AUSTIN, Texas and TOKYO, Oct. 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The Neuromuscular Disease Therapeutics Market is entering a period of accelerated growth, supported by breakthroughs in gene therapy, antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs), monoclonal antibodies, and small-molecule modulators. According to DataM Intelligence, the Neuromuscular Disease Therapeutics Market Size reached US$ 11.89 billion in 2023, rose to US$ 13.70 billion in 2024, and is projected to reach US$ 45.62 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 14.4% during 2025–2033.
Neuromuscular diseases-including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), muscular dystrophies, spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), and myasthenia gravis-impact millions globally, with limited curative options historically. Advances in genomic medicine, targeted biologics, and digital diagnostics are reshaping the treatment landscape.
Global leaders such as Novartis, Biogen, AbbVie, AstraZeneca, Argenx, Takeda, and Sarepta Therapeutics are pioneering next-generation therapeutics. With strong regulatory backing, particularly from the U.S. FDA and Japan's PMDA, and rising investment in rare disease research, the neuromuscular therapeutics space is poised for sustained double-digit growth.

Market Segmentation Analysis
By Therapy
Gene Therapies dominated with US$ 4.6 billion in 2024. Novartis' Zolgensma® for SMA and Sarepta's gene therapies for Duchenne muscular dystrophy highlight the transformative role of single-dose, potentially curative treatments. By 2033, gene therapies are expected to contribute nearly 40% of total revenues.
Antisense Oligonucleotides (ASOs), valued at US$ 3.2 billion in 2024, continue to expand, with Biogen's Spinraza® leading SMA care and newer ASOs under development for ALS and myopathies.
Small-Molecule Splicing Modulators, worth US$ 2.1 billion in 2024, are expanding in SMA and myositis, offering oral administration advantages.
Monoclonal Antibodies & Complement Inhibitors generated US$ 2.8 billion in 2024, driven by Argenx's Vyvgart® for myasthenia gravis and AstraZeneca's rare disease-focused biologics portfolio.
By Disease Type
- Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), valued at US$ 3.4 billion in 2024, remains a critical focus, with ongoing R&D in gene therapy and neuroprotective approaches.
- Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA), contributing US$ 3.2 billion in 2024, continues to expand with gene therapies, ASOs, and oral splicing modulators.
- Muscular Dystrophies, worth US$ 2.8 billion in 2024, benefit from Sarepta and Pfizer's pipelines in Duchenne therapies.
- Myasthenia Gravis, valued at US$ 2.1 billion, is seeing rapid adoption of monoclonal antibody treatments.
By Route of Administration
Intravenous infusion therapies dominated (US$ 6.2 billion in 2024), covering ASOs, monoclonal antibodies, and enzyme-based treatments.
Oral therapies accounted for US$ 4.1 billion, led by small-molecule splicing modulators.
Subcutaneous administration contributed US$ 2.7 billion, offering greater patient convenience.
