Hyperphosphatemia Market

  • The total hyperphosphatemia market size in the 7MM was ~USD 4,000 million in 2023. An increase in hyperphosphatemia market size is expected due to the rise in the diagnosed prevalence of CKD, thereby increasing the hyperphosphatemia patient pool.
  • Hyperphosphatemia is a condition characterized by an increase in serum phosphate level above 4.5 mg/100 mL. The condition usually occurs due to a decrement in renal function, commonly among chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients, in which phosphate levels become abnormally high.
  • In the 7MM, the United States had the highest prevalent cases, approximately 50% of the total prevalent pool in 2023.
  • The market is anticipated to witness a substantial positive shift owing to better uptake of existing drugs, the expected market launch of one-time gene therapies, and raised awareness.
  • In 2023, the total number of prevalent cases of ESRD patients on dialysis in the United States was ~600,000, which as per DelveInsight’s estimates, is likely to increase in the forecasted period.
  • FDA approved phosphate binder therapies for the treatment of the condition includes KIKLIN, AURYXIA/ RIONA and VELPHORO/ P-TOL.
  • The United States accounts for the largest market size of Hyperphosphatemia, in comparison to EU4 (Germany, Spain, Italy, France), the United Kingdom, and Japan.
  • In October 2023, XPHOZAH received approval from the US FDA to control serum phosphate in adult chronic kidney disease patients who are on dialysis but can’t tolerate or have an inadequate response to treatment with a phosphate binder. In November 2023, the drug was granted Orphan Drug Designation for treating pediatric hyperphosphatemia.
  • Oxylanthanum Carbonate (OLC), is emerging therapy offer promising potential for effectively treating the condition.

Hyperphosphatemia Treatment Market

Hyperphosphatemia Overview, Country-Specific Treatment Guidelines and Diagnosis

Hyperphosphatemia typically lacks noticeable symptoms, often manifesting as uremic symptoms like fatigue, shortness of breath, and nausea. Elevated phosphate levels can lead to mineral and bone disorders, including calcification. It often arises from kidney disease but can also be linked to conditions like uncontrolled diabetes, hypoparathyroidism, or excessive phosphate intake.

The condition is diagnosed by serum phosphate measurement with specific blood tests that measure the levels of phosphate, calcium, magnesium, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, Vitamin D and parathyroid hormone (PTH). It is important to diagnose and find the underlying cause of hyperphosphatemia to treat and restore normal phosphate metabolism.

Further details related to country-based variations in diagnosis are provided in the report

Hyperphosphatemia Treatment

Treatment for hyperphosphatemia depends on the underlying condition. For people with kidney disease, a combination of diet and medication is used to keep phosphate levels under control.  In patients with good renal function, renal phosphate excretion can be increased through extracellular volume expansion by saline infusion and diuretics. If renal function is impaired, it is an indication for hemodialysis. Several treatment strategies that can be employed to tackle hyperphosphatemia include dietary restriction, phosphate binders (aluminum-based agents, calcium-based binders, magnesium carbonate, sevelamer, lanthanum carbonate, ferric citrate and sucroferric oxyhydroxide), drugs targeting intestinal phosphate transporters (tenapanor, nicotinic acid and nicotinamide), renal replacement therapies (peritoneal and hemodialysis) and management of secondary hyperparathyroidism.

Total Prevalent Cases of Hyperphosphatemia in the 7MM

  • Highest prevalent cases of Hyperphosphatemia in the 7MM was accounted by US ~500,000 cases in 2023.
  • Among EU4 and the UK, Germany accounted for the highest prevalent cases ~56,000 cases in 2023.
  • In 2023, Japan contributed second highest prevalent cases among 7MM ~300,000 cases.

Marketed Hyperphosphatemia Drugs

VELPHORO/P-TAL: FRESENIUS MEDICAL CARE RENAL PHARMACEUTICALS

VELPHORO (polynuclear iron (III)–oxyhydroxide, sucroferric oxyhydroxide), developed by Vifor Pharma, received marketing authorization valid throughout Europe in August 2014, and the US FDA approved it in 2013. Marketed as P-TOL, in 2018, Kissei acquired exclusive development and marketing rights for P-TOL in Japan from Vifor Fresenius Medical Care Renal Pharma, and launched the drug in 2018 in Japan for the treatment of hyperphosphatemia. Launched in 30 countries, over 100,000 patients are now estimated to benefit from VELPHORO on a yearly basis.

KIKLIN: Astellas pharma

KIKLIN (bixalomer) launched by Astellas Pharma are amine-functional polymers which decrease the serum phosphorus concentration by binding to phosphate in the gastrointestinal tract, thus inhibiting absorption of phosphate into the human body. The drug was approved initially in 2012 for the treatment of hyperphosphatemia in patients on dialysis with chronic kidney disease and later the label was expanded in 2016 for the indication of treatment of hyperphosphatemia in patients with chronic kidney disease.

Emerging Hyperphosphatemia Drugs

Oxylanthanum Carbonate (OLC): Unicycive Therapeutics

Oxylanthanum carbonate (OLC) is an investigational phosphate binding agent developed by Unicycive Therapeutics for treating hyperphosphatemia in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Utilizing proprietary nanoparticle technology, OLC aims to provide a more effective and patient-friendly alternative to existing treatments by reducing the pill burden, allowing patients to swallow smaller tablets rather than chew larger ones. 

The drug has completed Phase II clinical trials, demonstrating favorable safety and tolerability profiles, and Unicycive plans to file a New Drug Application (NDA) with the FDA under the 505(b) (2) regulatory pathway. The global market for hyperphosphatemia treatments is projected to exceed $2.5 billion, highlighting the significant unmet need for effective therapies in this area.

KOL Views

United States

"Even though less number of Velphoro pills need to be taken daily when compared to other phosphate binders, the cost of the drug is quite high, this is what I have heard from few physicians. However, more patients have started taking this drug as around 5-10% of dialysis patients are on Velphoro. Velphoro’s acceptance is still being questioned, however I am sure its efficacy is great, and we need more such therapies at a lower cost that can work wonders for this target pool. This market is in need of therapies that can increase the adherence on a daily basis along with lowering the phosphate levels to the desired value.”

Germany

"In several European countries such as Germany and the UK calcium-based PBs are preferred by a lot of physicians. However, the scenario is not the same in the United States where physicians are shifting more towards non-calcium based PBs. If we compare the pill burden among the countries, I think it is very difficult to analyze as it remains quite similar in Europe and the United States, both the countries have Velphoro launched, how good the drug is doing is important to understand.”

Japan

“See, around 8–12 PBs per day are prescribed to dialysis patients in Japan as majority of the advanced CKD patients do suffer from hyperphosphatemia and a major pill  burden comprises of PBs.  Sevelamer hydrochloride and Ca-containing binders are the majorly recommended PBs in Japan. I am not much aware about the scenario in the European countries but I know that there is a huge unmet need in china as well as in Taiwan, the physicians in these countries are prescribing too many medications an trust me they do not have any other option, looking for alternative is a task, which in turn lowers the compliance.”
