Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Market Drivers

Increasing Predominance Of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Is Projected To Drive The Growth Of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Market:

As per the statistics maintained on the medlineplus.gov website, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis has an approximated predominance of 13 to 20 per 100,000 people globally, and around 100,000 people are impacted in the U.S., and 30,000 to 40,000 novel cases are diagnosed every year. When the cause of the ailment is not recognized, the fibrosis may be called idiopathic”. Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is the most typical kind of idiopathic interstitial lung disease (ILD). Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis has identical general symptoms as other kinds of pulmonary fibrosis. Lung transplantation may be a suitable treatment for some cases of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis. The expanding pervasiveness of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis amidst the mounting air pollution worldwide is fuelling the growth of the Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Market during the forecast period 2022-2027.

The Existence Of Associated Comorbidities Is Expected To Boost The Demand Of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis:

There are conditions like gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) (acid reflux, heartburn, or GERD), sleep apnea, or pulmonary hypertension (PH) that are frequently existing in people who are diagnosed with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF).  These conditions are termed “comorbid conditions” or “comorbidities.”  The existence of risk determinants and comorbidities offer cues that may be beneficial to a doctor who doubts that an ILD is existing in a patient. Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is generally observed in patients with IPF and is typically ascribed to hypoxic vasoconstriction and capillary destruction. The presence of related comorbidities is therefore driving the growth of the Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Market during the forecast period 2022-2027.

Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Market Challenges

Enhancing Survival Presents Challenges To The Growth Of The Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Market:

Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) is an ailment with a poor prognosis that seems unaltered over the past decade. The median survival in non-transplanted patients is about 3.5 years consequent to diagnosis. Thus, presently, enhancing survival seems the hardest target to accomplish. No investigation that targeted at demonstrating an impact on survival either as primary or secondary endpoint displayed proof of efficiency in this regard. This could be owing to numerous determinants, inclusive of disease heterogeneity, concomitant conditions affecting clinical response, incomplete knowledge of ailment pathogenetic mechanisms, real dearth of efficiency of the compounds tested so far, the requirement to deal with more than one fibrogenic pathway, which in turn, would need a multi-drug regimen, or case choice since clinical trials have frequently involved greatly chosen patients while plenty is excluded by virtue of their age, ailment severity, or comorbid conditions. This issue is hampering the growth of the Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Market.
