Canine atopic dermatitis (AD) has been defined as a genetically predisposed inflammatory and pruritic allergic skin disease of dogs and cats. Atopic dermatitis in dogs is treated by using antibiotics, immunosuppressant, Janus kinase inhibitors, and monoclonal antibodies. For instance, CYTOPOINT is one of the most efficient monoclonal antibodies used for the treatment of canine atopic dermatitis. Major players operating in the global canine atopic dermatitis treatment drugs market include Zenoaq (Nippon Zenyaku Kogyo Co., Ltd.), Virbac, Elanco Animal Health, Kindred Biosciences Inc., Toray Industries, and Zoetis Inc.
Furthermore, the development of new treatment options in regenerative medicine for canine atopic dermatitis is on high demand, which provides opportunity for pharmaceutical and biotechnological companies to develop new drugs to treat AD. Cell therapy is one of the emerging treatment options in canine atopic dermatitis. Several organizations are focused on the development of cell therapy and such treatments are under clinical trials.
The global canine atopic dermatitis treatment drugs market size is estimated to be valued at US$ 765 million in 2021 and is expected to witness a CAGR of 16.5% over the forecast period (2021-2028).

Rising number of research and development activities is expected to drive growth of the global canine atopic dermatitis treatment drugs market
The rising number of research and development activities to launch various treatment therapies for canine atopic dermatitis is expected to be a major factor driving the growth of the global canine atopic dermatitis treatment drugs market in the near future. For instance, in July 2019, Kindred Biosciences, Inc., a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, announced positive results from its pilot study on effectiveness of KIND-016, a fully caninized (anti-canine), high-affinity monoclonal antibody targeting interleukin-31 (IL-31), for the treatment of atopic dermatitis in dogs.
A single dose of KIND-016 or placebo was administered on day 1 and the atopic dermatitis severity (Canine Atopic Dermatitis Extent and Severity Index-4 [CADESI-4 score]) was assessed on day 1, and weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8.
Canine Atopic Dermatitis Treatment Drugs Market – Impact of Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic
The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is the most recent outbreak, which was first reported on December 31, 2019, in Wuhan, China. In Australia, the first COVID-19 case was confirmed in late January 2020, while in New Zealand, the first case was confirmed in late February 2020.
For many allergies and diseases the environmental factors are responsible. Increasing R & D activities are expected to rise the market. In 2020, according to the research article, Veterinary Medicine and Science, for the treatment of canine atopic dermatitis the Luteolin was evaluated to study the antioxidant effect. After evaluation the Luteolin resulted as it was able to minimize the levels of IL-33, IL-6 and IL-8.

Global Canine Atopic Dermatitis Treatment Drugs Market - Competitive Landscape
Key players operating in the global canine atopic dermatitis treatment drugs market include Zoetis Inc., Elanco Animal Health Incorporated, Virbac, Kindred Biosciences, Inc., Nippon Zenyaku Kogyo Co., Ltd. (ZENOAQ), Bioiberica S.A.U, Dechra Pharmaceuticals PLC, and Toray Industries, Inc.
Canine atopic dermatitis is an inflammatory, chronic skin disease associated with allergies. This is the second most common allergic skin disease in dogs. The major cause of atopic dermatitis in dogs is harmful allergen such as animal dander, airborne pollens, mold spores, and house dust. This disease in dogs is often hereditary and exposure to any harmful allergen can trigger the onset of canine atopic dermatitis. Its symptoms include excessive itching and scratching, hair loss, greasy or flaky skin with a foul odor, and excessive scratching on the paws and areas such as the groin and armpits.
Market Dynamics
The global canine atopic dermatitis treatment drugs market is expected to witness high growth over the forecast period, owing to increasing pet ownership.
However, the high cost associated with cyclosporine, glucocorticoids, immunotherapy, and oral histamines treatment therapies is a major factor restraining the global canine atopic dermatitis treatment drugs market growth. For instance, the cost of canine atopic dermatitis treatment ranges from US$ 600 to US$ 1,100 depending on the type and severity of atopic dermatitis. An additional cost of diagnostic tests, sedation for injection, and others may include more than US$ 200 to US$ 300.
