Multiple Myeloma Therapeutics Market

Global Multiple Myeloma Therapeutics Market Size 

In 2024,the global multiple myeloma therapeutics market was valued at USD 9.1 billion and it is expected to reach USD 13.88 billion by 2033 from USD 9.54 billion in 2025, growing at a CAGR of 4.8 % during the forecast period 2025 to 2033.

Multiple myelomas majorly affect the kidney, bones, and blood. Patients suffering from multiple myeloma generally show several such as fatigue, loss of appetite, bone pain, and increased urination. Therefore, numerous tests are executed to confirm the disease containing bone marrow, urine, and blood tests. Multiple Myeloma (MM) is a hematological malignancy considered by the propagation of plasma cells in the bone marrow. The disease is incurable, though, over the few years, there have been substantial developments in therapy, determined by a greater understanding of pathophysiology. Multiple myelomas are common among men compared to women and arise commonly with growing age.

MARKET DRIVERS

The growth of the global multiple myeloma treatment market is majorly driven by the YOY rise in the incidence of multiple myeloma.

The American Cancer Society stated that at the end of 2014, the United States diagnosed nearly 24,050 new cases of multiple myeloma. Multiple myelomas are more common in men than women and occur more often with age. Thus, an increase in the elderly population will undoubtedly drive the growth of the multiple myeloma therapeutics market during the forecast period. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that by 2050 nearly 2 billion people will be in the elderly population. Therefore, the increasing prevalence of the disease and the growth of the elderly population are the significant factors expected to accelerate the growth of the global multiple myeloma therapeutics market. In addition, the complications associated with treating patients will also include supportive measures such as reparative treatment, including transfusion.

Furthermore, the global multiple myeloma therapeutics market is favored by factors such as the presence of large companies and the increased adoption of new therapies that have benefited the regional industry. With the growing patient volume in countries such as the United States and new treatments, the market is anticipated to grow steadily during the forecast period. Also, governments and NGOs' ongoing efforts to raise patient awareness of new treatment options play an active role in supporting this vertical. As a result, the United States accounts for a significant portion of the North American market.

MARKET RESTRAINTS

The high treatment prices and laws and regulations are significant limitations to the growth of the North American multiple myeloma therapeutics market. In addition, the limited target patient population in the North American multiple myeloma treatment market is a challenging factor that will play a vital role during the forecast period.

SEGMENTAL ANALYSIS

By Treatment Type Insights

The targeted therapy is expected to account for the major share of the global market during the forecast period. Proteasome inhibitors blocks proteasome, which treats unwanted cellular proteins. These inhibitors create proteins that cause cancer cells to die. Velcade was the first drug approved for proteasome to be considered a therapeutic target. Kyprolis is a second-generation proteasome inhibitor approved for use in patients with relapses.

However, the chemotherapy segment is also expected to show significant growth during the forecast period due to the recent prevalence of chemotherapy sessions. In addition, chemotherapy allows the medication to spread directly to the bloodstream throughout the body and is recommended for fast relief. Therefore, chemotherapy is often used as a mixed treatment mode along with drugs, especially before stem cell therapies.

By Drug Type Insights

The Thalomide segment is projected to hold the leading share of the global multiple myeloma therapeutics market during the forecast period. Thalomide is very active across the myeloma disease spectrum; Revlimid is more effective than Thalomide. Pomalyst is an overall immunomodulatory agent that is more effective and has few side effects. Immunomodulatory agents are the most used drug type, dominating market revenue.

However, the corticosteroids segment is also expected to show growth during the forecast period due to the rising use of corticosteroids to reduce the side effects of chemotherapy, like vomiting and nausea. Even though some risks are associated with the long-term use of corticosteroids, most of these problems gradually reduce and are gone when you stop the prescription.

REGIONAL ANALYSIS

North America had the most significant global market share in 2024 due to the most significant manufacturers of multiple myeloma drugs located within the area. The North American multiple myeloma therapeutics market is further driven by an aging population, increasing obesity, rising healthcare costs, and the penetration of new anticancer drugs. Key factors driving market expansion are renewal, effective treatment options, and high adoption rates. In addition, with people aging in countries like the USA and Canada, the regional market is foreseen to expand with a promising growth rate.

The Asia-Pacific region is anticipated to register the fastest CAGR during the forecast period owing to the significantly growing geriatric population in countries such as China and India. Furthermore, the market in this region is further anticipated to grow due to a demand for better infrastructure and growing disposable incomes. In addition, rising awareness about multiple myeloma in the region promotes the market's growth.

Europe is driven by the rising presence of key players in the market and the growing approvals of new products in the region. Additionally, advanced healthcare systems in countries like the U.K., France, Italy, Germany, etc., support market growth.

The multiple myeloma therapeutics market in Latin America is expected to project a steady CAGR during the forecast period.

The multiple myeloma therapeutics market in the Middle East and Africa is anticipated to showcase a moderate CAGR during the forecast period due to the rising care toward healthcare.
