The Transthyretin Amyloidosis Market is a critical sector within healthcare dedicated to addressing a rare and progressive disorder characterized by the deposition of abnormal transthyretin protein in various tissues, leading to organ dysfunction. This market encompasses diagnostic tools, disease-modifying therapies, and supportive care measures for individuals affected by transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR). Major drivers include a growing understanding of the disease, advancements in diagnostic techniques such as genetic testing and imaging, and the development of targeted therapies designed to stabilize or reduce the production of abnormal transthyretin protein.
The market's growth is propelled by increasing awareness, improved patient identification, and ongoing research aimed at unraveling the complex mechanisms underlying ATTR. Challenges involve the rarity and heterogeneity of the disease, necessitating a multidisciplinary approach for accurate diagnosis and management. Geographically, North America and Europe lead in market share due to well-established healthcare infrastructure and heightened awareness, while efforts are underway to enhance awareness and access to care in other regions. As the understanding of transthyretin amyloidosis deepens and therapeutic innovations continue, the market endeavors to provide effective solutions for patients grappling with this challenging and often life-threatening condition.
Market Research Future (MRFR) report on the global transthyretin (TTR) amyloidosis market (2018-2023) analyzes COVID-19 on the main factors that drive market growth. The study addresses competitors in the market and global market trends, offering a detailed summary of both growth factors and constraints, which may have a direct or indirect effect on the outlook of the industry during the forecast period.
Transthyretin (TTR) amyloidosis market is a medical disorder characterized by the build-up of irregular protein deposits called amyloid (amyloidosis) in the body's organs and tissues. It primarily affects the peripheral neuropathic or autonomic neuropathic system and the cardiac system. The cardiac type of transthyretin (TTR) amyloidosis puts patients at risk of arrhythmia, cardiomegaly, and orthostatic hypertension.
Market Dynamics
The global ATTR market is expected to show robust growth during the forecast period due to the probability of an increase in the number of ATTR drug launches, an increase in the Afro-American population as they are genetically susceptible to amyloidosis, an increase in people's health awareness and the average income of individuals.
Nevertheless, the growth of this market can be hampered by strict regulatory policies, the high cost of ATTR drugs, the inaccurate diagnosis of ATTR disorders, and clinical trials' limitations. Lack of information on this condition and inadequacy of advanced diagnostic methods in middle-income countries are significant market barriers.
Key Players
Some of the key players identified by MRFR in this market are transthyretin (TTR) amyloidosis market players Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, Pfizer, Merck, Arcturus Therapeutics, Ionis Pharmaceuticals Inc., Corino Therapeutics Inc, Proclara Bioscience

Regional Analysis
By region, the global market for transthyretin (TTR) amyloidosis has been segmented into the Americas, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Middle East and Africa.
The Americas leads the market for transthyretin amyloidosis (TTR) due to a growing prevalence of amyloidosis among adults and the elderly and a rising geriatric population, which is a significant cause for this disease. For example, according to a study released by ASCO Journal in 2016, approximately 4,000 people develop amyloidosis per year in the United States. As a result, this growing patient pool will fuel demand growth during the forecast period. In addition, factors such as increasing government initiatives and support for research, the advancement of advanced medical treatment options, and the growing usage of technologically advanced medical diagnostic devices are likely to propel the market. The presence of pharmaceutical giants such as Pfizer, Merck, etc. is also driving market growth in this region.
Europe is the second-largest market and has a fair share of the overall market for transthyretin (TTR) amyloidosis. The European market is expected to show significant growth during the forecast period due to main factors such as the availability of advanced treatment facilities, increased spending on healthcare, as well as an increasing need for better healthcare infrastructure, and government initiatives to reform health care. Approximately 60 new cases of transthyretin (TTR) amyloidosis are recorded annually in the United Kingdom, and the age-specific incidence rate is between 5.1 and 12.8 per million per year. In addition, the growing demand for medical devices and the capability of people to afford diagnostics contribute to the industry's growth. However, the inefficiency of treatment and the incorrect diagnosis is hindering the growth of the market in this area.
The Asia Pacific is anticipated to be the fastest-growing region. According to a study published by the United Nations in 2015, the number of older adults aged 60 years or older in the world is expected to rise by 56% between 2015 and 2030, of which 66% of the elderly reside in the Asia Pacific region. It makes the region vulnerable to transthyretin (TTR) amyloidosis as the chances of its occurrence increase with rising age. Due to a broad patient population, rapid adoption of healthcare technologies, government initiatives to enhance healthcare quality, and availability of favorable reimbursement and insurance policies, market growth will accelerate throughout the forecast period. In addition, major players such as Pfizer, Merck, etc. have developed their regional headquarters and manufacturing facilities in countries like Singapore, China, Japan, Korea, and Australia. As a result, the growth curve of the in transthyretin (TTR) amyloidosis market will show a positive growth pattern.
The Middle East and Africa are anticipated to exhibit the lowest growth in the market due to some key factors such as dearth of awareness and limited access and availability of treatment facilities. In the Middle East, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates are the major markets due to the development of the healthcare sector and the increasing availability of specialized care centers. However, the market may show steady growth due to the genetic vulnerability of Africans to transthyretin amyloidosis and government initiatives to augment the quality of healthcare in the region.
