Report Scope and Market Segmentation

Market Definition

The most prevalent chronic disease affecting the joints is osteoarthritis, often known as degenerative arthritis. The affected body parts experience acute joint pain and stiffness as a result of this. Osteoarthritis can be treated with a variety of methods, including exercise for joint pain relief and pain medicines. OA symptoms can be relieved with over-the-counter (OTC) pain medications such as acetaminophen (Tylenol) or a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). Duloxetine (Cymbalta) is a prescription pain reliever that can also be used to treat long-term (chronic) OA discomfort. Steroid injections can often provide significant relief from OA pain in the short to medium term.

Osteoarthritis Treatment Market Dynamics

Drivers

• Increasing prevalence of osteoarthritis

The rising prevalence of osteoarthritis is estimated to enhance the osteoarthritis treatment market's growth. Injury, obesity, and a variety of other factors contribute to osteoarthritis. The damaged bodily part has severe joint pain and stiffness. Swelling of joints, tingling in the legs and limbs, and a reduction in range of motion are all indications of osteoarthritis. As per a study published in the Lancet Journal in November 2020, osteoarthritis affected about 7% of the global population, or more than 500 million people, in 2019, with women disproportionately affected. The number of people affected by osteoarthritis globally increased by 48 percent from 1990 to 2019, and osteoarthritis was the 15th leading cause of years lived with disability (YLDs) in 2019.

• Increasing investment for healthcare infrastructure

Another significant factor influencing the growth rate of osteoarthritis treatment market is the rising healthcare expenditure which helps in improving its infrastructure. Also, various government organizations aims to improve the healthcare infrastructure by increasing funding and this will further influence the market dynamics.

• Growing number of geriatric population

The surging geriatric population is estimated to enhance the market's expansion during the forecast period of 2022-2029. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the worldwide geriatric population, which was estimated to be over 524 million in 2010, is expected to increase to nearly 2 billion by 2050. Due to their compromised immune systems, geriatrics are more susceptible to getting osteoarthritis treatment, further estimated to enhance theirmarket's growth rate.

• Surging cases of joint injuries

The increasing number of joint injuries is estimated to elevate the 'market's growth rate. Osteoarthritis can be worsened by injuries sustained while participating in sports or as a result of an accident. Osteoarthritis can be triggered by injuries that occurred many years ago but appear to have healed.

Furthermore, rising initiatives by public and private organizations to spread awareness will expand the osteoarthritis treatment market. Additionally, rising incidences of orthopedic disorders and sedentary lifestyle of people will expand the osteoarthritis treatment market.

Opportunities

• Increase in the number of research and development activities       

Moreover, the market's growth is fueled by an increase in the number of research and development activities of medication for symptomatic treatment of osteoarthritis. This will provide beneficial opportunities for the osteoarthritis treatment market growth. For illustration, Flexion Therapeutics, Inc. began a Phase III investigation of FX006 32 mg, which is indicated for knee osteoarthritis, in April 2018.

Moreover, rising investment in the development of advanced technologies and an increase in the number of emerging markets will provide beneficial opportunities for the osteoarthritis treatment market growth during the forecast period.

Restraints/Challenges

• Side effects linked with Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs)

NSAIDs, both over-the-counter and prescribed, are commonly used to treat osteoarthritis pain. According to a report published by the National Center for Biotechnology Information in 2019, NSAIDs are administered to more than half of all osteoarthritis patients in the United States. Similarly, 60 percent of osteoarthritis patients in Europe who used prescription drugs (47 percent) received NSAIDs. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have been linked to an enhanced risk of cardiovascular events. Both selective and non-selective NSAIDs (coxibs) increase the risk of cardiovascular disease in patients. These factors will impede the 'market's growth rate during the forecast period of 2021-2029.

On the other hand, high cost high cost associated with the treatment will obstruct the growth rate of market. The dearth of skilled professionals and lack of healthcare infrastructure in developing economies will challenge the osteoarthritis treatment market. Additionally, strict regulatory policies and lack of awareness among people will restrain and further impede the growth rate of the market during the forecast period of 2022-2029.

COVID-19 Impact on Osteoarthritis Treatment Market

Over the projected period, the osteoarthritis treatment market was expected to be constrained by the COVID-19 outbreak. Since its emergence in December 2019, the COVID-19 virus has spread to nearly every country on the planet, prompting the World Health Organization (WHO) to declare it a public health emergency. COVID-19, a new coronavirus, was identified as the causal agent in the pneumonia cases. This virus spread quickly over the world, killing many people. COVID-19 was labelled a global pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO) in March 2020, and rigorous measures to prevent the disease's spread were recommended. Since then, the pandemic has delayed the expansion of the healthcare sector and disrupted the supply chain. Furthermore, governments in many nations had imposed nationwide lockdowns to halt the spread of COVID-19. Similarly, healthcare organizations in numerous nations throughout the world were having difficulty continuing their supply chain activities. The osteoarthritis treatment market was hampered by the supply chain slowness.

Recent Development

• In December 2020, Moebius Medical had announced the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) clearance for its investigational new drug (IND) application for initiating a global multi-center Phase IIb clinical trial of MM-II, which is a novel candidate for the treatment of pain due to knee osteoarthritis (OA).
