Global Asthma Treatment Drugs Market Trends, Market Share, Industry Size, Growth, Opportunities and Market Forecast – 2022 to 2028

The global asthma treatment drugs market is expected to grow at a significant CAGR of 4.5% during the forecast period (2022-2028). The rising frequency of disorders including asthma, the aging population, increased research and development activities, and the existence of important market competitors are all contributing to this market growth. Asthma is a chronic respiratory condition in which mucus production, inflammation, and muscle tension restrict the airways of the lungs. Asthma is one of the most frequent diseases afflicting the world’s population, as well as a life-threatening disorder that affects a patient’s normal breathing. It is a chronic disorder that causes dyspnea, bronchospasm, and reversible blockage of airflow by stretching and narrowing the lungs’ air passageways.

Asthma affects more adult women than adult men in the US. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s 2020 report, almost 25 million Americans suffer from asthma. This equates to almost one in every thirteen Americans, including 8% of adults and 7% of children. Asthma affects around 20 million persons in the US. Furthermore, there has been a significant increase in the number of smokers, which leads to asthma symptoms. In the US alone, around 36.5 million adults currently smoke cigarettes, and more than 16 million are living with a smoking-related illness. Smoking damages almost every organ in the body and increases the risk for coronary heart disease, stroke, lung cancer, and several other types of cancer.

The key companies operating in the industry are highly inclined towards the adoption of different growth strategies including capacity expansion, partnerships, mergers and acquisitions, geographical expansion, new product launches, and product innovation to remain competitive in the marketplace. For instance, the US Food and Medicine Administration (FDA) approved AstraZeneca’s asthma drug Fasenra, a pre-filled, single-use auto-injector, for self-administration in October 2019. GlaxoSmithKline Plc and Iqvia Pty Ltd launched a phase III clinical trial in March 2021 to assess the efficacy and safety of GSK3511294 (Depemokimab) in adults and adolescents patients with severe uncontrolled asthma. In October 2023, the study is projected to be completed. Similarly, in February 2021, AstraZeneca Plc, in partnership with Amgen Inc, began a phase I clinical trial in children aged 5 to 11 years with asthma to examine the pharmacokinetic (PK) characteristics of a single subcutaneous (SC) dosage of tezepelumab. In September 2021, the experiment was completed.
