Global Transplantation Market Size

Transplantation Market Analysis

The Transplantation Market is expected to register a CAGR of 9.9% during the forecast period (2022-2027).

A major factor driving market growth is the rising demand for novel tissue transplantation products and organ transplantation to treat organ failure. According to the study published in Current Transplantation Reports, titled 'Diagnostic Testing of COVID-19 in Solid Organ Transplantation: Current Clinical Application and Future Strategies' in October 2020, multiple elements of solid organ transplantation have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, including donor and recipient appropriateness, as well as infection and transmission prevention following transplantation. Moreover, according to the study titled "Epidemiology of Organ Failure Before and During COVID-19 Pandemic Surge Conditions," published in the American Journal of Critical Care in May 2022, during the pandemic, renal failure was the most common type of organ failure at admission and respiratory failure was the most common type of hospital-onset organ failure. The SARS-CoV-2-positive group showed a 231% increase in respiratory failure compared with the pre-pandemic group. Thus, with increasing organ failure, the demand for transplantation increases over the forecast period.

Moreover, the global demand for tissue and organ transplantation, particularly kidney, heart, liver, and lung transplantation, is extremely high. Organ failure is caused by a variety of factors, including poor dietary habits, excessive alcohol consumption, a lack of exercise, and drug abuse. As a result, transplantation product demand is expected to increase shortly. The rising donation of organs is one of the biggest contributors to the growth of the market studied. According to the data published by the Association of Organ Procurement Organizations (AOPO) in January 2021, more than 12,500 people donated one or more organs in 2020, up 6% from the previous year. The number of organs donated from dead donors increased to over 36,500 in 2020, an increase of almost 2% year over year. For the seventh year in a running, these retrieved organs saved more than 33,000 lives, exceeding the previous year's totals. There were also notable increases in Donation after Circulatory Death (DCD) contributions, which totaled more than 3,000 donors, up 18% year over year.

Furthermore, rising in the prevalence of chronic diseases such as cancer and heart and kidney diseases is propelling the growth of the market. For Instance, in March 2020, as per data released on World Kidney Day, a joint initiative of the International Society of Nephrology (ISN) and the International Federation of Kidney Foundations (IFKF), kidney disease affected around 850 million people globally. In addition, as per the Globocan 2020 report published by Global Cancer Observatory, which estimated the incidence and mortality of 36 cancer in 185 countries globally, there were an estimated 19,292,789 new cases of cancer diagnosed in 2020, and about 9,958,133 people died due to cancer.

Additionally, product launches by the key market players, as well as various strategies adopted by the market players such as mergers and acquisitions, are anticipated to boost the market over the forecast period. For Instance, in June 2021, transplant diagnostics company CareDx acquired New York-based Transplant Hero, the developer of a smartphone app that's aimed at supporting the needs of transplant patients. As a result of such initiatives by key market players, the transplantation product becomes more accessible, boosting the market growth.

Thus, all aforementioned factors are anticipated to boost the market over the forecast period. However, the shortage of organ donors and ethical and cultural issues restraint the market over the forecast period,
