Moreover, surge in R&D funding by private and public organizations, increasing number of the initiatives undertaken by various non-profit organizations, and the presence of favourable reimbursement policies are few of the crucial reasons expected to drive market in the coming years.

As per the data published by the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (CFF), the incidence of such hereditary disorders is continuously growing. In the U.S., 2015, there were almost 28,983 patients as compared to 26,366 patients in the year 2010. Swelling year-on-year growth in number of patient results in surging demand for the effective and efficient CF therapeutics. Few of the commercially obtainable accepted drug class are CF Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) modulators, bronchodilators, mucolytic, anti-infective, antibiotics (oral, inhaled, or parental feeding formulae), anti-inflammatory drugs, and various pancreatic enzyme supplements.

Segment Overview

Based on drug class, the market is characterized into mucolytics, pancreatic enzyme supplements, bronchodilators, and the CFTR modulators. The main consideration in treatment of the CF is maintaining lung function while controlling the respiratory infection and also clearing airways of the mucus, managing nutritional therapy, and regulating the complications.
Rising number of the drug compositions in pipeline of key players is one of pivotal factors likely to impel the market growth. Furthermore, increasing number of the clinical trials to increase its target patient base with existing drug portfolio is amongst some of drivers for the market. Rising R&D activities are anticipated to driving the market growth. Some of pipelined drugs are (VX-445 + tezacaftor + ivacaftor); AZD-5634; PTI-428; QR-010; and POL-6014.

Regional Overview
