One of these medicines, iptacopan, has recently demonstrated good results in its Phase III trial.


Renal Disease Market Trends



  • Increasing Cases of Diabetes and Hypertension to Boost the Market Growth


Diabetes, hypertension, and kidney failure are three conditions that are closely related and impact each other. The millions of minuscule filtering units within each kidney are damaged over time by excessive amounts of sugar in the blood, leading to kidney failure. According to a report by The International Diabetes Federation (IDF), in March 2020, 13.3% of the total population of the US approximately around 30,987,900 people are diabetic. IDF also predicts that by 2045, the North America and Caribbean (NAC) region will have 63 million diabetic people in the region.


Furthermore, hypertension also negatively impacts proper kidney functioning. Uncontrolled high blood pressure can narrow, weaken, or stiffen the arteries surrounding the kidneys over time. These arteries cannot carry enough oxygenated blood to the renal tissue due to their impairment causing kidney tissue damage. According to the National Kidney Foundation, uncontrolled high blood pressure is the second leading cause of kidney failure in the US. 


In addition, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), hypertension is a primary cause of stroke, heart attack, and renal failure. Hypertension, obesity, diabetes, and heart failure were responsible for 64 % of Covid-19 hospitalizations during the pandemic. Obese people are also more likely to develop hypertension. Therefore, increasing diabetes and hypertension cases across the globe increases the demand for dialysis, anti-hypertensive & diabetes medication, and Kidney transplantation leading to the growth of the renal disease market.
