Epidermolysis Bullosa Market Report 2025

The epidermolysis bullosa market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $3.22 billion in 2024 to $3.46 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.6%. The growth during the historic period can be attributed to the rise in clinical trials, the increasing prevalence of epidermolysis bullosa, greater awareness, and a surge in research funding. Additionally, there has been an increasing focus on gene therapy and the treatment of rare diseases.

The epidermolysis bullosa market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.59 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.3%. The growth during the forecast period can be attributed to the rising adoption of regenerative medicine and stem cell therapy, increased awareness and diagnosis rates, growing approvals of gene and cell therapies, expanding wound care, and a rise in diagnosed cases. Key trends during this period include novel therapies, stem cell treatments, gene editing technology, targeted therapies, strategic collaborations, and advancements in genetic research.

The growth of the epidermolysis bullosa market is expected to be driven by the increasing activities in research and development. These activities involve systematic efforts to innovate, improve, or create new products, processes, or technologies. The rise in research and development can be attributed to the growing demand for innovative treatments, advanced therapies, and precision medicine to tackle complex diseases. As a result, these efforts are leading to the discovery of novel therapies, advanced wound care solutions, and potential gene and cell-based treatments that improve diagnosis, management, and the overall quality of life for those with epidermolysis bullosa. For example, in April 2024, the Office for National Statistics in the UK reported that the government's research and development spending (excluding EU contributions) rose by 10.5% to approximately $19.2 billion in 2022, up from $17.3 billion in 2021. Consequently, the rising emphasis on research and development is contributing to the market’s growth.

Companies in the epidermolysis bullosa market are increasingly focusing on innovations such as redosable gene therapy, which aims to improve long-term efficacy and patient outcomes. Unlike traditional one-time gene therapies, redosable gene therapy can be administered multiple times to maintain or enhance its therapeutic effects. For instance, in May 2023, Krystal Biotech Inc., a U.S.-based biotechnology firm, announced that the FDA had approved VYJUVEK, a redosable gene therapy for treating dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (DEB) in patients aged six months and older. VYJUVEK delivers a functional copy of the COL7A1 gene to address the underlying genetic defect of DEB. This topical therapy provides a less invasive and more convenient alternative to traditional treatments, improving patient care and accessibility.

In August 2023, Paradigm Therapeutics Inc., a U.S.-based biopharmaceutical company, acquired the global rights to SD-101 from Amicus Therapeutics for an undisclosed amount. Through this acquisition, Paradigm Therapeutics aims to further the development of this breakthrough therapy, which is designed to treat all subtypes of epidermolysis bullosa. This move is intended to accelerate the potential of SD-101 as a groundbreaking treatment solution for patients with the condition. Amicus Therapeutics, known for its focus on gene therapies, wound care, and innovative drugs for epidermolysis bullosa, was instrumental in developing this therapeutic approach.

Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) refers to a group of rare genetic disorders that result in extremely fragile skin, causing blistering and wounds from even minor friction or trauma. These conditions are important for studying genetic skin diseases, advancing wound care treatments, and developing innovative gene and cell therapies to improve patient outcomes.

The main product types for epidermolysis bullosa include antibiotics, analgesics, and other treatments. Antibiotics are medications used to treat bacterial infections by either killing bacteria or inhibiting their growth. These medications are administered through various methods, including injectables, oral treatments, and others. They are used by various end users, such as hospitals, home care providers, specialty clinics, and more.
