Sirolimus Market
Sirolimus Market- Size, Share, Outlook, and Opportunity Analysis, 2020- 2027
Sirolimus is a macrolide compound also known as rapamycin, which is a potent
immunosuppressant and shows both antifungal and antineoplastic properties. It
works by weakening the immune system, and helps your body to accept the new
organ, so in this manner it helps in preventing rejection of any organs after
transplant. Sirolimus is also used to coat coronary stents, and prophylaxis of
organ transplant rejection in patients receiving renal transplants, and for treating
Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (lung disease).

Approvals for generic versions of Rapamune (a branded sirolimus formulation)
for preventing organ transplant rejection is expected to drive the global sirolimus
market growth. For instance, in January 2019, Novitium Pharma LLC. received
the final approval for its abbreviated new drug application (ANDA) from the U.S.
FDA to market a generic version of an oral solution of Rapamune 1mg/ml
manufactured by PF Prism CV. In October 2014, Dr. Reddys Laboratories Ltd.,
received the final approval for its abbreviated new drug application (ANDA) from
the U.S, FDA to market a generic version of Rapamune tablet dosage (1mg).
Thus, approvals of sirolimus products by regulatory authorities to manage (or
prevent) organ transplant rejection is expected to drive growth of the global
sirolimus market. Factors such as rising incidence of kidney diseases has led to
an increase in the number of kidney transplants. Furthermore, increasing
prevalence of lifestyle-related disorders, improvement of healthcare infrastructure
due to increasing healthcare spending is expected to support global sirolimus
market growth over the forecast period. According to the National Kidney
Foundation, in 2014, around 17,107 kidney transplants took place in the U.S.,
among which, 5,537 kidneys were from living donors, and 11,570 kidneys were
from deceased donors.
Moreover, rising incidence of Alagille syndrome, Cystinosis, Glomerulonephritis,
Nephrotic syndrome, thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP), hemolytic
uremic syndrome (HUS), Interstitial nephritis, and others is expected to result in
increasing demand for transplants. Major market players are engaged in
research and development activities and product launches in order to introduce
optimized dosage forms. For instance, in 2014, Rapamune, a formulation
developed by Pfizer, lost its exclusivity as an immunosuppressant for kidney
transplant rejection management in the U.S. However, in 2015, Rapamune
became the first U.S. FDA approved drug for treating Lymphangioleiomyomatosis
(LAM) which is a rare progressive lung disease. These factors are expected to
support global sirolimus market growth over the forecast period.
North America is expected to dominate the global sirolimus market due to an
increasing number of product approvals for preventing organ transplant rejection.
For instance, one of the major leading company Pfizer Inc. has carried out
various clinical trial studies on sirolimus 1mg/2mg dose for different treatments
such as graft rejection, kidney transplant, renal allograft recipients, and renal
transplants which has successfully completed phase IV in 2013. Furthermore,
growing demand for kidney transplants is expected to propel growth of the global
sirolimus market growth over the forecast period. According to the National
Kidney Foundation, 2014 in U.S. data, every month approximately 3,000 patients
were added to the kidney transplant waiting list, and an estimated 13 people died
each day while waiting for a life-saving kidney transplant.
Some of the factors restraining the global sirolimus market growth are the side
effects associated with sirolimus such as increased susceptibility to infection,
malignancy, hypertriglyceridemia, hypercholesterolemia, angioedema, and
proteinuria. Administering sirolimus to patients undergoing liver and lung
transplants is generally avoided owing to side effects such as hyperlipidemia and
hepatic artery thrombosis.
Some of the major players operating in the global sirolimus market include Pfizer
Inc., Actiza, Zydus Cadila Healthcare Ltd., Inc., Greenstone Llc., Biocon, Livzon
NNR, and Intas Pharmaceuticals Ltd.
