Industry Outlook

The neurotrophic keratitis market is set to highlight rapid growth at a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.2% during the forecast period from 2025 to 2033. Neurotrophic keratitis is an orphan disease which is primarily caused due to the damage of the fifth cranial nerve from the trigeminal nucleus to the nerve endings preset in the eye corneal region. Traditional therapies are employed to suppress the clinical manifestation occurring in different stages of the disease. Currently RGN-259 developed by ReGenTree, LLC. is in the phase III clinical trial study for the treatment of neurotrophic keratitis.

"Recent EMA approval of Oxervate and priority review designation approved by the USFDA will popularize the recombinant human nerve growth factor during the forecast period"

Neurotrophic keratitis is a rare degenerative disease which results I loss of corneal sensation and dampens its healing process. The global prevalence rate of neurotrophic keratitis is reported to be 5 per 10,000 individuals. The treatment options adopted for neurotrophic keratitis depends upon the severity and stage of the disease. Artificial tears are prescribed for all the stages due to its ability to provide wetness and lubrication to the corneal surface and ensure cleanliness. Topical antibiotics are majorly prescribed during the stage 2 of the disease for prophylactic treatment of infection. Despite pharmacological treatment and in stage 3 of the disease surgical interventions such as Tarsorraphy and amniotic membrane transplantation is employed to heal corneal ulceration. The recent approval of Oxervate by EMA and priority review designation approved by the USFDA will popularize the utilization of recombinant human nerve growth factor for the treatment of neurotrophic keratitis during the forecast period.
