capital raise of between US$ 3.73 and 7.36 million to conduct a clinical study of the osteoarthritis candidate SYN321. It is in the final phase to secure an EU grant of US$ 2.78 million. Additionally, in April 2023, the company received approval from the Swedish Medical Products Agency and the Swedish Ethical Review Authority to start the phase 1/2a first-in-human clinical study of the investigational drug candidate SYN321. Other market players in the regions are also conducting clinical trials for intra-articular injections, which can lead to the development of innovative products. For instance, in August 2022, Grünenthal, a German company enrolled the first patient in its global clinical Phase III program for resiniferatoxin (RTX). Grünenthal has conducted three trials in ~200 locations across Europe, the US, Latin America, South Africa, and Japan to investigate the safety and effectiveness of intra-articular injections of RTX in adults. The outcomes observed in the trials mainly focus on an improvement in the physical function and pain score in the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities (WOMAC) osteoarthritis index from baseline to 52 weeks. Upon completion, the Phase III program is intended to provide marketing approval for RTX in Europe, the US, and Japan. The company intends to submit a new drug application in 2024, indicating the potential market entry of RTX in 2025. Therefore, the increasing number of clinical trials are expected to enhance the development of innovative products in the region, which, in turn, will contribute to the Europe intra-articular injection for osteoarticular infiltrations market growth in coming years.
