The Rheumatoid Arthritis market was valued at approximately USD 27 Billion in 2023 and is expected to grow at a strong CAGR of around 5% during the forecast period (2024-2032) owing to the rising cases of RA.
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disorder that primarily affects the joints, causing inflammation, pain, and potential joint damage. Unlike osteoarthritis, which results from wear and tear, RA occurs when the immune system mistakenly attacks the synovium—the lining of the membranes that surround the joints. This leads to inflammation that can eventually result in bone erosion and joint deformity. Increasing cases of Rheumatoid arthritis is one of the major drivers for the market. For instance, as per the data of census.gov, RA affects about 1% of the global population, with a higher prevalence in women than men. The disease can occur at any age, but it most commonly begins between the ages of 30 and 60.
This section discusses the key market trends that are influencing the various segments of the Rheumatoid Arthritis Market as identified by our team of research experts.
Biologic drugs have revolutionized RA treatment by targeting specific components of the immune system. These include tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors, interleukin inhibitors, and B-cell inhibitors. With the patent expiration of many biologics, biosimilar drugs—highly similar, less expensive versions of biologics—are becoming more prevalent, improving accessibility and reducing treatment costs.
The Rheumatoid Arthritis market in North America has experienced significant growth in recent years, driven by various factors. North America, particularly the U.S., represents one of the largest markets for Rheumatoid Arthritis globally. One of the primary drivers of the Rheumatoid Arthritis market in North America is the high demand for advanced therapeutics, increasing cases of rheumatoid arthritis, and the rising elderly population. For instance, as of 2022, 16.9% of the U.S. population is aged 65 or older, and this percentage is expected to grow as the Baby Boomer generation ages according to the data of Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). This demographic shift contributes to the rising prevalence of age-related conditions, including RA. Further, North America has a well-established regulatory framework that ensures the safety and efficacy of therapeutics.
The Rheumatoid Arthritis market is competitive, with the presence of several global and international market players. The key players are adopting different growth strategies to enhance their market presence, such as partnerships, agreements, collaborations, new product launches, geographical expansions, and mergers and acquisitions. Some of the major players operating in the market are UCB S.A., F. HOFFMANN-LA ROCHE LTD, Pfizer Inc, ABBVIE INC., Novartis AG, Eli Lilly and Company, Teva Pharmaceuticals, Inc., BRISTOL-MYERS SQUIBB COMPANY, Merck & Co., Inc., and JOHNSON & JOHNSON.
