Usher syndrome is a genetic disorder that affects both hearing and vision, often resulting in deafness or hearing loss, along with a progressive eye condition known as retinitis pigmentosa (RP). It is the leading cause of combined deaf-blindness and follows an autosomal recessive inheritance pattern.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The main categories in the Usher syndrome market are type 1, type 2, type 3, and other types. Type 1 Usher syndrome is the most severe form, characterized by profound deafness from birth, significant balance issues, and early-onset vision loss due to retinitis pigmentosa (RP). Treatment options include devices, drugs, therapy, and other methods. Diagnostic tools include electroretinograms, optical coherence tomography, video hysterography, audiology, genetic testing, and other assessments. Distribution channels include hospital pharmacies, retail pharmacies, and other outlets. End-users of these treatments include hospitals, specialty clinics, and other healthcare settings.
The usher syndrome market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides usher syndrome market statistics, including usher syndrome industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with an usher syndrome market share, detailed usher syndrome market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the usher syndrome industry. This usher syndrome market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The usher syndrome market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2.13 billion in 2024 to $2.25 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.0%. The growth observed during the historic period can be attributed to the increasing prevalence of genetic disorders, a growing demand for minimally invasive surgeries, a rise in inherited disorders, more product approvals, and the expansion of government initiatives.
The usher syndrome market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.81 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.7%. The growth projected during the forecast period can be attributed to the increasing use of cochlear implants, a rise in gene mutations, growing healthcare expenditure, the increasing popularity of ophthalmological rehabilitation, and a greater adoption of audiological rehabilitation. Key trends during this period include the development of vaccines, advancements in hearing aids, innovations in medical devices, improvements in surgical techniques, and progress in gene therapies.
The growing prevalence of inherited disorders is expected to drive the expansion of the Usher syndrome market. Inherited disorders are genetic conditions passed from parents to their offspring through DNA, often due to mutations in one or more genes. The rise in inherited disorders is linked to increasing parental age, which leads to a higher incidence of genetic conditions in newborns. Usher syndrome, a genetic disorder, requires early diagnosis, specialized care, and targeted treatments. The growing awareness and screening for genetic conditions are resulting in more cases of Usher syndrome being identified, thereby increasing the demand for diagnostic tests, genetic counseling, and therapeutic interventions. For example, in November 2022, the United Kingdom Hemophilia Centre Doctors Organization reported an increase in new registrations for individuals aged 2 years and older with severe hemophilia A, rising from 16 in 2021 to 19 in 2022. Therefore, the rising prevalence of inherited disorders is expected to drive the growth of the Usher syndrome market.
Leading companies in the Usher syndrome market are focusing on clinical studies to develop gene therapies and innovative treatments aimed at slowing or reversing vision and hearing loss. These clinical studies seek to improve early diagnosis, enhance assistive technologies, and explore potential drug-based interventions for more effective disease management. For instance, in October 2024, AAVantgarde Bio, an Italy-based biotechnology company, launched the LUCE-1 trial, a Phase I/II clinical study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of its gene therapy, AAVB-081, for treating retinitis pigmentosa associated with Usher Syndrome type 1B (USH1B). The trial is designed to assess the safety and tolerability of AAVB-081, which delivers a functional copy of the MYO7A gene, essential for retinal health.
In December 2023, Laboratoires Thea, a France-based pharmaceutical company, acquired sepofarsen and ultevursen from ProQR Therapeutics for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition aims to further the clinical development of sepofarsen and ultevursen for treating inherited retinal diseases such as LCA10 and Usher syndrome 2A. ProQR Therapeutics NV, a biotechnology company based in the Netherlands, focuses on developing treatments for Usher syndrome type 2. This acquisition will enable Laboratoires Thea to advance these therapies, enhancing the potential treatment options for late-stage eye diseases.
