Precocious Puberty Treatment Global Market Report 2024

The precocious puberty treatment market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.57 billion in 2023 to $1.71 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.1%. The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to various factors, including the increased incidence of precocious puberty, a rise in awareness leading to early diagnosis, concerns expressed by patients and parents, collaborative efforts within the pediatric healthcare sector, and advocacy by pediatric endocrinologists.

The precocious puberty treatment market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.3 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.6%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the expansion of pediatric healthcare infrastructure, the adoption of individualized treatment approaches, a heightened focus on psychosocial well-being, global health initiatives, and educational programs for patients and parents. Major trends expected in the forecast period include advancements in gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) analogues, exploration of novel therapeutic targets, personalized treatment approaches, the integration of long-acting formulations, emphasis on patient compliance and adherence, ongoing research on adjunct therapies, and the utilization of telemedicine for remote monitoring.

The increasing prevalence of hormonal disorders is expected to drive the growth of the precocious puberty treatment market. Hormonal disorders encompass medical conditions involving dysfunction or abnormalities in the endocrine system, responsible for producing and regulating hormones. These disorders can lead to precocious puberty when there is a disruption in the normal regulation of sex hormones, triggering the early activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis, which controls the onset of puberty. For instance, a June 2021 report from the National Library of Medicine, a U.S.-based medical library, indicated a prevalence of around 45 cases per 100,000 people, with a yearly incidence of 4 occurrences per 100,000 people. Therefore, the increasing prevalence of hormonal disorders is a key driver for the growth of the precocious puberty treatment market.

The rising incidence of precocious puberty cases is expected to contribute to the market's growth. Precocious puberty is a condition characterized by the premature onset of puberty in children, with their bodies undergoing adult-such as changes too early. Treatment for precocious puberty aims to regulate hormonal imbalances, support psychological well-being, normalize growth patterns, prevent complications, and address underlying causes. A March 2023 report shared by PLOS, a U.S.-based nonprofit publisher of open-access journals in science, revealed a significant increase in the annual incidence of central precocious puberty (CPP). The incidence rose by 83.3 times in boys, from 1.2 to 100 per 100,000, and 15.9 times in girls, from 88.9 to 1414.7 per 100,000. The annual prevalence in both boys and girls surged significantly, underscoring the growing incidence of precocious puberty cases and driving the demand for related treatments in the market.

The growth of the precocious puberty treatment market may face hindrances due to the impact of COVID-19 during the forecast period. Lockdowns and overwhelmed healthcare systems in specific regions may have disrupted regular healthcare services, including the monitoring and treatment of children with precocious puberty. For example, in July 2023, the National Library of Medicine reported that hospitals faced increased operating expenses for necessary supplies and rapidly escalating labor costs. Total hospital expenses increased by 4.5% from the same period the previous year, and during lockdowns, access to pediatric endocrinologists and necessary diagnostic tests might have been impeded, leading to delays in treatment initiation. Therefore, the impact of COVID-19 is acting as a hindrance to the growth of the precocious puberty treatment market.

Major companies in the precocious puberty treatment market are concentrating on obtaining drug approvals, such as leuprolide acetate injection, to drive organizational growth in the market. The increasing number of drug approvals for precocious puberty treatment, such as leuprolide acetate injection, provides new therapeutic options. For instance, in November 2022, Amneal Pharmaceuticals Inc., a U.S.-based pharmaceutical company, received abbreviated new drug application (ANDA) approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for leuprolide acetate injection. Leuprolide acetate is a synthetic form of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) used to delay sexual development, such as the growth of breasts or testicles and the onset of menstruation.

In June 2022, Eversana Life Science Services LLC, a U.S.-based life sciences company, partnered with Accord BioPharma to support the launch of CAMCEVI for treating advanced prostate cancer in adults in the U.S. CAMCEVI (leuprolide mesylate) is also used to treat central precocious puberty. It is a synthetic hormone similar to a natural hormone produced in the brain, addressing various medical problems, including central precocious puberty. CAMCEVI is the first-ever sterile leuprolide ready-to-inject formulation for subcutaneous injection, delivered in a pre-filled syringe without the need for mixing. Accord BioPharma is a U.S.-based pharmaceutical company focused on developing and marketing treatments for various conditions, including central precocious puberty.
