Renal Disease Market Analysis

ID: MRFR//2289-CR | 157 Pages | Author: Kinjoll Dey| February 2021

The market dynamics of the Renal Disease market are centered around addressing the complexities of kidney-related disorders, emphasizing the need for comprehensive solutions and advancements in nephrology. Understanding the multifaceted factors influencing this dynamic healthcare sector is crucial for effective management and treatment of renal diseases.
A major market dynamic is the growing incidence of Chronic Kidney Diseases (CKD), which stands currently as one of the biggest threats. Factors like attaining age, better lifestyles, and increase in diabetes conditions all contributes to the crease in demand for kidney failure management and treatment.
Renal replacement therapy (RRT) being a major prospect in the market, further improvement in RRT modalities especially in dialysis technologies, strongly contributes to the market success. Innovations in the delivery and application of hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis methods capture the market, leading to better patients results, which is the reason for both the growth and evolution of the market.
The market is influenced by kidney transplant innovations directly or indirectly. The recent improvements in organ preservation, long-term immunosuppressive medication regimens, and expanded living donor programs generally lean toward higher success rates leading the way in renal disease treatment care.
The best prevention and possibly the most prolific of them all is the emphasis on preventive care and early detection, a major factor predominantly in the market. Consequently, public health activities that led to prompt diagnosis of kidney diseases in the first place have been in the frontline leading to mere the existence of suppliers.
The evolution of the market is also dependent on new pharmaceutical developments in renal therapies. New medications for instance, glomerulonephritis and what we call the diabetic nephropathy have been in development. This therefore, leads to diverse treatment options and ultimately affects the competition landscape.
Government policies and market reforms in the area of health care often significant affect the dynamics of the market. Owing to policies on the organ donation, executing the renal treatments with reimbursement handed in, and the initiatives of improving access to healthcare goods also have influences on the renal disease market.
The global nature of organ transplantation requires collaborative efforts. International collaboration in organ donation initiatives, sharing best practices, and addressing barriers to transplantation contribute to a more cohesive global response in the renal disease market.
The focus on patient-centered care and improving the quality of life for individuals with renal diseases is a significant factor in market dynamics. Holistic approaches that address not only medical needs but also psychosocial aspects contribute to shaping the future of renal disease management.

Renal Disease Market Trends



  • Increasing Cases of Diabetes and Hypertension to Boost the Market Growth


Diabetes, hypertension, and kidney failure are three conditions that are closely related and impact each other. The millions of minuscule filtering units within each kidney are damaged over time by excessive amounts of sugar in the blood, leading to kidney failure. According to a report by The International Diabetes Federation (IDF), in March 2020, 13.3% of the total population of the US approximately around 30,987,900 people are diabetic. IDF also predicts that by 2045, the North America and Caribbean (NAC) region will have 63 million diabetic people in the region.


Furthermore, hypertension also negatively impacts proper kidney functioning. Uncontrolled high blood pressure can narrow, weaken, or stiffen the arteries surrounding the kidneys over time. These arteries cannot carry enough oxygenated blood to the renal tissue due to their impairment causing kidney tissue damage. According to the National Kidney Foundation, uncontrolled high blood pressure is the second leading cause of kidney failure in the US. In addition, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), hypertension is a primary cause of stroke, heart attack, and renal failure. Hypertension, obesity, diabetes, and heart failure were responsible for 64 % of Covid-19 hospitalizations during the pandemic. Obese people are also more likely to develop hypertension. Therefore, increasing diabetes and hypertension cases across the globe increases the demand for dialysis, anti-hypertensive & diabetes medication, and Kidney transplantation leading to the growth of the renal disease market.


Renal Disease Market Segment Insights


Renal Disease, Disease Type Insights


The renal disease market segmentation, based on disease type, includes chronic kidney disease, and end-stage renal disease. The chronic kidney disease type segment held the majority share in 2022 in respect to the renal disease market revenue. Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), also called chronic kidney failure, is characterized by loss of kidney function over time. The main risk factors for CKD are high blood pressure, diabetes, and heart disease. According to the National Kidney Foundation, the treatment of chronic kidney disease is likely to exceed USD 48 billion per year in the US.


May 2021 The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved AstraZeneca’s (UK) Farxiga (dapagliflozin) for treating chronic kidney disease (CKD) in patients who are at risk of progression with and without type-2 diabetes


Renal Disease Treatment Insights


The renal disease market segmentation, based on treatment, includes dialysis, medication, and kidney transplantation. The dialysis segment dominated the market in 2022 in respect to the  renal disease market. Dialysis is the removal of waste products and excess fluid such as water, solutes, and toxins from the blood when the kidneys stop working properly. It is generally performed when 85-90% of kidney function is gone, GFR falls below 15, and kidneys no longer work well enough to sustain a patient’s body. According to the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, in 2019, more than 661,000 Americans had kidney failure, with 468,000 of those individuals on dialysis. The dialysis segment involves antihypertensive drugs, erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs), potassium binders, and phosphate binders. Antihypertensive drugs are used to lower the high blood pressure of the patient.


May 2021 Teva Pharmaceuticals (Israel) launched the first available generic version, in the US, of THIOLA (tiopronin) tablets, indicated, in combination with high fluid intake, alkali, and diet modification, for the prevention of cystine (kidney) stone formation in adults and pediatric patients 9 years of age and older with severe homozygous cystinuria, who are not responsive to these measures alone


Renal Disease End User Insights


The renal disease market segmentation, based on indication includes dialysis centers, hospital & clinics, and research and academic institutes. The dialysis centers held the largest market share in 2022 with respect to the renal disease market revenue. Dialysis centers provide dialysis for patients with chronic kidney failure. In dialysis centers, trained nurses and technicians perform the procedure on patients with renal diseases.


December 2020 GlaxoSmithKline plc (UK) received the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for BENLYSTA (belimumab) for the treatment of adult patients with active lupus nephritis (LN) who are receiving standard therapy
