PLASMA FRACTIONATION MARKET TRENDS:

Rising Geriatric Population

As people age, they are more prone to various health conditions, such as immune deficiencies, neurological disorders, and chronic diseases, thereby propelling the need for plasma products. For instance, according to an article published by the World Health Organization (WHO), by 2030, one in every six persons in the world will be 60 or older. Moreover, the global population of individuals aged 60 and above will be approximately 2.1 billion by 2050. Besides this, as per the National Library of Medicine, about 21% of the elderly in India suffer from at least one chronic condition. Hypertension and diabetes are responsible for approximately 68% of all chronic illnesses. Plasma products derived from fractionation are essential for treating many of these conditions effectively. These therapies play a crucial role in managing symptoms and improving the quality of life in these cases. These factors are contributing to the plasma fractionation market share.

Prevalence of Rare Chronic Diseases

The rising prevalence of rare chronic diseases is significantly driving the growth of the market. For instance, according to an article published by the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) in December 2022, more than 30 million people suffer from more than 7,000 rare diseases in the U.S. Moreover, many rare chronic diseases require specialized treatments, including therapies derived from plasma fractionation. These treatments are essential for managing symptoms, improving quality of life and providing life-saving interventions. For instance, according to an article published by Invest India, there are many therapeutic applications for plasma fractionation, such as the treatment of congenital or immunological deficiency diseases, trauma blood volume restoration, and the very efficient inactivation of viral contaminants like HIV and hepatitis viruses. Besides this, regulatory approvals for new plasma-derived products and expanding indications also stimulate market growth, allowing more patients access to these treatments. For example, in June 2024, Takeda announced that the Ministry of Health, Labour, and Welfare in Japan approved the use of CUVITRU as replacement therapy for patients aged two years and older with agammaglobulinemia or hypogammaglobulinemia disorders characterized by extremely low or absent antibody levels and an increased risk of serious recurring infection caused by primary immunodeficiency (PID) or secondary immunodeficiency (SID).

Advancements in Purification Techniques

Advancements in purification techniques have significantly enhanced the quality, safety, and efficiency of plasma-derived products. One of the most critical advancements is in the methods of viral inactivation and removal. Techniques, such as solvent/detergent treatment, pasteurization, and nanofiltration, have been refined to effectively eliminate viruses while preserving therapeutic proteins in plasma products. This ensures higher safety standards and reduces the risk of viral transmission. For instance, according to an article published by the National Library of Medicine, therapeutic plasma proteins, including human albumin, coagulation factors, immunoglobulins, and enzyme inhibitors, are pasteurized at 60°C for 10 hours to kill blood-borne viruses of concern. Moreover, modern chromatographic techniques, including affinity chromatography and ion exchange chromatography, have improved the purification process by allowing for more precise separation of plasma proteins based on their specific characteristics. This results in higher purity and yield of therapeutic proteins like immunoglobulins, albumin, and clotting factors. For instance, in November 2023, Cytiva, one of the life science companies headquartered in the United States, launched the Cytiva Protein Select technology, which streamlines and accelerates recombinant protein purification. The self-cleaving traceless tag and complementary affinity chromatography resin standardize purification for any protein, thereby eliminating the need for protein-specific affinity binding partners.

Immunoglobulins, also known as antibodies, play a dominant role in plasma fractionation due to their widespread therapeutic applications and high demand. Immunoglobulins are used to treat various medical conditions, including primary and secondary immunodeficiencies, autoimmune diseases, inflammatory disorders, and neurological diseases. They are essential for boosting immune function and managing symptoms in patients with these conditions. For instance, in September 2022, Grifols, one of the plasma medicines providers, signed a long-term agreement with Canada's national blood authority to increase the country's self-sufficiency in immunoglobulin significantly (Ig) medicines that are used to treat a variety of immunodeficiencies and other medical conditions.

Breakup by Sector:
