The global hemoglobinopathy drugs market is anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period (2021-2027). Hemoglobinopathy is a group of hereditary blood disorders involving an abnormality in the structure of haemoglobin. These disorders include both sickle cell disease (SCD) and thalassemia. Common symptoms of the condition include severe pain, shortness of breath, enlarged spleen, and growth problems in children. Other types of hemoglobinopathies linked to the structural haemoglobin variants are HbS, HbE, and HbC.
The major factor that is expected to boost the global hemoglobinopathy drugs market includes the increasing incidence and prevalence of sickle cell disease, which will propel the growth of the global hemoglobinopathy treatment drugs market over the forecast period. For instance, according to the data published in Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in October 2019, SCD affects around 100,000 Americans every year. Moreover, as per the same source, around 1 in 13 African-American babies are born with sickle cell trait.
The global hemoglobinopathy drugs market analysis includes some of the key market players such as GlycoMimetics Inc., Pfizer Inc., Anthera Pharmaceuticals Inc., Eli Lilly and Company, and Mast Therapeutics, among others. To maintain a strong position in the market, these market players are adopting various strategic moves, such as product launches, partnerships, collaborations, and mergers and acquisitions.
