The actemra (tocilizumab) market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $9.34 million in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.3%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing autoimmune disease burden, expansion into new inflammatory indications, growth of biologic infusion centers, improved early diagnosis rates, rising biologic therapy access. Major trends in the forecast period include expanded use in autoimmune and inflammatory disorders, growing adoption in cytokine release syndrome management, increased hospital based biologic administration, rising focus on early il 6 targeted intervention, enhanced long term safety monitoring of biologics.
The increasing prevalence of rheumatoid arthritis is expected to drive the growth of the Actemra (tocilizumab) market in the coming years. Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic autoimmune disorder characterized by persistent joint inflammation, progressive joint damage, and a reduced quality of life, affecting millions of people worldwide. The condition is influenced by several factors, including smoking, obesity, environmental exposures, and hormonal influences. Actemra (tocilizumab) is widely used in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis to reduce inflammation and prevent joint damage by blocking the interleukin-6 (IL-6) receptor, particularly in patients who do not respond adequately to other therapies. For example, in April 2024, according to data published by the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR), a UK-based government agency, around 700,000 people in the United Kingdom were living with rheumatoid arthritis. In addition, in June 2024, the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare reported that approximately 514,000 people, or 2% of the population, were living with rheumatoid arthritis in Australia in 2022. In 2023, the disease accounted for 2% of the total disease burden and 16% of the burden related to musculoskeletal conditions. Rheumatoid arthritis was also associated with 1,322 deaths in 2022, corresponding to 5.1 deaths per 100,000 people and representing 0.7% of all deaths. As a result, the rising burden of rheumatoid arthritis is contributing to the growth of the Actemra (tocilizumab) market.
Major companies operating in the Actemra (tocilizumab) market are increasingly focusing on the development of advanced solutions, such as tocilizumab biosimilars, to strengthen their competitive position. Tocilizumab biosimilars are approved for the treatment of autoimmune diseases as well as COVID-19, offering cost-effective alternatives to the originator drug Actemra. For instance, in November 2023, Fresenius Kabi, a Germany-based healthcare company, launched Tyenne, the first tocilizumab biosimilar referencing RoActemra (tocilizumab) in the European Union. Tyenne is approved for the treatment of several inflammatory and immune-mediated conditions, including rheumatoid arthritis, giant cell arteritis, polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis, systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis, cytokine release syndrome, and COVID-19.
In September 2024, Bio-Thera Solutions Ltd., a China-based biopharmaceutical company, partnered with Biogen Inc. to publish Phase 3 clinical trial data for TOFIDENCE (BAT1806/BIIB800), an approved biosimilar to Actemra/RoActemra (tocilizumab). Marketed as TOFIDENCE, this biosimilar is intended to improve treatment accessibility for patients with autoimmune disorders. Biogen Inc. is a US-based biotechnology company specializing in therapies for neurological and autoimmune diseases.
Major companies operating in the actemra (tocilizumab) market are Roche Holding AG, Fresenius Kabi.
