Orphan Drug Market Size Worth USD 488.53 Billion in 2032 | Emergen Research

Rising frequency of uncommon illnesses and increasing number of governments providing regulatory incentives for development of orphan drugs are major factors driving orphan drug market revenue growth.


Vancouver, Jan. 08, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The global orphan drug market size was USD 154.20 Billion in 2022 and is expected to register a rapid revenue CAGR of 12.3 % during the forecast period. Rising frequency of uncommon illnesses and increasing number of governments providing regulatory incentives for development of orphan drugs are major factors driving market revenue growth.

A federal law known as the Orphan Disease Act (ODA) addresses rare disorders, sometimes known as orphan diseases, that are either extremely rare or impact fewer than 200,000 Americans (less than 5 per 10,000 in the general population). Similarly, in Europe, an orphan medicine is one that addresses a disease or condition that affects fewer than 5 people in 10,000 (Orphan Medicine Regulation 141/2000).

The rapid growth of the pharmaceutical sector and increasing prevalence of rare diseases are also expected to drive revenue growth of the market. In recent years, there has been a global increase in the occurrence of rare diseases among people. To address this problem, both industrialized and developing countries have created laws that encourage the creation of medications for uncommon illnesses and ensure that these medications are readily available.
