Report Code: HCR 0953 Report Format: PDF + Excel
Tropical Spastic Paraparesis Market Overview

The Tropical Spastic Paraparesis Market size is estimated to reach $765.7 million by 2027, growing at a CAGR of 9.8% during the forecast period 2022-2027. Tropical spastic paraparesis (TSP) is an endemic neurological ailment discovered in numerous tropical and subtropical areas, like the Caribbean Islands, southern U.S., South America and Africa. The cause of TSP was ambiguous until the mid-1980s when a significant linkage was identified between the human retrovirus - human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (also termed as HTLV-1) and TSP. TSP is presently termed HTLV-1 associated myelopathy/ tropical spastic paraparesis or HAM/TSP. The HTLV-1 retrovirus is thought to bring about at least 80 percent of the cases of HAM/TSP by harming the immune system. Spastic paraparesis is a condition that is an exhibition of central nervous system ailments that bring about injury to the motor cortex or descending motor pathways. Tropical spastic paraparesis (TSP), is a medical condition that brings about weakness, muscle spasms and sensory disturbance by the human T-lymphotropic virus leading to paraparesis, and weakness of the legs. Treatment of TSP includes corticosteroids to assist with inflammation. Although any success with corticosteroids is short-lived, with symptoms worsening as the dosage is decreased. Certain signs of Tropical Spastic Paraparesis include leg instability, urinary dysfunction, bowel dysfunction, back pain, erectile issues and psoriasis. Patients with TSP may also display uveitis (inflammation of the uveal tract of the eye), arthritis (inflammation of one or more joints), pulmonary lymphocytic alveolitis (inflammation of the lung tissues), polymyositis (an inflammatory muscle disease), keratoconjunctivitis sicca (persistent dryness of the cornea and conjunctiva) and infectious dermatitis (inflammation of the skin). Treatment of TSP involves interferon alpha and corticosteroids.

The increasing transmission of HTLV-1 virus person-to-person through infected cells and the surging treatment options for Tropical Spastic Paraparesis including corticosteroids and interferon alpha are set to drive the Tropical Spastic Paraparesis Market. The rising count of HTLV-1 seropositive carriers becoming HAM/TSP patients is set to propel the growth of the Tropical Spastic Paraparesis Industry during the forecast period 2022-2027. This represents the Tropical Spastic Paraparesis Industry Outlook.

Tropical Spastic Paraparesis Market Drivers

Surging Applications of Corticosteroids and Interferon Alpha are Projected to Drive the Growth of Tropical Spastic Paraparesis Industry:

There is no well-established treatment program for HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP). HAM/TSP progresses in nearly 1 or 2% of individuals who bear HTLV-I. The outbreak of HAM/TSP happens subsequent to 5 or more years of accommodating the HTLV-I virus. Therefore, the ailment is rare in children. Corticosteroids may alleviate certain symptoms, however, are not possibly going to alter the course of the ailment. Clinical investigations recommend that interferon alpha offers advantages over brief periods and certain facets of ailment activity may be enhanced positively by utilizing interferon beta. Inflexible and spastic muscles may be attended to with Lioresal or tizanidine. Urinary dysfunction may be attended to with oxybutynin. The surging applications of Corticosteroids and Interferon Alpha are therefore fuelling the growth of the Tropical Spastic Paraparesis Industry, thereby contributing to the Tropical Spastic Paraparesis Industry Outlook, during the forecast period 2022-2027.

Soaring Research on Tropical Spastic Paraparesis is Expected to Boost the Growth of the Tropical Spastic Paraparesis Market:

Tropical spastic paraparesis has been identified clinically for numerous years in tropical areas and Japan. It is characterized by a chronic course in which mild-to-serious leg weakness establishes with raised muscle tone and extensor plantar responses. “One-half of patients have posterior column sensory signs and 15% have optic nerve involvement”. Individuals with Tropical Spastic Paraparesis may display polymyositis (an inflammatory muscle disease), keratoconjunctivitis sicca (persistent dryness of the cornea and conjunctiva) and infectious dermatitis (inflammation of the skin) among other signs and symptoms. The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) and additional institutes of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) direct research connected to HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) in laboratories at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and back added research by way of grants to principal medical institutions across the nation. Much of this research aims attention at discovering superior ways to avert, treat and eventually cure ailments like HAM/TSP. The soaring research on Tropical Spastic Paraparesis is therefore driving the growth of the Tropical Spastic Paraparesis Market during the forecast period 2022-2027.

Tropical Spastic Paraparesis Market Challenges
