Global Eczema Therapeutics Market, by Treatment (Corticosteroids, Emollients/Moisturizers, Antihistamines, Calcineurin inhibitors, Antibiotics, Immunomodulators, and Interleukin inhibitors), by Distribution Channel (Hospital and Clinics, Retail Pharmacies, and Online Pharmacies) and by Region (North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East, and Africa), is estimated to be valued at US$ 15,453.4 million in 2021 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 11.1% during the forecast period (2021-2028).
Market players are indulged in receiving drug approvals from the regulatory authorities for the treatment of eczema, which is expected to increase the growth of the global eczema therapeutics market over the forecast period. For instance, in 2017, Regeneron, received approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (U.S. FDA) for Dupixent (dupilumab) injection to treat adults with moderate-to-severe eczema (atopic dermatitis). Dupixent is intended for patients whose eczema is not controlled adequately by topical therapies, or for those patients for whom topical therapies are not advisable. Dupixent can be used with or without topical corticosteroids.
Increasing research and development activities by the market players and research institutes is expected to drive the growth of the global eczema therapeutics market over the forecast period. For instance, on February 24, 2021, researchers from the University of California, San Diego (UCSD), School of Medicine, reported that they have identified a universal strain of bacteria i.e. Staphylococcus hominis A9, which is derived from healthy human skin that can treat atopic dermatitis. Staphylococcus aureus usually colonizes patients with atopic dermatitis and makes the disease worse by promoting inflammation. The current study is focusing on evaluating the safety and the mechanisms of action of Staphylococcus hominis A9 (ShA9), as a topical therapy for atopic dermatitis.
