The avonex market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2,439.2 million in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rise in multiple sclerosis (MS) prevalence, increasing preference for oral medications, rising patient support expectations, increasing clinical evidence supporting efficacy, increasing market share of injectable alternatives. Major trends in the forecast period include advanced data analytics, demand for biological indicators, utilization of 3D bioprinting, integration of immunomodulatory technology, use of nanotechnology.
The increasing prevalence of multiple sclerosis (MS) is expected to drive the growth of the avonex market. MS is a chronic autoimmune disease where the immune system attacks the protective myelin sheath surrounding nerve fibers in the central nervous system, causing disruptions in brain-body communication. The rise in MS cases can be attributed to improved diagnostic capabilities, environmental factors such as vitamin D deficiency, genetic predisposition, and changes in lifestyle and migration patterns. Avonex is critical in managing MS by reducing inflammation, decreasing relapse frequency, and slowing physical disability progression through immune system modulation. For example, a report published by the Multiple Sclerosis Trust in May 2024 revealed a nearly 13% increase in the number of people living with MS in the UK, with a 15% rise in England, 10% in Scotland, 9% in Northern Ireland, and 8% in Wales. This growing prevalence underscores the rising demand for avonex in managing MS, fueling market growth.
A key trend in the avonex market is the development of strategic partnerships aimed at enhancing treatment options, patient outcomes, and chronic disease management. Strategic partnerships allow organizations to combine strengths, resources, and expertise to achieve mutual goals and improve competitive advantage. For instance, in June 2022, Biogen Inc., the US-based manufacturer of Avonex (interferon beta-1a), collaborated with Happify Health to create an AI-powered digital solution. This platform enhances patient education and engagement for individuals living with MS, offering tools to manage care, access expert consultations, and explore treatment options while fostering a supportive community.
In November 2024, Vanguard Group Inc., a US-based investment firm, acquired shares in Biogen Inc. for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition reflects Vanguard's strategy to diversify its investment portfolio and support companies with strong growth potential and innovative product pipelines, further strengthening Biogen's position in the Avonex market.
