The prevalence populations of many indications within immunology are increasing, which is one of the major drivers of growth in the market.
For example, the prevalence population of rheumatoid arthritis across the seven major markets is expected to increase from 6.11 million in 2016 to 6.66 million in 2023.
There are several drugs that have recently been approved, including Cosentyx and Otezla, that are expected to become blockbuster drugs over the forecast period, generating market growth within immunology.
There are also several drugs in late-stage development that are expected to act as strong growth drivers within the immunology market, with each being forecast to become a blockbuster drug by the end of the forecast period.
These include the sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor agonist ozanimod hydrochloride, Janus kinase inhibitor filgotinib and peanut allergy immunotherapy AR-101.
These drugs are forecast to do well in the market as they have novel targets for the therapy area allowing them to compete and find a niche in an already competitive market space.
All this means that by 2022 the immunology market size will have grown to more than $100bn.
