Chronic liver disease therapeutics encompasses the treatments and interventions designed to manage long-term liver conditions. These therapies aim to slow disease progression, alleviate symptoms, and enhance liver function through the use of medications, lifestyle modifications, and, in some cases, advanced procedures.
The primary treatment types in chronic liver disease therapeutics include antiviral drugs, immunosuppressants, vaccines, immunoglobulins, corticosteroids, targeted therapies, and chemotherapy. Antiviral drugs are specifically formulated to inhibit the replication of viruses in the body, aiding in the treatment and management of viral infections. These therapies address a range of conditions such as hepatitis, autoimmune diseases, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, cancer, and genetic disorders. Distribution channels for these treatments include hospital pharmacies, retail pharmacies, and online pharmacies.
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 sharp rise in U.S. tariffs and the resulting trade tensions in spring 2025 are having a significant impact on the healthcare sector, especially in the supply of essential medical devices, diagnostic equipment, and pharmaceuticals. Hospitals and healthcare providers are grappling with higher costs for imported surgical tools, imaging systems, and consumables like syringes and catheters, many of which have limited domestic substitutes. These escalating expenses are putting pressure on healthcare budgets, prompting some providers to delay equipment upgrades or pass increased costs on to patients. Furthermore, tariffs on raw materials and components are disrupting the manufacturing of vital drugs and devices, leading to supply chain delays. In response, the industry is adopting diversified sourcing strategies, expanding local production where feasible, and pushing for tariff exemptions on critical medical products.
The chronic liver diseases therapeutics market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides chronic liver diseases therapeutics market statistics, including the chronic liver diseases therapeutics industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with the chronic liver diseases therapeutics market share, detailed chronic liver diseases therapeutics market segments, market trends, and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the chronic liver diseases therapeutics industry. This chronic liver diseases therapeutics market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.
The chronic liver diseases therapeutics market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $14.38 billion in 2024 to $15.88 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.4%. The growth in the historical period can raise the incidence of viral hepatitis, increase obesity rates, age the population, grow awareness of liver health, and increase patient access to treatment.
The chronic liver diseases therapeutics market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $23.63 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.5%. The growth in the forecast increased focus on personalized medicine, growing the pipeline of novel therapies, expanding telemedicine and digital health solutions, and rising demand for liver disease prevention programs, as well as the rising incidence of viral hepatitis. Major trends: integration of artificial intelligence in diagnostics, biologics and gene therapies, non-invasive treatment options, combination therapies, and expansion of patient-centric care models.
The forecast of 10.5% growth over the next five years reflects a slight reduction of 0.2% from the previous projection. This reduction is primarily due to the impact of tariffs between the US and other countries. Trade tensions could hinder U.S. gastroenterology by inflating prices of antifibrotic agents and transient elastography devices developed in Canada and South Korea, resulting in delayed cirrhosis interventions and higher hepatology department costs. The effect will also be felt more widely due to reciprocal tariffs and the negative effect on the global economy and trade due to increased trade tensions and restrictions.
The rising consumption of alcohol is expected to drive the growth of the chronic liver disease therapeutics market. Alcohol consumption refers to the intake of ethanol-containing beverages, ranging from moderate to excessive use, which can impact health. The increase in alcohol consumption is attributed to growing social acceptance, higher incomes, and greater accessibility worldwide. Chronic liver disease therapeutics play a crucial role in managing liver damage caused by excessive alcohol intake, slowing disease progression, and enhancing liver function. For example, in June 2024, First Citizens Bank, a US financial institution, reported a 1.2% rise in direct-to-consumer (DTC) wine case sales in 2023 compared to 2022. Additionally, in December 2023, a report published by Kirin Holdings Company Limited, a Japan-based beverage company, indicated that approximately 192.1 million kiloliters of beer were consumed in 2022, marking a 2.9% increase from the previous year. As a result, the rising consumption of alcohol is contributing to the expansion of the chronic liver disease therapeutics market.
Leading companies in the chronic liver disease therapeutics sector are prioritizing the development of advanced innovations, such as RNA therapies, to address genetic and molecular mechanisms, providing more targeted and effective treatment options. RNA therapies are cutting-edge medical treatments that utilize RNA molecules to regulate gene expression or protein production, with the aim of treating or preventing diseases by targeting specific genetic mechanisms. For instance, in May 2022, Ochre Bio, a UK-based biotech company, introduced its 'Liver ICU' research facility at BioLabs@NYULangone, a biopharma incubator in New York City. This advanced facility evaluates the efficacy of next-generation RNA therapeutics using whole human livers maintained on perfusion machines. By utilizing discarded donor livers for research, the facility seeks to accelerate drug development and enhance the accuracy of liver treatment studies by replicating human physiological conditions.
In March 2024, Gilead Sciences Inc., a US-based pharmaceutical company, completed the acquisition of CymaBay Therapeutics Inc. for approximately $4.3 billion. This acquisition is intended to strengthen Gilead Sciences' portfolio in liver disease treatments, with a particular emphasis on non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and other chronic liver conditions. CymaBay Therapeutics Inc. is a US-based company dedicated to developing therapies for liver diseases, including chronic liver conditions.
