Fabry Disease Market Trends



  • Growing prevelance of Fabry Disease to propel market growth


Fabry disease, an inherited disorder, causes A type of fat called globotriaosylceramide to accumulate in the body's cells. Fabry disease is characterized by episodes of pain, especially in the hands and feet, clusters of tiny, dark-red skin spots called angiokeratomas, a decreased ability to sweat, cloudiness or streaks in the front of the eye, issues with the gastrointestinal system, ringing in the ears, and hearing loss. According to estimates published by Fabry Institute, an educational platform developed and funded by Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited, 1 in 20,000 females and 1 in 40,000 males are thought to be affected by Fabry disease. Furthermore, a study on lysosomal storage disorders conducted in Australia estimated that there were 1 in 117,000 live births with Fabry disease. Thus, this factor is driving the market CAGR.


Growing R&D activities for a better understanding of the genomics of the disease and its impacts is also one of the key market drivers. Various research institutes and companies are investing in research and development activities on Fabry disease. According to a research study published on Fabry disease, it was estimated that A total of 199 different organizations contributed funding to the study of FD. A total of 1141 research grants (g) on FD were awarded, with private funding making up 48.47% and public funding making up 51.53%. Government funding contributed the most FD grants (g = 485), followed by corporate sponsors (g = 458), educational institutions (g = 76), medical facilities (g = 8), foundations (g = 64), charitable organizations (g = 23), and societies (g = 12). Governmental organizations from countries like Japan, Germany, South Korea, Canada, Brazil, China, the EU, Italy, and Spain were also significant financial backers of FD research. Protalix Biotherapeutics, an Israeli company developing Pegunigalsidase alfa as a potential advantageous replacement for ERT, is a more recent participant in the field of FD-related research.

Increasing R&D activities have also led to a growing pipeline for Fabry disease. Companies are conducting various clinical trials to test their product effectiveness. For instance, Protalix conducted a Phase III study, an open-label switchover study will evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of pegunigalsidase alf (PRX-102) 2 mg/kg given every 4 weeks for 52 weeks in Fabry patients who had previously received ERT: agalsidase alf or agalsidase beta for at least 3 years. Such treatments that will be launched in the coming years will accelerate Fabry Disease market revenue globally.
