Global Guillain-Barre Syndrome Drugs Market Report 2024

The Guillain-Barre syndrome drugs market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.08 billion in 2023 to $1.17 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.8%. The historical growth can be credited to advancements in research and development, government initiatives and regulatory support, heightened emphasis on neurology and autoimmune disorders, greater attention to lowering healthcare expenditures, and an uptick in the need for hospital and clinic services.

The Guillain-Barre syndrome drugs market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.59 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8%. The forecasted growth can be linked to the rising incidence rate of Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS), heightened awareness and diagnosis rates, expanding elderly population, escalating importance of hospital and retail pharmacies, and increased demand for oral and injectable medications. Key trends in this period encompass the emergence of novel treatments, progress in diagnostic technologies, partnerships between pharmaceutical firms and research entities, advancements in gene therapy, and improvements in intravenous immunoglobulin therapy.

The expected surge in demand for personalized medicine is set to drive growth in the Guillain-Barre syndrome drugs market. Personalized medicine involves customizing medical treatments based on individual characteristics such as genetics or lifestyle to optimize effectiveness and minimize side effects. This demand is fueled by the potential for more efficient treatments, advancements in genomics, the increasing complexity of diseases, and regulatory backing. In Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS), personalized medicine aims to tailor treatments according to individual patient profiles, improving therapeutic outcomes and reducing adverse effects. For instance, in February 2024, the FDA approved 16 novel personalized therapies for rare diseases, up from six in 2022, as reported by the US-based non-profit organization, Personalized Medicine Coalition. This trend underscores how the rising preference for personalized medicine is pushing growth in the Guillain-Barre syndrome drugs market.

Key players in the guillain-barre syndrome drugs market are innovating by developing products such as humanized monoclonal antibodies to maintain their market presence. Humanized monoclonal antibodies are lab-made antibodies that combine human antibodies with parts of mouse or rat monoclonal antibodies. They are explored as potential therapies due to their ability to target specific immune system components involved in GBS pathology. For example, in October 2023, Annexon Inc., a US-based biopharmaceutical company, announced that ANX005 received orphan drug designation from the European Medicines Agency (EMA) and the FDA for GBS treatment. ANX005, a humanized monoclonal antibody, works by inhibiting C1q to halt complement-mediated inflammation and neuronal damage in early-stage GBS. Annexon has completed target enrollment in a Phase 3 trial of ANX005 in GBS, with top-line data expected in the first half of 2024. ANX005 aims to mitigate inflammation and nerve damage by selectively blocking C1q activity in the nervous system, promoting rapid cessation of autoimmune damage and muscle strength recovery in GBS patients.

In April 2022, Grifols SA, a Spanish pharmaceutical company, acquired Biotest AG for $1.17 billion, aiming to expand and diversify its plasma supply. This strategic move also strengthens Grifols' presence and revenues in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, while fostering collaboration between Grifols and Biotest to improve global access to plasma-derived therapies. Biotest AG, based in Germany, provides drugs for Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) treatment.

Guillain-Barre syndrome drugs are medications designed to address the symptoms and complications associated with Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS), an autoimmune condition characterized by the immune system attacking the nervous system. These drugs primarily target modulating the activity of the peripheral immune system to slow down the disease's progression and alleviate its symptoms.

The primary classes of Guillain-Barre syndrome drugs include immunoglobulins (IVIG), corticosteroids, and plasma exchange. Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) is a medication derived from pooled human blood plasma containing a high concentration of antibodies. It is used as a first-line treatment and in adjunctive or supportive therapy, finding widespread use in clinics, hospitals, and other medical settings.
