The late stage chronic kidney disease drugs market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $12.2 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.4%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rising healthcare expenditure, adoption of precision medicine approaches, increasing focus on regenerative medicine, growing emphasis on patient-centered care, global initiatives for kidney disease awareness. Major trends in the forecast period include expansion of regenerative medicine therapies, rise in telemedicine services for CKD management, development of combination therapies, emphasis on early intervention strategies, growing interest in biomarker-based diagnostics.
The high prevalence of chronic kidney diseases is expected to drive the growth of the late-stage chronic kidney disease drug market in the future. Chronic kidney diseases encompass a wide range of conditions that impact the structure and function of the kidneys. Drugs for late-stage chronic kidney disease are utilized to manage blood pressure in patients and reduce protein loss, helping to slow the progression of kidney impairment, alleviate symptoms, and prevent complications. For instance, in May 2024, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), a U.S.-based public health agency, estimated that approximately 14% of U.S. adults - around 35.5 million people - are living with chronic kidney diseases. Therefore, the prevalence of chronic kidney disease is driving the growth of the late-stage chronic kidney disease drug market.
The increasing prevalence of diabetes is anticipated to drive the growth of the late-stage chronic kidney disease (CKD) drug market in the future. Diabetes is a chronic condition marked by elevated blood glucose levels, which can cause significant damage to the heart, blood vessels, eyes, kidneys, and nerves. It is a well-recognized risk factor for developing chronic kidney disease. Individuals with diabetes, particularly those with poorly managed blood sugar levels, face a heightened risk of progressing to late-stage CKD. As the global prevalence of diabetes rises, the incidence of CKD, especially in its advanced stages, is expected to rise correspondingly. For example, in March 2024, the Office for Health Improvement & Disparities, a UK government department, reported that between March 2022 and March 2023, the proportion of individuals with type 1 diabetes receiving all eight recommended care processes increased by 22%, while for type 2 diabetes, the increase was 21%. Additionally, the percentage of patients achieving target HbA1c levels rose to 37.9%, marking the highest level recorded by the National Diabetes Audit (NDA). Therefore, the high prevalence of diabetes is propelling the growth of the late-stage chronic kidney disease drug market.
Product innovation emerges as a prominent trend gaining traction in the late-stage chronic kidney disease drug market, with major companies actively developing new drugs to maintain their market positions. For example, in February 2022, Bayer, a leading Germany-based pharmaceutical and biotechnology company, introduced Kerendia (finerenone) in India. Finerenone, a first-in-class non-steroidal, selective mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist, is recommended for patients with type two diabetes and chronic renal disease. The drug works by preventing the overactivation of the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR), believed to be a factor in the development of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and cardiovascular harm.
Key players in the late-stage chronic kidney disease drugs market are advancing technologies such as continuous subcutaneous infusion methods to enhance treatment effectiveness, improve patient outcomes, and streamline the drug development process. Continuous subcutaneous infusion technology provides a steady delivery of medication through a small device implanted under the skin, ensuring consistent therapeutic levels and increasing patient adherence. For example, in January 2024, AbbVie Inc., a US-based pharmaceutical company, introduced PRODUODOPA (for levodopa/foscarbidopa). This product facilitates a continuous infusion of levodopa, which is essential for maintaining stable dopamine levels in the bloodstream. This is vital for effectively managing symptoms, as it prolongs the duration of "on" time - periods when symptoms are well-managed - while reducing "off" time when symptoms reappear.
In January 2023, AstraZeneca, a UK-based biopharmaceutical and biotechnology company, acquired CinCor Pharma Inc. for $1.3 billion. This strategic acquisition strengthens AstraZeneca's cardiorenal pipeline by adding CinCor's potential medication, baxdrostat (CIN-107), an aldosterone synthase inhibitor (ASI) designed to treat chronic kidney disorders. CinCor Pharma Inc., a US-based clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, is the developer of baxdrostat. The acquisition enhances AstraZeneca's position in the late-stage chronic kidney disease drug market.

Late-stage chronic kidney disease drugs are medications designed to treat end-stage chronic kidney disease, aiming to improve patients' quality of life by arresting the progression of the disease and, in some cases, preventing or delaying the need for dialysis or a kidney transplant.
The primary product types of late-stage chronic kidney disease drugs include calcimimetics, vitamin D, sterols, potassium binders, and calcium-based phosphate binders. Calcimimetics, for instance, constitute a class of medications that enhance signaling and reduce parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels by activating the calcium-sensing receptor allosterically. These drugs address various indications related to late-stage chronic kidney disease, such as hyperparathyroidism, hyperphosphatemia, and hyperkalemia. The distribution channels for these drugs typically include hospital pharmacies, online pharmacies, and retail pharmacies.
