Atopic Dermatitis Global Market Report 2024

The global atopic dermatitis market has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $7.51 billion in 2023 to $8.7 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.9%. The observed growth in the historic period can be attributed to factors such as increased medical understanding and awareness of atopic dermatitis, changes in incidence and prevalence rates, the presence of patient advocacy and support, the evolution of treatment options, and ongoing research and development in the field.

The global atopic dermatitis market is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $15.27 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.1%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to advancements in biologic therapies, the development of immunomodulators and small molecule drugs, the emergence of pediatric-specific treatments, innovations in gene therapy and precision medicine, and the integration of digital health solutions. Major trends expected in the forecast period include technological advancements in topical treatments, a focus on pediatric care, increased emphasis on environmental and allergen management, and the use of precision diagnosis tools.

The atopic dermatitis market is poised for significant growth due to the high prevalence of this condition, commonly known as eczema. Atopic dermatitis is characterized by skin dryness and itching, necessitating increased attention for diagnosis and treatment. For instance, the National Eczema Association reported that in 2021, approximately 31.6 million people in the US, constituting around 10% of the population, were affected by eczema, with 9.6 million being children under 18. This emphasizes the urgency for effective measures in managing atopic dermatitis, especially since 80% of those affected experience symptoms before the age of 6. Consequently, the rising prevalence of atopic dermatitis continues to drive growth within the atopic dermatitis market.

The growing demand for personalized medicine is anticipated to contribute significantly to the expansion of the atopic dermatitis market. Personalized medicine involves tailoring medical interventions, including drug therapies, to suit individual patient characteristics, such as genetics and molecular factors. This approach ensures more targeted and effective treatments while minimizing adverse effects. For example, as of October 2022, reports indicated a vast array of over 75,000 genetic testing products and 300 personalized medicines, underlining the surging demand for tailored therapeutic options. This trend is fueling the growth of the atopic dermatitis market by emphasizing more precise and patient-centric treatment approaches.

Innovations in product development are emerging as a pivotal trend within the atopic dermatitis market, with major companies introducing novel solutions to reinforce their market position. Notably, in June 2022, Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Inc., a prominent US-based biotechnology company, secured FDA approval for Dupixent (dupilumab). Dupixent is a medication designed for children aged 6 months to 5 years with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis. This groundbreaking drug works by inhibiting the signaling of two critical Type 2 inflammatory sources (IL-4 and IL-13), contributing to the development of various conditions such as eosinophilic esophagitis, prurigo nodularis, chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis, and asthma. The approval of Dupixent represents a significant advancement in pediatric atopic dermatitis treatment, promising more effective therapeutic options for young patients.

Major companies within the atopic dermatitis market are strategically pursuing product approvals to stimulate revenue growth within their industry. Product approvals signify the official endorsement granted by health regulatory bodies, affirming the safety and effectiveness of pharmaceuticals or treatments for managing inflammatory skin conditions like atopic dermatitis. Notably, in January 2022, AbbVie Inc., a prominent US-based pharmaceutical company, secured FDA approval for Rinvoq. Rinvoq, containing upadacitinib as its active component, belongs to the class of janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors, a targeted synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drug. This medication received approval for treating moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis in both adults and children aged 12 years and above. Rinvoq serves as an alternative when other treatments, including biologic medicines or conventional medications, have been ineffective in managing the condition, or when their usage is not recommended. It is noteworthy that Rinvoq (upadacitinib) can be administered in conjunction with methotrexate or as monotherapy, thereby broadening treatment options for atopic dermatitis patients.

In September 2022, Arcutis Biotherapeutics, a prominent commercial-stage biopharmaceuticals firm headquartered in the United States, finalized the acquisition of Ducentis BioTherapeutics for an undisclosed sum. This strategic acquisition is envisioned to reinforce Arcutis Biotherapeutics' position within the medical dermatology sector while enhancing its capacity to address the unmet medical needs of patients dealing with dermatological conditions. Notably, Ducentis BioTherapeutics, a preclinical-stage biotechnology company also based in the US, specializes in the development of primary treatments targeting atopic dermatitis, aligning with Arcutis Biotherapeutics' commitment to advancing therapies for this skin disorder.
