At 15.1% CAGR, Middle East & Africa Biologics Market is Projected to be Worth US$ 17,939.1 Million by 2031, says Business Market Insights
According to Business Market Insights' research, the Middle East & Africa biologics market was valued at US$ 5,818.6 million in 2023 and is expected to reach US$ 17,939.1 million by 2031, registering a CAGR of 15.1% from 2023 to 2031. Increasing prevalence of chronic diseases and gene and cell therapy advancements in biologics are among the critical factors attributed to drive the Middle East & Africa biologics market growth.
According to a study titled "Chronic Disease: A Bio-Logical Approach," published in Ellerston Capital Limited, 41 million people worldwide die from chronic diseases every year, accounting for 74% of all deaths worldwide. Cancer was responsible for almost 10 million deaths in 2020, i.e., 1 in every 6 deaths. According to GLOBOCAN, 19.3 million cancer cases were registered worldwide in 2020, and the number is estimated to rise to 24.6 million by 2030. In addition, the prevalence of autoimmune diseases increases annually by 3-9%. The number of Alzheimer's disease cases is expected to reach 78 million by 2030 and 139 million by 2050. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), every year, ~17 million people across the world succumb to death due to noncommunicable diseases before the age of 70. Biologics such as antibodies and vaccines offer more targeted treatment because they are designed to interact with the immune system in specific ways to deliver a therapeutic or prophylactic effect. Biological drugs have the promising potential to treat a few chronic autoimmune diseases by blocking the overactive components (proteins in many cases) of the immune system, which damage joints, skin, and other body parts. The treatment of cancer with biologics involves using the body's immune cells to kill cancerous cells; cytokines such as interferons, interleukins, and monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are the most used biologic therapies employed to treat cancer. Anti-amyloid mAbs have also shown promising therapeutic effects in clinical studies conducted on Alzheimer's disease patients. Chronic diseases such as ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease include recurring episodes of inflammation of the mucosal layer of the colon. The US Food and Drug Administration has approved a few biological drugs for the treatment of Crohn's disease; these include infliximab, adalimumab, and natalizumab. Further, biological disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs are one of the major approaches to treating rheumatoid arthritis. With the shift in doctors' and patients' preference from conventional to aggressive approaches, the demand for biologics in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis is also on the rise. Therapeutics use is partially or fully humanized proteins targeting different immune response pathways. Therefore, the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases drives the growth of the biologics market.
On the contrary, the high cost of biologics hampers the growth of Middle East & Africa biologics market.
