The global Parkinson’s disease treatment market size is expected to reach USD 11.98 billion by 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc., growing at a CAGR of 12.1% from 2022 to 2030. This can be attributed to the rising investment in the research and development of novel treatments for PD. In August 2021, the Parkinson’s Foundation announced an investment of USD 43 million as a research grant to 29 research projects having the goal of developing novel treatments and therapies for PD. In addition, in May 2021, the Parkinson’s Foundation announced an investment of USD 10 million for research, care, and educational programs related to Parkinson’s Disease (PD). This investment may aid in providing awareness and genetic testing free of cost to people suffering from PD.
Such investment initiatives are expected to boost industry growth. In the last ten years, there have been significant R&D activities in the PD therapy sector, leading to the development of innovative drug-delivery methods. Due to fewer side effects, these cutting-edge drug delivery systems outperform the existing ones. In addition, the rate of prescription for these techniques has increased due to a rise in patient compliance, which is fueling the expansion of the industry. Moreover, key pharmaceutical companies are undertaking initiatives, such as collaborations and partnerships, for the development, manufacturing & commercialization of products to meet the rising demand for disease treatment in the international market.
For instance, in November 2021, STADA Arzneimittel and Bioglan formed a partnership to expand the production capacity of the medicine Lecigon (levodopa/carbidopa/entacapone) used to treat patients with PD. Thus, increasing demand for medicines that are used to treat patients with PD is anticipated to drive industry growth. However, the limited availability of neurologists leads to issues, such as longer waiting times for patients and difficulty in hiring new neurosurgeons in hospitals. In addition, some of the currently practicing neurologists avoid accepting new Medicaid patients, which creates difficulty for patients who want to switch to another doctor. According to the American Academy of Neurology (AAN) report, around 19% shortage of neurologists is projected by 2025.
