The enzyme replacement therapy segment dominated the market in 2024, holding a 73.5% share. ERT's widespread adoption, bolstered by enhanced diagnostic programs and increased disease awareness, has led to substantial patient improvement. This segment's prevalence is due to its high efficacy in managing enzyme-deficient lysosomal diseases. The mucopolysaccharidoses therapies segment, however, held a 27.4% share in 2024, supported by regulatory incentives and growing investment in cell therapy and gene editing approaches [1].
North America led the market in 2024, with the U.S. and Canada accounting for a 42.3% share. This dominance can be attributed to robust insurance coverage for high-cost rare disease treatments and substantial public funding for LSD research. The North American market is further bolstered by significant grants from institutions like the NIH and Canadian health research agencies, which support research and innovation [1].
Key players in the LSD treatment market include Sanofi, Amicus Therapeutics, BioMarin, Takeda Pharmaceutical, and Orchard Therapeutics. These companies are actively involved in global distribution expansion, innovation in novel treatment modalities, and strategic collaborations with academic institutions and biotech firms. They are also investing in robust global distribution networks and targeted awareness initiatives to boost early diagnosis rates [1].
The market's growth is also driven by expanding newborn-screening programs and broader awareness initiatives, which enable earlier diagnosis and intervention. Increased early detection is boosting demand for both diagnostics and therapeutics, reshaping market dynamics and driving pipeline growth. However, high treatment costs and limited penetration in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) remain significant challenges [1].
Looking ahead, the market is expected to be shaped by growing demand for gene therapy and genome editing, the rise of specialized rare disease treatment centers, and the development of next-generation enzyme replacement treatments. Strategic collaborations, public-private partnerships, and registry-based research are also accelerating clinical trials and enhancing patient recruitment [1].
