Qualitative and quantitative insights were obtained by interviewing supply-side and demand-side stakeholders during the primary research process. CEOs, VPs of Clinical Development, regulatory affairs leaders, and commercial directors from gene therapy developers, biotechnology firms, and rare disease pharmaceutical manufacturers comprised supply-side sources. The demand-side sources included procurement leads from specialized metabolic centers, children's hospitals, academic medical centers, and rare disease treatment centers, as well as board-certified geneticists, pediatric metabolic specialists, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation physicians, and medical genetic counselors. Market segmentation was validated, clinical pipeline timelines were confirmed, and insights regarding treatment adoption patterns, pricing strategies, reimbursement dynamics, and patient access programs were obtained through primary research.

Global market valuation was derived through revenue mapping and patient volume analysis. The methodology included:
Identification of 25+ key manufacturers and biotechnology firms across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Latin America specializing in lysosomal storage disorder therapeutics
Product mapping across enzyme replacement therapy (Elaprase, Hunterase), gene therapy pipeline candidates (UX111, RGX-121), and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
Analysis of reported and modeled annual revenues specific to Hunter Syndrome treatment portfolios
Coverage of manufacturers representing 75-80% of global market share in 2024
Extrapolation using bottom-up (prevalent patient population × treatment penetration × annual cost of therapy by country) and top-down (manufacturer revenue validation) approaches to derive segment-specific valuations across disease severity (mild, moderate, severe), treatment type, route of administration, and end-user categories
