Diffusive Alveolar Hemorrhage Treatment Market Size, Share, Industry, Forecast and outlook (2024-2031)

Report Overview

The Global Diffusive Alveolar Hemorrhage Treatment Market reached US$ 562 million in 2023 and is expected to reach US$ 926 million by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 6.6% during the forecast period 2024-2031. 

Diffusive alveolar hemorrhage is a life-threatening condition in which bleeding happens in the alveolar spaces of the lung. The bleeding can be caused by injury or inflammation in the arterioles venules, or alveolar septal capillaries. The symptoms of diffusive alveolar hemorrhage are dyspnea, hemoptysis, cough, etc. Diffusive alveolar hemorrhage (DAH) is caused by conditions such as systemic vasculitis, good posture syndrome, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), pulmonary infections, toxic compound exposures, coagulation disorders, and cardiac disorders.

Market Dynamics: Drivers

Rising prevalence of diffusive alveolar hemorrhage

The prevalence of diffusive alveolar hemorrhage is not well documented, due to the rarity of the condition. However, several autoimmune conditions majorly precipitate the condition. Among these, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and systemic vasculitis are the major autoimmune conditions behind DAH. As their incidence rises, the incidence of DAH is also anticipated to rise. With the advancements in diagnostics, the target population for treatment also rises, contributing to the overall market growth.

For instance, according to a global epidemiology study published in the Annals of Rheumatic Disease journal in October 2022, the annual incidence of systemic lupus erythematosus is 5.14 per 100,000 person-years. As per DataM estimates, this reflects a total of 413,530 cases of SLE in 2023. Upon literature review, the incidence of alveolar hemorrhage among SLE patients ranges from 0.6% to 5.4% per 100,000 patient-years, which makes the total incidence of 12,467 diffusive alveolar hemorrhage patients in 2023, caused by SLE.

However, this number only makes up a specific portion of total DAH patients worldwide. The condition can be caused by various conditions such as infections, cardiac disorders, toxin exposures, etc. As the incidence rises, the total prevalence of DAH is also anticipated to rise in the future, which is the major growth driving factor for the market in the forecast period.

Restraints

The market for diffusive alveolar hemorrhage treatment is restrained by several factors such as limited patient population i.e., rarity of the condition, lack of specific treatment options, and high mortality rate. For the manufacturers to develop a specific treatment option, there should be an appropriate number of patient population to conduct clinical trials and validate the efficacy of their innovative treatment. Due to lack of sufficient patient population, the manufacturers may not focus on innovations, which may limit the treatment options and restrain the market growth.

Market Segment Analysis

The global diffusive alveolar hemorrhage treatment market is segmented based on type, treatment type, patient type, and region.

Pharmacotherapy in the treatment type segment accounted for approximately 71.3% of the global diffusive alveolar hemorrhage treatment  market share

Diffusive alveolar hemorrhage is majorly caused by underlying autoimmune conditions such as systemic lupus erythematosus, Wegener's granulomatosis, Goodpasture syndrome, etc. To treat DAH, it is the primary step to treat the underlying conditions. Drugs such as steroids and immunosuppressants remain the mainstay therapeutic options for this condition.

Steroids such as prednisolone, and methylprednisolone remain the first-line therapeutic agents. In addition, immunosuppressant drugs are prescribed for autoimmune destruction. These immunosuppressants include cyclophosphamide, azathioprine, methotrexate. In the past decade, Rituximab was added to this list, which is effective for immunosuppression. Rituximab is a monoclonal antibody which acts by suppressing ANCA-producing CD20(+) plasma cells. By the combination prescription of Steroids and immunosuppressants, the mortality rate can be hugely reduced. 

In addition to these standard treatments, to effectively stop bleeding, various prothrombotic factors including antifibrinolytics, thrombin, and FVIIa can be given, but these agents have very little clinical evidence and are only prescribed for off-label use. 

Market Geographical Analysis 

North America dominates the global diffusive alveolar hemorrhage treatment market with a share of 43.3% in 2023

North America dominates the global diffusive alveolar hemorrhage treatment market due to its advanced healthcare infrastructure and facilities, easy accessibility to a variety of treatments, availability of branded drugs offered by global pharmaceutical industry leaders, and increasing prevalence, etc.

Autoimmune conditions such as systemic lupus erythematosus, and systemic vasculitis are the main culprits behind diffusive alveolar hemorrhage (DAH). As their prevalence is rising, the incidence of DAH is anticipated to rise in the region. For instance, according to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), estimated there are 204,000 patients with SLE in the U.S. According to the literature review, among SLE patients, alveolar hemorrhage incidence ranges from 1% to 5.4% of lupus patients, which accounts for approximately 6150 (1,285-11,016) cases as per DataM estimates.

Although the condition is very rare, the region’s advanced healthcare facilities and diagnostic centers actively diagnose the patient and improve the treatment rate. This combined with the availability of gold-standard drugs such as rituximab, and cyclophosphamide offered by leading pharmaceutical companies like Roche, Amgen, Pfizer, etc. improve the overall number of patients receiving the treatment.

Hence, considering these factors, along with the epidemiological data and sales figures by market leaders, North America is designated as a dominant region in the global market.
