PORTLAND, Oregon, January 15, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --
A new report by Allied Market Research titled, "Global Erythropoietin (EPO) Drugs Market (Type, Application and Geography) - Size, Share, Global Trends, Company Profiles, Demand, Insights, Analysis, Research, Report, Opportunities, Segmentation and Forecast, 2013-2020", forecasts the Global EPO market to reach $11.9 billion by 2020, with promising CAGR of 9.7% from 2014 to 2020. Darbepoetin alfa is fastest growing drug class at a CAGR of 12.9% during the forecast period, owing to its high potency and minimal side-effects.
Rising incidences of Cancer, ESRD (End Stage Renal Disease), and HIV have largely contributed to the overwhelming demand for EPO drugs. Approximately 20% of the patients suffering from Cancer/HIV and ~70% of the patients suffering from ESRD undergo chemotherapy, which induces anemia in such patients, requiring EPO treatment. Despite this, the market nevertheless witnesses restraints due to highly priced EPO drugs resulting in minimal adoption. However, commercialization of EPO biosimilars would eventually ease the influence of restraints and fuel the market growth, primarily across the developing regions.
