Plasma Therapy Market Analysis

ID: MRFR//9249-HCR | 120 Pages | Author: Rahul Gotadki| November 2024

The changing landscape of medical practices coupled with an ongoing quest for innovative curative solutions are among the factors that define dynamics prevailing within the Plasma Therapy industry. Often known as convalescent plasma therapy, it refers to using blood serum from those who have been cured of certain infections to treat others. One primary driver behind some developments in this field relates to an urgent call for alternative therapeutic approaches that can cure, especially during pandemics, epidemics, etc. It gained popularity following its effectiveness against numerous viral infections, including the Covid-19 pandemic. Plasma therapy entails the extraction of plasma from recovered persons and reintroduction of it into patients with the disease in order to facilitate an immune response. This accelerated research and adoption of plasma therapy as a potential therapeutic intervention, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Market dynamics are shaped by research and clinical trials. The scientific community's investigation into various conditions where plasma therapy can be used safely has contributed to this changing landscape. Regulatory approvals and guidelines influence market dynamics. Like any other medical intervention, plasma therapy undergoes regulatory scrutiny to ensure its safety and efficacy. Approval by regulatory bodies for specific indications is a significant determinant of market dynamics because it gives the green light for their use within healthcare settings. Another influence on market dynamics is the availability and accessibility of plasma therapy. An effort to establish a strong infrastructure for collecting, processing, and distributing plasma affects how widely this kind of treatment is embraced across care systems. This involves engagement among health organizations, blood banks, and scientific research groups, hence creating a full-range system that supports the provision of convalescent plasma for curative purposes.
Collaborations and partnerships mark the competition in the plasma therapy market. It is through cooperation between research institutions, pharmaceutical companies, and healthcare organizations that they share their resources and expertise. Again, public awareness and perception also affect market dynamics. The circulation of information on successful cases of plasma therapy treatment of certain diseases increases the interest and demand of patients. There is, therefore, a need for effective communication regarding benefits and limitations, as well as ongoing research on plasma therapy, to influence views about it among health experts with regard to its adoption as a treatment option. Also worth noting is that economic considerations within this field impact market dynamics. Thus, affordability coupled with the cost-effectiveness of using plasma therapies influences their widespread use and application as treatment options. This has led healthcare providers to evaluate whether or not it would be economically viable to adopt plasma therapy into their mainstream medical practices, thus impacting its global inclusion in health systems.

COVID-19 Analysis


The COVID-19 pandemic outbreak, along with lockdowns imposed by governments to manage the spread of the disease, impacted several industries. The rise in infected patients impacted the management of hospitals because of its limited staff and resources in comparison to the sudden increase in the number of infected patients; this caused delayed medical procedures and surgeries. The non-emergency medical procedure was delayed, and emergency procedures that would have affected patients or could have caused loss of life if not carried out were prioritized.


The COVID-19 pandemic applied additional stress on the plasma supply. Companies, suppliers, and business owners of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy products in Asian economies were affected by the sudden rise in COVID-19 patients. The middle- and low-income countries had to face challenges due to the lack of health infrastructures and regulations imposed by the governments on industries and suppliers. During pandemic, plasma therapy was proposed for the treatment because of the absence of vaccines, other specific drugs, and treatment.


Plasma Therapy Market Trends 


Drivers



  • Rise in COVID-19 cases around the globe

    • COVID-19 is a disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) virus. It is a new disease with a lack of knowledge and effective treatments. The plasma of a person who has recovered from COVID-19 is used as a potential cure for the virus. The plasma is the acellular component of blood that contains antibodies and the antibodies that precisely recognize SARS-CoV-2. When the plasma was transfused into patients infected with SARS-CoV-2, it showed a positive response against the virus. This boosted plasma therapy and its use in the treatment of the inclining cases in the world.





  • Rising awareness among the population regarding the diseases and potential treatment options


Market Restraints



  • High cost of plasma therapy

    • The high cost of plasma therapy is expected to hinder the market growth. The price of plasma extraction from the blood and its storage of extracted plasma are restricting the market growth. The price of therapy has restricted its use in underdeveloped and developing regions. Since the common person is not able to afford the therapy, this is one of the key factors restricting market growth.




Technology Analysis


Plasma therapy performs the replacement of deficient or missing proteins found in plasma to enable its receivers to live healthier and disorder-free lives.
