Neuromuscular disease market poised for rapid growth

16 January 2025

The global market for neuromuscular disease therapeutics is projected to expand by $13.7 billion from 2025 to 2029, according to a report by Technavio.

Neuromuscular diseases, which include conditions like amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), myasthenia gravis, and muscular dystrophies, affect the nervous system's ability to control muscles.

These conditions are often severe and chronic, requiring long-term care and, in some cases, life-saving interventions. Treatments like Spinraza (nusinersen) for SMA have changed the landscape, but come with significant financial challenges, with initial doses costing $750,000 and annual maintenance at $375,000.
