Age-Related Macular Degeneration: Seven-Market Drug Forecast and Market Analysis

Summary

The table below presents the key metrics for age-related macular degeneration (AMD) in the seven major pharmaceutical markets (7MM) covered in this report-the US, 5EU (France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the UK), and Japan-during the forecast period from 2024-34.

In 2024, GlobalData estimated the total AMD market to be valued at $7.8 billion across the 7MM, with the US accounting for 67.2% of the market. The five major European markets (5EU) (France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and UK) accounted for 28.9% of the global AMD market with an estimated value of $2.2 billion, and Japan’s AMD market was estimated to be $298.0 million in 2024, accounting for 3.8% of the market.

Over the forecast period, the AMD market is anticipated to grow to a value of $20.5 billion in 2034, with the US anticipated to account for 65.7% of the global market and a market value of $13.5 billion. The US market is anticipated grow at a CAGR of 10.0%, while the 5EU market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 10.9% to reach a market value of $6.3 billion in 2034. Japan is anticipated to witness the slowest growth among the 7MM with a CAGR of 8.9% during the forecast period and a market value of $702.1 billion in 2034.

Major drivers of growth in the AMD market during the forecast period include the following -
  • The launches of longer-acting anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapies to treat patients with wet AMD (wAMD) and tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapies
  • The availability of therapies for geographic atrophy (GA), which will increase the number of treatable cases of AMD
  • The launch of the first pharmacotherapy exclusively for early AMD, which will increase treatment options available for many patients with this sub-indication
    • Major barriers to growth in the AMD market during the forecast period will include the following:
  • Increased pressure to provide evidence of drug cost-effectiveness in the 7MM, which could complicate the reimbursement process of late-stage pipeline agents
  • The high annual cost of therapy (ACOT) of cell and gene therapies that are anticipated to launch within the forecast period and may cause payers to favor cheaper alternatives
  • Products that are due to lose exclusivity within the forecast period, and the subsequent launch of biosimilars
Scope
  • Overview of AMD, including epidemiology, symptoms, diagnosis, and disease management.
  • Annualized AMD therapeutics market revenue, cost of therapy per patient, and treatment usage patterns forecast from 2024 to 2034.
  • Key topics covered include strategic competitor assessment, market characterization, unmet needs, clinical trial mapping, and implications of these factors for the AMD therapeutics market.
  • Pipeline analysis: comprehensive data assessing emerging trends and mechanisms of action under development for AMD treatment. The most promising candidates in late-stage development are profiled.
  • Analysis of the current and future market competition in the global AMD therapeutics market. Insightful review of the key industry drivers, restraints and challenges. Each trend is independently researched to provide qualitative analysis of its implications.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
