The increasing focus on personalized medicine is significantly driving market demand by offering tailored treatment approaches for rare genetic disorders such as LAL-D. This customization aims to improve therapeutic outcomes by addressing specific patient needs, thereby further boosting market growth.
For instance, in 2022, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved 12 new personalized medicines, marking a significant advancement in the field. Personalized medicines have consistently accounted for up to a quarter of new drug approvals annually over the past eight years—a notable increase from a decade ago when they represented less than 10%. The FDA also expanded indications for many existing personalized therapies. These approvals are expected to drive the adoption of more precise, patient-specific treatments, enhancing outcomes and increasing the use of specialized therapies in the LAL-D market.
Moreover, increased investment in research and development, with a focus on advancements in genetic testing and biomarker identification, is expected to significantly boost market demand in the coming years.
