Chagas disease is a tropical parasitic disease and is endemic in 21 countries in Latin America. Chagas disease can transmitted through blood transfusion, organ transplantation, as well as congenital and oral transmissions. Chagas disease is endemic to Latin America, however, in the recent past, there is a rise in global incidence of Chagas disease due to the migration of Latin American people to other countries. According to data published by World Health Organization (WHO), in February 2018, globally, around 6 Mn to 7 Mn people were infected with Trypansosoma cruzi, the parasite which causes Chagas disease. Benznidazole and Nifurtimox are only two drugs available for the treatment of Chagas disease.

Market Dynamics

Rising migration of people from endemic countries to developed economies such as the U.S. and in countries in Europe is expected to drive growth of Chagas disease treatment market. For instance, according to the data published by Public Library of Science (PLOS), in 2012, there are around 1,62,095 Bolivian adults living in Spain, in which about 97,215 are women (60%) and 64,880 are men. It was estimated that out of total immigrants from Bolivia to Spain 34,202 were found to be potentially infected with Chagas disease. Furthermore, increasing R&D activities for the development of novel treatment methods for Chagas disease is also expected to create a lucrative environment for the market growth. For instance, in 2016, researchers from Saint Louis University Center for Vaccine Development were working on developing a vaccine for Chagas disease. Scientists found Th17 cells, a special type of white blood cell that recognizes the presence of a foreign invader and helps other cells in the immune system to attack and protects the body against Trypanosoma cruzi parasite.
