Moreover, the prevalence of cancer cases at the global level is showcasing the need for suitable drug medication. According to the pharmaceutical company Johnson & Johnson, the number of cases of blood cancer in the world has risen by more than 125% since 1990. There will be a significant demand for lenalidomide in the foreseeable future, as this trend continues further.
However, a limited number of companies having patent rights to produce lenalidomide due to the stringent regulations and control over lenalidomide quantity is expected to cause supply chain disruptions in the world.
The rising incidence of multiple myeloma
The rising penetration of multiple myeloma cases among the global population is boosting the demand for lenalidomide. The growing environmental pollution with increasing radiation, and release of harmful chemicals from industrial activities are leading factors causing myeloma. According to the available data, around 35,730 adults in the United States are expected to suffer from multiple myeloma in 2023. This will certainly drive the demand for lenalidomide.
The increasing research studies on developing new ways of having lenalidomide
Pharmaceutical firms and researchers are highly interested in exploring new ways of consuming lenalidomide, apart from oral. In January 2024, Starton Therapeutics announced the positive results of its STAR-LLD Phase 1b clinical trials for multiple myeloma. It tested the effectiveness of administration of low-dose lenalidomide through subcutaneous drugs along with bortezomib and dexamethasone. The results of the study are expected to come in the third quarter of 2024. This ongoing research initiatives are expected to drive new growth opportunities for the lenalidomide market.
Higher costs of drug development
The increasing knowledge about lenalidomide side-effects, such as an irregular heartbeat, thrombosis, chest pain, bleeding gums, and more, are expected to negatively impact the growth of lenalidomide during the forecast timeframe. Furthermore, the higher initial costs of drug development and competition from generic medicines are expected to hinder lenalidomide market growth in the long run.

10mg segment is expected to witness the highest growth during the forecast period
The 10mg segment is likely to grow at a higher CAGR during the study period, primarily driven by its flexibility in dosage. In some cases, doctors are required to test the patient's condition for cancer and are likely to initially offer a lower dose to avoid overdose consequences. This is boosting the consumption of 10mg dose myeloma. Furthermore, the emergence of combination therapies in the marketplace and ongoing research activities are positively driving segmental growth, as this task necessitates the need for lower-dose drugs.
The 15-mg segment led the industry market with optimal revenue share in 2023, largely attributable to its ability to assist doctors in planning optimized treatment dosages for patients.
Multiple Myeloma segment accounted for the largest market share in 2023
The multiple myeloma segment accounted for the largest market share in 2023 and is expected to enhance its market position throughout the study period. The rising prevalence of cancer cases, primarily multiple myeloma, and the superior performance of lenalidomide in treating these diseases are boosting lenalidomide market growth. A 2023 study published in Spandidos publications reviewed the potential capability of this drug in cancer myeloma treatment.
Hospital segment held the significant market revenue share in 2023
The hospital segment held a significant market share in revenue in 2023, which is highly accelerated due to the continuous rise in the number of cancer patients taking admissions. The increased awareness about cancer, primarily blood cancer, is driving doctor consultations and boosting demand for lenalidomide by healthcare providers.
Capsule segment witnessed a dominant share in the global market in 2023
The capsule segment registered the dominant share in the world market in 2023 and is projected to continue its growth trajectory over the study period. The dosage mostly depends on its formulation, doctor consultation, available medication, and process of production. However, most of the major players are offering capsules due to their higher solubility. The increased accessibility of lenalidomide capsules is a driving factor in this segmental growth.
North America region registered the largest share of the global market in 2023
The North America region held the dominant share in 2023. The growth of the market can be largely attributed to the presence of larger players in the lenalidomide market. For instance, in September 2022, Dr. Reddy Laboratories Ltd. introduced Revlimid capsules (lenalidomide)in the United States after receiving approval from US Food and Drug Administration (USFDA). The increasing number of companies entering this market is one of the major factors contributing to the larger market share in the global market.
The Asia Pacific region is expected to be the fastest growing region with a higher CAGR during the forecast period, owing to the growing prevalence of cancer cases in the region. Cancer is one of the major causes of mortality in the world, with around ten million deaths. As per WHO South-East region report, there are estimated 2.2 million new cancer cases and 1.4 million cancer-related death rates, contributing to more than 1 in 10 deaths in the region. There will be significant demand potential in the future, with the growing cancer cases in the region.
Strategic expansion activities to drive the competition
The lenalidomide market is moderately competitive. The rising strategic collaborations, expansion activities, and settlements in patent licensing among the major players are anticipated to witness significant growth during the forecast timeframe. For instance, in September 2022, Zydus unveiled lenalidomide capsules in the United States.
