Spinal Muscular Atrophy Market: Drivers, Regional Analysis, and Competitive Landscape 2026

Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a rare, genetically inherited neuromuscular condition. The disease causes loss of movement and progressive muscle weakness due to muscle wasting (atrophy). The disease is divided into four subtypes (1 to 4) on the basis of the age of onset. SMA type 1 (SMA1) is the most severe form and most common genetic cause of death among infants. Various drugs are available in the market to treat the symptoms of the diseases, however, only one drug is approved for the treatment of SMA so far. Muscle relaxants such as tizanidine, baclofen, and the benzodiazepines can reduce spasticity. Excessive saliva can be treated with glycopyolate, amitriptyline, and atropine or by botulinum injections into the salivary glands. Antidepressants can be helpful in treating depression. Botulinum toxin can also be used to treat drooling or jaw spasms.

Market Dynamics

Major factors driving growth of the spinal muscular atrophy market includes increasing number of clinical trials and rising government support for R&D. Biotechnology and biopharmaceutical companies are working towards development of effective therapies to treat spinal muscular atrophy. For instance, in 2016, the U.S. FDA approved Spinraza (nusinersen) drug from Biogen for the treatment of SMA. Spinraza targets the underlying defect in SMA, so it can help prevent, delay, or even reverse the symptoms.

However, its common side effects include higher risk of constipation and respiratory tract infection along with minimal risk of kidney problems and bleeding. Moreover, the cost of research for development of new therapy is also high. With the advancements of drug in the pipeline, its expense and time for development also increases. According to Cure SMA, it can take over 15 years and US$ 100 million for a single drug candidate to reach FDA approval. These factors make research challenging particularly for a disease such as SMA. These factors are expected to hinder growth of the market.
