This market research report analyzes the leading players in the global metabolic disorders therapeutics market such as Novo Nordisk, Sanofi, Merck, AstraZeneca, and Eli Lily. This report also presents a detailed segmentation of the market by type of disease (diabetes drugs, obesity drugs, lysosomal storage disease drugs, and hypercholesterolemia drugs) and by geography (the Americas, APAC, and EMEA).
Global metabolic disorders therapeutics market forecast
Extensive research carried out by the market research analysts at Technavio has shown that the global metabolic disorders therapeutics market will grow steadily and will post a moderate CAGR of close to 5% over the forecast period. The introduction of patient assistance programs for the treatment of various metabolic disorders is one of the primary factors driving this market’s growth. The leading vendors in the market are providing co-pay assistance to individuals who are purchasing the indicated medications for diabetes, hypercholesterolemia, obesity, and lysosomal storage diseases. Besides this, many organizations such as the National Gaucher Foundation of Canada, National Gaucher Foundation, and the National Organization for Rare Disorders are also involved in providing financial support to patients to continue with the therapy for rare diseases. Since such assistance programs are mostly provided by drug suppliers, patients show more inclination toward buying branded therapeutics, contributing to the metabolic disorders therapeutics market size in the coming years.
One of the upcoming trends gaining traction in the market is the increasing focus on oral insulin therapies. Till now, insulin injections were mostly administered through subcutaneous tissues, but this route of application is associated with risk of infection and hypersensitivity reactions, emboli, high cost, and injection site pain. Also, several needle-phobic individuals hesitate to adopt this route of administration. This paved the way for extensive research in the development of oral insulin. The oral form of insulin prevents the unpleasantness of insulin injections and other complications associated with the existing therapies. Moreover, oral administration of insulin ensures increased patient comfort and compliance, reduced risk of infection, simpler application, and is cost-effective.

Segmentation by type of disease and analysis of the metabolic disorders therapeutics market
- Diabetes
- Obesity
- Hypercholesterolemia
- Lysosomal storage diseases
According to this industry research report, the diabetes drugs segment was the leading segment and accounted for close to 64% of the revenue market shares. Depending on the cause, diabetes is essential of three types – type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, and gestational diabetes. The increasing diabetic population globally is one of the significant factors propelling this market segment’s growth. According to various research studies, it is reported that at present nearly 415 million people are affected by diabetes globally, and this number is expected to increase to over 640 million by 2040.
Geographical segmentation and analysis of the metabolic disorders therapeutics market
In terms of geography, the Americas was the highest revenue contributor in the global metabolic disorders therapeutics market and is likely to reach over USD 46 billion by 2020. The US is the largest revenue contributor in the region. The prevalence of diabetes is increasing at an alarming rate in the US, and various research studies have indicated that nearly half of the adult population in the country has diabetes, or they are at an elevated risk of developing diabetes. Moreover, the implementation of healthcare reforms such as the Affordable Care Act (ACA) is rapidly changing the business environment for pharmaceuticals. Healthcare reforms help reduce the cost of pharmaceutical drugs, offer increased access to healthcare, and improve the quality of healthcare. These healthcare reforms are anticipated to have a positive impact on the region’s market over the next four years.
