Market Definition
Inborn Errors of Metabolism (IEM) are a group of disorders in which the body fails to convert food into energy. Due to mutations in genes, there is less or no production of specific enzymes, these enzymes are responsible for breaking down certain substances. This breakdown leads to the accumulation of some toxic substances and results in severe complications. To treat these disorders, the concerned patients are given specific diets which are also known as medical foods under the supervision of physicians. For instance, Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a disease in which there is an accumulation of an amino acid which is known as phenylalanine. This can cause intellectual disability, seizures, and many other mental disorders. To treat this, they are given IEM diets such as Phenylketonuria (PKU)-1 manufactured by Pristine Organics Pvt Ltd.
Global Medical Foods for Inborn Errors of Metabolism Market Dynamics
Drivers
- Rising Incidences of Inborn Errors of Metabolism (IEM)
Advanced diagnostic methods play an essential role in the increasing acceptance of IEM. In the past, these disorders were often misdiagnosed or overlooked due to limited information and diagnostic tools. However, advances in medical technology and genetic testing have changed our ability to accurately diagnose IEM. Advanced technologies such as next-generation sequencing and biochemical analysis allow healthcare professionals to identify specific genetic mutations or abnormalities in metabolic pathways associated with these disorders. This improved diagnostic accuracy has contributed to the increased incidence of IEM. For instance, advances in next-generation sequencing technology have made it possible to identify rare IEM variants that were previously difficult to locate. This enabled a more accurate and comprehensive diagnosis of these disorders.
- Rising Preference for Dietary Supplements Over Enzyme Replacement Therapy (ERT)
The rising preference for dietary supplements over Enzyme Replacement Therapy (ERT) in the treatment of IEM may be due to several factors. First, dietary supplements offer a non-invasive and convenient approach to treatment. Unlike ERT, which often involves an injection or infusion, supplements can be taken orally, making them more attractive to patients who want a less invasive option. In addition, food supplements provide comprehensive nutritional support, as they contain various nutrients, cofactors, and substrates necessary for optimal metabolism. This broader spectrum of support addresses several metabolic deficits associated with specific IEM, which can lead to more effective management of the condition.
The increased popularity of nutritional supplements has led to a growing demand for specialty medical foods that meet the unique nutritional needs of IEM patients. This expanded the size of the market and led manufacturers to develop a wider range of products to meet this demand. In addition, the preference for dietary supplements encouraged R&D to improve the composition and effectiveness of medical foods, which led to the use of new and better alternatives. Thus, the rising preference for dietary supplements over ERT in the management of IEM is expected to drive market growth.
Opportunities
- Government Initiatives and Programs for Creating Awareness About Inborn Errors of Metabolism
Governments around the world have recognized the importance of raising awareness about IEM and have implemented various initiatives and programs to address this need. These initiatives aim to educate healthcare professionals, individuals and families affected by IEM, and the general public. Here are some government initiatives and programs to raise awareness of IEM. Government initiatives and programs aimed at increasing awareness of IEM act as market opportunities, driving demand for diagnostic tools, therapeutic procedures, and specialty products. These initiatives also promote R&D, facilitate market expansion through international collaboration and provide funding and support to companies in the field. Thus, government initiative and programs for creating awareness about IEM is expected to provide an opportunity for market growth.
Restraint/Challenge
- High Cost of Medical Foods
The high cost of medical foods is due to many factors that affect the cost of their production, development, and distribution. Firstly, special medical foods require extensive R&D. Manufacturers invest in scientific research and clinical trials to find the optimal combination of nutrients, bioactive compounds, and therapeutic agents to treat specific health conditions. This study involves the expertise of nutritionist’s food and health professionals, which increases the total cost. The high cost of medical foods is a market constraint because it limits affordability and market reach. Expensive price tags put these specialty nutritional products out of reach for many people. Thus, the high cost of medical foods is expected to restraint market growth.
Recent Developments
- In October 2023, Nestlé Health Science and Amwell announced a collaboration to help health organizations improve patients’ overall health through innovative digital solutions focused on nutrition. Together the companies are developing a portfolio of novel solutions to help improve clinical and financial outcomes. This will enhance the brand image for both the companies
- In March 2021, Meiji Co., Ltd. launched formula milk in tablet format under Danone's Aptamil brand in the UK. The tablets, featuring pre-measured tabs, aim to provide convenience for parents. Production began in Wexford, Ireland, combining Meiji's technology with Danone's recipes. Danone plans to expand the product to other European countries starting in 2022. Meiji aims to increase overseas sales to 10% by FY 2026
