Complement Inhibitors Global Market Report 2025

The complement inhibitors market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $16.41 billion in 2024 to $21.43 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 30.6%. The growth during the historic period can be attributed to the increasing prevalence of complement-mediated diseases, rising awareness of rare diseases, the emergence of biologics as effective therapies, growing healthcare expenditure, a stronger focus on personalized medicine, the availability of orphan drug incentives, regulatory support for rare disease treatments, and enhanced collaborations between pharmaceutical companies and research institutions.

The complement inhibitors market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $61.74 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 39.3%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the rising incidence of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases, expansion of the biologics and biosimilars markets, an increasing number of clinical trials, the development of longer-acting complement inhibitors, improved healthcare infrastructure in emerging markets, greater adoption of targeted therapies, a growing geriatric population, and enhanced patient access to biologic treatments. Key trends expected during this period include the integration of artificial intelligence in drug discovery, advanced biomarker identification techniques, machine learning for predicting patient responses, long-acting drug formulations, next-generation sequencing for complement system analysis, high-throughput screening platforms, organ-on-a-chip models for complement inhibition testing, 3D bioprinting for complement inhibitor development, and real-time monitoring tools for assessing treatment efficacy.

The increasing focus on personalized medicine is expected to drive the growth of the complement inhibitors market in the coming years. Personalized medicine involves tailoring treatments to individual patients based on their genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors to optimize outcomes and improve care. The rising adoption of personalized medicine is fueled by advancements in genomics, the growing availability of biomarker-based diagnostics, improved data analytics technologies, and a growing demand for more targeted and effective therapies. Complement inhibitors align with personalized medicine by targeting specific components of the complement system based on a patient's unique disease profile, genetic makeup, and complement activity levels. For instance, in February 2024, the Personalized Medicine Coalition (PMC), a US-based nonprofit organization, reported that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved 26 new personalized medicines in 2023, a notable increase from 12 approvals in 2022. As a result, the expanding focus on personalized medicine is fueling the growth of the complement inhibitors market.

Leading companies in the complement inhibitors market are increasingly developing monoclonal antibodies to effectively regulate the complement system in various autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. Monoclonal antibodies are lab-engineered proteins designed to specifically target and bind to antigens, aiding in the treatment of conditions such as cancer, autoimmune disorders, and infections. For example, in August 2024, F. Hoffmann-La Roche AG, a Switzerland-based pharmaceutical company, received approval from the European Commission for PiaSky (crovalimab), a monoclonal antibody designed for adults and adolescents with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) who are either new to or previously treated with C5 inhibitors. PiaSky (crovalimab) targets complement protein C5 to prevent its cleavage, thereby inhibiting the formation of the membrane attack complex (MAC) and reducing terminal complement-mediated intravascular hemolysis. This mechanism helps improve hemoglobin levels, decrease the need for blood transfusions, and alleviate symptoms such as fatigue and anemia, ultimately enhancing patients' quality of life.

In September 2023, Magenta Therapeutics Inc., a US-based clinical-stage biotechnology company, merged with Dianthus Therapeutics Inc. for an undisclosed amount. This merger enables the combined company to focus on advancing Dianthus’ pipeline of next-generation complement inhibitors, including DNTH103, which is currently in a Phase I clinical trial. Dianthus Therapeutics Inc. is a US-based clinical-stage biotechnology company specializing in developing next-generation antibody complement therapeutics for severe autoimmune diseases.

Complement inhibitors are therapeutic agents designed to regulate or block the complement system, a crucial part of the immune response involved in inflammation, pathogen elimination, and cell lysis. These inhibitors target specific complement components, such as complement component 3 (C3) or complement component 5 (C5), to prevent overactivation and reduce tissue damage in conditions such as paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) and atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS).

The key product types in the complement inhibitors market include complement component 3 (C3) inhibitors, complement component 5 (C5) inhibitors, and complement factor D inhibitors. C3 inhibitors are therapeutic agents that block the activation of C3, a central protein in the complement cascade. The mechanisms of action for complement inhibitors involve alternative pathway inhibitors, classical pathway inhibitors, and lectin pathway inhibitors. These therapies are used to treat conditions such as aHUS, generalized myasthenia gravis (GMG), and PNH. Administration routes include intravenous (IV) and subcutaneous (SC) methods, serving a broad patient demographic, including adults, geriatrics, and pediatrics.
