As per MRFR Analysis, the Alagille Syndrome market was valued at USD 0.40 Billion in 2023 and is projected to grow to USD 0.75 Billion by 2032, with a CAGR of 6.32% from 2024 to 2032. Alagille syndrome is a rare genetic disorder affecting the liver and other organs, characterized by a reduced number of bile ducts. Recent FDA approvals for treatments like odevixibat and LIVMARLI have expanded therapeutic options for patients, particularly for cholestatic pruritus associated with the syndrome. The estimated prevalence of Alagille syndrome is 1 in 70,000 newborns, highlighting the need for increased awareness and treatment options.
The Alagille Syndrome market is witnessing significant developments driven by treatment advancements and increasing prevalence.

June 2023:
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has broadened the approved use of odevixibat (Bylvay) to treat cholestatic pruritus linked to Alagille syndrome (ALGS) in patients as young as 12 months. ALGS is an uncommon hereditary condition characterized by the accumulation of bile in the liver due to an insufficient number of bile ducts, resulting in liver injury. ALGS can also impact several organ systems, such as the cardiovascular system, musculoskeletal system, visual system, and renal system. Almost all individuals with the illness exhibit persistent cholestasis, typically occurring within the initial months of birth.
Additionally, up to 88% of these individuals also experience intense and uncontrollable itching. Odevixibat is a powerful, non-systemic inhibitor of bile acid transport in the ileum. The FDA granted approval for the medication in 2021 to treat individuals suffering from cholestatic pruritus caused by progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis. The FDA approval for odevixibat in ALGS was granted based on the findings of the phase 3 ASSERT study. This study assessed the safety and effectiveness of administering 120 µg/kg/day of odevixibat for a duration of 24 weeks. The study aimed to determine the extent to which odevixibat might alleviate pruritus in individuals ranging from newborns to teenagers, aged from birth to 17 years, who have genetically-confirmed ALGS. The research was carried out at 32 locations spanning North America, Europe, the Middle East, and the Asia Pacific region.
March 2024:
Mirum Pharmaceuticals Inc. has declared that the United States. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted approval for the use of LIVMARLI® (maralixibat) oral solution in the treatment of cholestatic pruritus in patients who are at least five years old and have progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis (PFIC). Mirum has filed an additional supplemental new drug application (sNDA) to provide a more concentrated formulation of LIVMARLI, which was utilized in the MARCH research. The purpose of this application is to expand the approved uses of LIVMARLI to include younger patients with PFIC. This label extension is expected to occur later this year. LIVMARLI is authorized for the management of cholestatic pruritus in patients diagnosed with Alagille syndrome (ALGS) in the United States (for individuals aged three months and older), Europe (for individuals aged two months and older), Canada, and other regions worldwide. LIVMARLI has the capacity to bring about a significant and profound change in the treatment of patients suffering from cholestatic pruritus linked to PFIC. It is particularly noteworthy that LIVMARLI provides a viable choice for patients with the most uncommon subtypes of this condition.
This causes the bile to build-up inside the liver, which in turn causes liver scarring and damage. Moreover, the signs and symptoms of this syndrome are generally noticed in infancy or early childhood. Â The growing occurrence of alagille syndrome, increasing healthcare expenditure, and rising prevalence of genetic diseases are anticipated to drive the growth of the market. According to the US National Library of Medicine, the estimated prevalence of alagille syndrome is 1 in 70,000 newborns. Â Despite the drivers, lack of awareness about the syndrome in the developing regions may hamper the growth of the market during the assessment period.
The alagille syndrome global market has been segmented into symptom, treatment, diagnosis, and end-user. The market on the basis of symptom has been segmented into liver problems, nutrition problems, heart problems, distinctive facial features, neurologic problems, and others.
