Study Period: 2020-2034
Nephrotic Syndrome Overview
Nephrotic syndrome is a clinical syndrome defined by massive proteinuria responsible for hypoalbuminemia, with resulting hyperlipidemia, edema, and various complications. Nephrotic syndrome may stem from diverse underlying factors, encompassing conditions like minimal change disease, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, membranous nephropathy, lupus nephritis, diabetic nephropathy, infections, genetic disorders, specific medications, and more. Prolonged nephrotic syndrome can result in complications such as infections, malnutrition, and an elevated risk of cardiovascular disease. Consequently, accurately pinpointing the precise cause is imperative for effective treatment and comprehensive management.
From a pathological standpoint, nephrotic syndrome entails changes in the structure and function of the glomeruli, which are the small filtration units in the kidneys tasked with eliminating waste and surplus fluids from the blood. The key characteristics of nephrotic syndrome involve heightened permeability of the glomerular filtration barrier, leading to the excretion of proteins, notably albumin, in the urine.
Nephrotic Syndrome Diagnosis
The diagnostic process for nephrotic syndrome encompasses a clinical assessment, blood examinations to evaluate serum albumin and lipid concentrations, urine analyses to detect proteinuria and imaging modalities such as ultrasound. Additionally, a kidney biopsy may be undertaken to pinpoint the root cause, aiding in informed treatment choices. This comprehensive approach ensures a thorough understanding of the condition's nuances, facilitating precise diagnosis and tailored interventions.
Nephrotic Syndrome Treatment
The treatment of nephrotic syndrome involves addressing the fundamental cause and implementing measures to mitigate elevated blood pressure, elevated cholesterol levels, edema, and infection susceptibility. Therapeutic interventions typically comprise medications and dietary modifications. Certain antihypertensive drugs, specifically ACE inhibitors and ARBs, exhibit the potential to decelerate kidney diseases associated with nephrotic syndrome.
As the market is derived using the patient-based model, the Nephrotic Syndrome epidemiology chapter in the report provides historical as well as forecasted epidemiology segmented by Total Diagnosed Prevalent Cases of Nephrotic Syndrome and Type-specific Diagnosed Prevalent Cases of Nephrotic Syndrome, in the 7MM covering the United States, EU4 countries (Germany, France, Italy, and Spain) and the United Kingdom, and Japan, from 2020 to 2034.
As per DelveInsight's estimations, the total diagnosed prevalent cases of Nephrotic Syndrome in the 7MM were approximately 786 thousand in 2022 and are projected to increase during the forecast period.
The drug chapter segment of the Nephrotic Syndrome report encloses a detailed analysis of Nephrotic Syndrome marketed drugs and late-stage (Phase III and Phase II) pipeline drugs. It also understands Nephrotic Syndrome clinical trial details, expressive pharmacological action, agreements and collaborations, approval, and patent details, advantages and disadvantages of each included drug, and the latest news and press releases.
Emerging Drugs
Atacicept: Vera Therapeutics
Atacicept developed by Vera Therapeutics, is an investigational recombinant fusion protein that contains the soluble transmembrane activator and calcium-modulating cyclophilin ligand interactor (TACI) receptor that binds to the cytokines B lymphocyte stimulator (BLyS) and a proliferation-inducing ligand (APRIL). These cytokines are members of the tumor necrosis factor family that promote B-cell survival and autoantibody production associated with certain autoimmune diseases, including IgA nephropathy and lupus nephritis.
Atrasentan: Chinook Therapeutics/ Novartis
Atrasentan is an oral potent and selective endothelin A (ETA) receptor antagonist, which works by inhibiting the ETA receptor activation of multiple renal cell types. This blockade reduces kidney inflammation and fibrosis, thus leading to reduced proteinuria in patients with chronic kidney disease.
Note: Detailed emerging therapies assessment will be provided in the final report of Nephrotic Syndrome.
Nephrotic syndrome is a collection of symptoms that signal impaired kidney function. These symptoms encompass proteinuria, hypoalbuminemia, edema, hyperlipidemia, and various other associated complications.
The management of nephrotic syndrome entails addressing underlying medical conditions contributing to its onset. Healthcare professionals may prescribe medications and dietary modifications to regulate symptoms and address complications associated with nephrotic syndrome. Currently, there are no authorized therapies specifically designed for treating nephrotic syndrome, and the predominant treatment strategies often involve off-label approaches. Corticosteroids like prednisone, cyclophosphamide, and cyclosporine are employed to induce remission in nephrotic syndrome. Diuretics are utilized to alleviate edema, while angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and angiotensin II receptor blockers are employed to diminish proteinuria.
Progress in the treatment of nephrotic syndrome has transformed patient care, integrating lifestyle modifications, medications, and procedures. Emerging therapies, including monoclonal antibodies and antagonists targeting APRIL and BAFF, among others, hold the potential for improving patient outcomes. Continuous research and ongoing clinical trials are shaping a promising future for nephrotic syndrome treatment, providing optimism for a world with decreased morbidity and mortality.
The market for Nephrotic Syndrome is expected to experience positive growth with the approval of potential drugs like Atacicept, Atrasentan, Gazyva/Gazyvaro (obinutuzumab), Zigakibart (BION-1301), and others.
This section focuses on the uptake rate of potential drugs expected to launch in the market during 2020-2034. For example, Atacicept in the US is expected to be launched by 2027.

Qualitative Analysis
We perform Qualitative and market Intelligence analysis using various approaches, such as SWOT and Conjoint Analysis. In the SWOT analysis, strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats in terms of disease diagnosis, patient awareness, patient burden, competitive landscape, cost-effectiveness, and geographical accessibility of therapies are provided. These pointers are based on the Analyst's discretion and assessment of the patient burden, cost analysis, and existing and evolving treatment landscape.
Conjoint Analysis analyzes multiple approved and emerging therapies based on relevant attributes such as safety, efficacy, frequency of administration, route of administration, and order of entry. Scoring is given based on these parameters to analyze the effectiveness of therapy.
Further, the therapies' safety is evaluated wherein the acceptability, tolerability, and adverse events are majorly observed, and it sets a clear understanding of the side effects posed by the drug in the trials. In addition, the scoring is also based on the route of administration, order of entry and designation, probability of success, and the addressable patient pool for each therapy. According to these parameters, the final weightage score and the ranking of the emerging therapies are decided.
Market Access and Reimbursement
The high cost of therapies for the treatment is a major factor restraining the growth of the global drug market. Because of the high cost, the economic burden is increasing, leading the patient to escape from proper treatment.
