Long-acting growth hormone deficiency treatments will boost market growth

12 August 2015

New research indicates that the global market for growth hormone deficiency (GHD) treatment will rise in value from $1.26 billion in 2014 to reach around $1.88 billion by 2024, representing a moderate compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.08%.

According to research and consulting firm GlobalData’s latest report, the increase, which will occur across the seven major countries of the USA, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, UK and Japan, will be primarily driven by the launch of long-acting growth hormone biobetters, which are expected to begin entering the market in 2017.

GlobalData’s senior analyst covering cardiovascular and metabolic disorders, Lakshmi Dharmarajan, says the less frequent dosing schedules of these drugs will be attractive to patients, offering improved compliance and adherence outcomes.
