Description

Key Highlights
  • Calcinosis cutis is a disorder characterized by abnormal deposition of calcium salts in the skin and subcutaneous tissue. It presents as firm, whitish or yellowish papules, nodules, or plaques, and can vary in severity from minor, symptomless bumps to painful, ulcerated, and function-limiting lesions.
  • Calcinosis cutis includes dystrophic, metastatic, iatrogenic, idiopathic, and calciphylaxis types, distinguished by cause ranging from tissue damage and metabolic imbalance to medical interventions or unknown origins with calciphylaxis being the most severe, involving vascular calcification and necrosis in renal disease.
  • The most common subtype is dystrophic calcinosis cutis, comprising around 70% of cases, mostly linked to autoimmune connective tissue diseases, trauma, or neoplasm.
  • Most autoimmune diseases associated with calcinosis (e.g., systemic sclerosis, lupus, dermatomyositis) are significantly more common in female, leading to higher calcinosis cutis rates in females.
  • There are currently no FDA-approved drugs specifically indicated for the treatment of calcinosis cutis. Treatments are usually tailored to the patient based on the underlying cause and disease severity.
  • In 2024, the United States accounts for the largest market size of calcinosis cutis, in comparison to EU4 (Germany, Spain, Italy, France), the United Kingdom, and Japan
  • The calcinosis cutis drug pipeline is limited, with INZ-701 from Inozyme Pharma emerging as a leading investigational therapy, having completed its Phase I clinical trial.
  • In July 2025, BioMarin completed its acquisition of Inozyme Pharma for USD 4.00 per share in an all-cash deal valued at approximately USD 270 million. The acquisition expanded BioMarin’s enzyme therapy portfolio with INZ-701, developing for 3 rare and progressive genetic disease affecting blood vessels, soft tissue, and bone.

Calcinosis Cutis Overview

Calcinosis cutis is the abnormal deposition of calcium salts in the skin and subcutaneous tissue. It is classified into dystrophic, metastatic, iatrogenic, idiopathic, and calciphylaxis types, based on the underlying cause. Dystrophic calcinosis, the most common form, occurs in damaged tissue with normal calcium and phosphate levels and is associated with autoimmune diseases like systemic sclerosis, dermatomyositis, and lupus, as well as trauma, chronic inflammation, or tumors. Metastatic calcinosis results from elevated serum calcium or phosphate, often due to chronic kidney disease, hyperparathyroidism, hypervitaminosis D, or malignancy. Iatrogenic calcinosis arises from medical interventions such as calcium-containing infusions or repeated injections. In idiopathic cases, no clear cause is identified, as seen in conditions like scrotal calcinosis or subepidermal calcified nodules. The most severe form, calciphylaxis, occurs in end-stage renal disease and involves vascular calcification leading to painful skin necrosis.

Calcinosis Cutis Diagnosis and Treatment Algorithm

Diagnosis is based on clinical examination, imaging (X-ray, ultrasound, or CT), and skin biopsy confirming calcium deposits. Blood tests assess calcium, phosphate, parathyroid hormone, and renal function to determine the type and underlying cause. Differentiation from other calcifying skin conditions or infections is essential for proper management.

Treatment targets the underlying cause and severity. Options include managing autoimmune or metabolic disorders, using medications like diltiazem, bisphosphonates, or sodium thiosulfate (especially in calciphylaxis). Surgical excision may be considered for symptomatic or infected lesions. Supportive care with wound management and pain control is crucial, particularly in severe or ulcerated cases.

Calcinosis Cutis Epidemiology

The epidemiology section of the calcinosis cutis market report offers information on the patient populations, including historical and projected trends for each of the seven major markets.

This section also presents the data with relevant tables and graphs, offering a clear and concise view of the prevalence of calcinosis cutis. Additionally, the report discloses the assumptions made during the analysis, ensuring data interpretation and presentation transparency. This epidemiological data is valuable for understanding the disease burden and its impact on the patient population across various regions.
  • As per secondary research, Dystrophic, idiopathic, metastatic subtype, and calciphylaxis occurred in 70.6%, 11.8%, 5.9%, and 11.8% of the cases, respectively.
  • According to secondary sources, calcinosis cutis was found to occur in approximately 6.67% of patients with connective tissue diseases, with systemic sclerosis identified as the most commonly associated condition.
  • The epidemiology of calcinosis cutis is expected to change during the forecast period (2025-2034).
Calcinosis Cutis Market Outlook

The calcinosis cutis therapeutics market is projected to grow steadily during the forecast period (2025–2034), driven by the rising prevalence of autoimmune and renal disorders, improved diagnostic awareness, emerging treatment options, and significant unmet clinical needs due to the lack of therapies.
  • With no approved treatments currently available, calcinosis cutis management remains focused on symptomatic relief and addressing underlying conditions.
  • The shift toward integrated care involving dermatologists, nephrologists, and rheumatologists enhances long-term treatment uptake and patient outcomes.
  • Advances in understanding disease subtypes and molecular mechanisms are enabling the development of targeted therapies, paving the way for personalized, patient-specific treatment approaches and improved clinical outcomes.
Calcinosis Cutis Drug Chapters

Emerging calcinosis cutis Drugs

The calcinosis cutis market is expected to evolve gradually, driven by the limited number of emerging therapies currently in development. Key players such as INZ-701 by Inozyme Pharma, among others are showing active commitment to addressing this unmet need, with ongoing efforts to advance novel treatment options for this complex condition.

INZ-701: Inozyme Pharma

INZ-701 is an ENPP1 enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) given as an injection under the skin (subcutaneous injection) that is designed to increase PPi and adenosine in the body to help improve or prevent symptoms of calciphylaxis.

In October 2024, Inozyme announced positive interim results from its Phase I SEAPORT 1 trial of INZ-701 in patients with ESKD on hemodialysis. INZ-701 significantly increased PPi levels and was well tolerated, low PPi levels are associated with calciphylaxis. Company plans to initiate a registrational trial in calciphylaxis in 2025 subject to regulatory alignment and sufficient funding.
