The global Pruritus Therapeutics market size is expected to reach USD 13.2 Billion by 2032, according to a new study by Polaris Market Research. The report "Pruritus Therapeutics Market Share, Size, Trends, Industry Analysis Report, By Disease Type (Allergic Contact Dermatitis, Atopic Dermatitis, Urticaria, Others); By Product; By Region; Segment Forecast, 2024 - 2032" gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.
The market for treating pruritus is seeing significant growth as a result of the increasing prevalence of chronic itching linked to various skin and systemic conditions. The growing awareness of pruritus's substantial impact on patient's quality of life is boosting the demand for effective treatment options. Advances in pharmaceuticals, particularly the creation of new biologics and targeted therapies, are broadening the range of treatments available for pruritus, leading to better patient outcomes. Additionally, the aging global population, which is more prone to conditions causing persistent itching, is further propelling market growth.
Key trends in the market include the development and use of biological drugs and immunomodulators that specifically target the molecular mechanisms underlying pruritus. The incorporation of advanced drug delivery systems to improve the effectiveness and adherence of topical treatments is also gaining momentum.
The rising incidence of dermatological disorders is a key driver for the pruritus therapeutics market. These conditions often manifest as chronic itching, significantly impacting patients' quality of life. Factors such as urbanization, pollution, and lifestyle changes contribute to the increasing global prevalence of skin diseases like eczema, psoriasis, and atopic dermatitis, resulting in compromised skin barriers and immune system changes. Furthermore, intense competition among major pharmaceutical companies and emerging biotech firms characterize the competitive landscape of the pruritus therapeutics market. These industry leaders are leveraging advanced biologics, immunomodulators, and targeted therapies to develop innovative treatments that address the root causes of pruritus.
The global market for pruritus therapeutics in 2023 was primarily driven by the atopic dermatitis segment, owing to the condition's high prevalence and chronicity. This condition is often characterized by severe and persistent itching as a primary symptom.
The corticosteroids segment had the highest revenue share in the pruritus therapeutics market in 2023. This was primarily due to their extensive utilization and established effectiveness in treating various inflammatory skin conditions that result in pruritus.
In 2023, North America established itself as the leading region in the global market due to its high prevalence of dermatological conditions like atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, and eczema. These conditions have significantly boosted the demand for pruritus treatments in the region.
The global key market players include AbbVie Inc., Amgen Inc., Astellas Pharma Inc., Bristol Myers Squibb, Cara Therapeutics, GSK plc, Novartis AG, Pfizer Inc., Sanofi, Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd., Viatris Inc., among others.
