Hereditary Hemochromatosis Overview

Hereditary hemochromatosis (HH) is a genetic disorder characterized by excessive absorption of dietary iron, leading to iron overload in the body. This excess iron gets deposited in various organs, primarily the liver, heart, and pancreas, causing damage and potentially leading to serious health issues such as cirrhosis, heart disease, and diabetes. HH is one of the most common genetic disorders in individuals of Northern European descent.
Hereditary Hemochromatosis Causes
Hereditary hemochromatosis is caused by mutations in genes involved in iron metabolism. The most common mutation is in the HFE gene, specifically the C282Y and H63D mutations. These mutations lead to increased intestinal absorption of iron. Individuals who inherit two copies of the C282Y mutation (one from each parent) are at the highest risk of developing HH. Other, less common forms of HH can result from mutations in other genes such as HJV, HAMP, and TFR2.
Hereditary Hemochromatosis Signs and Symptoms
The symptoms of hereditary hemochromatosis often develop gradually and can be nonspecific, making early diagnosis challenging. Symptoms typically appear in middle age but can vary widely. Common signs and symptoms include:
Fatigue and weakness
Joint pain, particularly in the hands and knuckles
Abdominal pain
Skin bronzing or hyperpigmentation
Weight loss
In advanced stages, iron overload can lead to more severe complications such as:
Cirrhosis of the liver
Diabetes mellitus
Cardiomyopathy (heart muscle disease)
Arthritis
Hypothyroidism
Liver cancer
Hereditary Hemochromatosis Diagnosis
The diagnosis of hereditary hemochromatosis involves several steps:
Clinical Evaluation:
Assessment of symptoms and family history.
Laboratory Tests:
Serum ferritin: Measures stored iron in the body. Elevated levels suggest iron overload.
Transferrin saturation: Measures the percentage of transferrin (a protein that carries iron) that is saturated with iron. Elevated levels indicate increased iron absorption.
Liver function tests: To assess liver damage.
Genetic Testing:
To identify mutations in the HFE gene (C282Y and H63D mutations) and confirm the diagnosis.
Liver Biopsy or MRI:
In some cases, a liver biopsy or MRI may be performed to assess the extent of liver damage and iron overload.
Hereditary Hemochromatosis Treatment Options
The main goal of treatment for hereditary hemochromatosis is to remove excess iron from the body and prevent further accumulation. Treatment options include:
Phlebotomy (Therapeutic Venesection):
Regular removal of blood (similar to blood donation) to reduce iron levels. This is the standard treatment and is usually performed weekly or biweekly until iron levels normalize, followed by maintenance phlebotomies.
Chelation Therapy:
For patients who cannot tolerate phlebotomy, iron chelation drugs such as deferoxamine, deferasirox, or deferiprone can be used to bind and remove excess iron through the urine or feces.
Dietary Changes:
Avoiding iron supplements and limiting dietary iron intake.
Reducing or avoiding alcohol consumption, as alcohol increases iron absorption and can exacerbate liver damage.
Avoiding raw shellfish, which can contain bacteria harmful to individuals with HH.
Monitoring and Management of Complications:
Regular monitoring of iron levels, liver function, and overall health.
Managing complications such as diabetes, heart disease, and liver disease through appropriate medical treatments and lifestyle modifications.
Hereditary Hemochromatosis Prognosis and Complications
When diagnosed and treated early, individuals with hereditary hemochromatosis can have a normal life expectancy and avoid many complications. If left untreated, however, iron overload can lead to severe and potentially life-threatening conditions, including liver cirrhosis, liver cancer, heart disease, and diabetes.
Hereditary Hemochromatosis Follow-Up
Regular follow-up with a healthcare provider is essential to monitor iron levels, adjust treatment as needed, and manage any complications. Genetic counseling may also be recommended for patients and their families to understand the hereditary nature of the disorder and the risks for family members.
In summary, hereditary hemochromatosis is a manageable condition when diagnosed early and treated appropriately. Regular phlebotomy and lifestyle adjustments are key to preventing iron overload and maintaining good health.

Hereditary Hemochromatosis Market

According to the National Organization for Rare Disorders (NORD), hereditary hemochromatosis refers to a group of rare genetic disorders characterized by the accumulation of iron in various organs, such as the liver, heart, and pancreas. The excess iron can damage these organs, potentially causing a variety of symptoms.

The current treatment paradigm for hereditary hemochromatosis involves regularly removing iron from the blood through a process called phlebotomy. Phlebotomy, approved by the US Food and Drug Administration at some blood collection centers in the United States, involves frequent blood removal to reduce iron levels initially. Once iron levels are lowered, phlebotomies are performed as needed to maintain normal iron levels. This process is effective because most of the body's iron is stored in red blood cells. The frequency of blood removal depends on factors such as age, health, and the severity of iron overload, and the process commonly continues for about two years until iron levels are controlled.

The market outlook for hereditary hemochromatosis helps build a comprehensive understanding of historical, current, and forecasted market trends by analyzing the impact of current therapies, unmet needs, drivers, barriers, and the demand for better technology. According to DelveInsight, the hereditary hemochromatosis market in the 7MM (the seven major markets) is expected to witness significant changes during the study period from 2019 to 2032.

Hereditary Hemochromatosis Epidemiology

According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), hereditary hemochromatosis is a disorder that causes the body to absorb excessive amounts of iron from the diet. This surplus iron is stored in various tissues and organs, particularly the skin, heart, liver, pancreas, and joints. Since the human body cannot increase iron excretion, this excess iron accumulates, eventually causing damage to these tissues and organs. Hence, hereditary hemochromatosis is also known as an iron overload disorder.

A study by Crooks et al. (2008) found that hereditary hemochromatosis affects males and females in a 2:1 ratio.

The epidemiology section on hereditary hemochromatosis offers insights into the historical and current patient populations and projected trends in seven major countries. It helps identify the causes of current and future trends by examining numerous studies and expert opinions. This part of the market report also details the diagnosed patient pool, trends, and underlying assumptions.
