Increasing burden of rheumatology diseases globally is propelling the growth of rheumatology therapeutics market

The increase in population with some sort of rheumatology arthritis globally is major driving factor for the rheumatology therapeutics market. According to data given by Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in 2013, around 52.5 million of adults in the U.S. have suffered from rheumatology arthritis, which equals to 23% of the population with 1% being the prevalence rate of rheumatology diseases globally. According to the Global Burden of Disease 2010 study data, prevalence rate for knee arthritis globally was 3.8% and for hip osteoarthritis was 0.85% globally. Additionally, technological advancements in medical field, investments in the healthcare sector over research and development, and rising trend of fitness are important factors contributing to the growth of rheumatology therapeutics market. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2014, government spent 15.5% on healthcare sector.

However, introduction of biosimilars is major restraint for rheumatology therapeutics market. Increasing demand for biosimilar may hinder the conventional drug commonly used for rheumatology diseases treatment. Patent expiry of some drugs used in the treatment of rheumatology diseases is also hampering the growth of rheumatology therapeutics market. For instance, patent expiry of Enbrels drug in 2012.
