Cytokine release syndrome (CRS) treatment refers to medical interventions aimed at managing and mitigating the severe inflammatory response triggered by cytokine release, which can occur during certain therapies such as CAR-T cell treatments. These treatments help control symptoms, reduce inflammation, and improve patient outcomes during intense cytokine reactions.
The main types of drugs used in cytokine release syndrome treatments include corticosteroids, monoclonal antibodies, and other immunosuppressants. Corticosteroids are drugs that help reduce inflammation by mimicking the effects of hormones produced by the adrenal glands, which regulate inflammation and the immune system. The administration types of corticosteroids include intravenous, subcutaneous, and oral, and they are applied in oncological treatments, autoimmune disorders, and other conditions. The end users of these treatments include hospitals, specialty clinics, and home care settings.
Tariffs are influencing the cytokine release syndrome treatment market by increasing costs of imported biologics, monoclonal antibodies, active pharmaceutical ingredients, and sterile drug delivery systems. Oncology centers in North America and Europe are most affected due to reliance on imported biologic therapies, while Asia-Pacific faces higher treatment costs linked to limited domestic production. These tariffs are increasing therapy costs and impacting reimbursement dynamics. However, they are also encouraging local biologics manufacturing, regional clinical supply chains, and investment in domestic immunotherapy production capabilities.
The cytokine release syndrome treatment market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides cytokine release syndrome treatment market statistics, including cytokine release syndrome treatment industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a cytokine release syndrome treatment market share, detailed cytokine release syndrome treatment market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the cytokine release syndrome treatment industry. This cytokine release syndrome treatment 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 cytokine release syndrome treatment market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $1.42 billion in 2025 to $1.61 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.6%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth in advanced immunotherapy treatments, expansion of car-t cell therapy adoption, availability of corticosteroids for immune modulation, increased clinical awareness of cytokine storms, improvements in critical care infrastructure.
The cytokine release syndrome treatment market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.66 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.3%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing use of next-generation immunotherapies, rising investments in cytokine modulation research, expansion of oncology treatment centers, growing focus on personalized immune management, development of novel anti-inflammatory biologics. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing use of il-6 and il-1 targeted therapies, rising adoption of monoclonal antibodies for crs management, expansion of hospital-based crs treatment protocols, growing integration of early diagnostic monitoring, improved supportive care management strategies.
The increasing prevalence of cancer treatments is expected to drive the growth of the cytokine release syndrome (CRS) treatment market. This is due to the rising global incidence of cancer and advancements in diagnostic technologies, which enable earlier detection and offer a broader range of treatment options. Improved survival rates and expanded healthcare access further contribute to the demand for these therapies. CRS treatment involves supportive care, anti-cytokine therapies, and continuous monitoring to manage symptoms and mitigate the inflammatory response caused by cancer treatments. For instance, in May 2024, the National Health Service (NHS) in the UK reported that almost 340,000 people received their first cancer treatment between April 2023 and March 2024. Additionally, the number of urgent suspected cancer referrals hit a new record high in March 2024, with over 12,500 patients seen per working day. Therefore, the increasing prevalence of cancer treatments is driving growth in the CRS treatment market.
Major companies in the CRS treatment market are advancing drug delivery technologies, such as intravenous infusion, to improve treatment precision, reduce side effects, and enhance patient outcomes. Intravenous infusion enables fast and accurate drug administration into the bloodstream, ensuring prompt therapeutic action. For example, in September 2023, Chugai Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. received approval from the Ministry of Health, Labor, and Welfare in Japan for Actemra (tocilizumab), an anti-IL-6 receptor monoclonal antibody, to treat CRS induced by various cancer therapies. Actemra Intravenous Infusion is now an approved treatment for CRS resulting from cancer therapies beyond tumor-specific T-cell infusion therapy.
In March 2024, Merck & Co. Inc. acquired Harpoon Therapeutics for $680 million to expand its portfolio of cancer therapies, particularly focusing on T-cell engagers. Harpoon's lead candidate, MK-6070 (formerly HPN328), targets delta-like ligand 3 (DLL3), a protein linked to small cell lung cancer and neuroendocrine tumors. Harpoon Therapeutics specializes in TriTAC-XR, designed for CRS treatment.
