Beta Thalassemia Treatment Market size was over USD 523.48 million in 2024 and is likely to reach USD 1.4 billion by the end of 2037, witnessing around 7.9% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2025-2037. In the year 2025, the industry size of beta thalassemia treatment is assessed at USD 556.56 million.
The growth of this market can be primarily driven by the increasing prevalence of beta thalassemia worldwide with no viable treatment options found for curing the disease. This disease is majorly caused by to mutation in the hemoglobin subunit beta gene. The number of beta thalassemia cases found is 1 in 100,000 people in the general population worldwide.
The market for treating beta-thalassemia around the world is significantly being driven by rising healthcare spending. Thalassemia requires extensive medical management due to its complexity, which includes routine blood transfusions, iron chelation therapy, and potentially curative treatments. The cost of diagnostic procedures, therapeutic regimens, and supporting care in healthcare increases in direct proportion to the prevalence of thalassemia. In order to drive market growth and improve results for beta-thalassemia patients, healthcare providers, research organizations, and pharmaceutical businesses invest in creating novel medications, gene therapies, and additional care choices.

Therapy (Blood Transfusion, Iron Chelation Therapy, Folic Acid Supplements, Gene Therapy, Bone Marrow Transplant)
Beta thalassemia treatment market from the iron chelation therapy segment is predicted to hold the highest growth of 40% during the predicted time period. Currently, treating the symptoms of beta thalassemia is the norm rather than trying to find a solution. The majority of the treatments for the condition deal with the iron excess brought on by blood transfusions, as well as fetal hemoglobin-raising drugs, vitamin supplements, and the antioxidant indicaxanthin, which prevents hemoglobin from degrading. It is anticipated that the demand for iron-chelating therapies will present several potentials for business expansion if drugs that are presently in phase II or phase III studies are approved by the FDA.
Distribution Channel (Hospital Pharmacies, Retail Pharmacies, Online Pharmacies)
Based on distribution channel, the hospitals pharmacies segment in the beta thalassemia treatment market is anticipated to hold a significant revenue share during the time period between 2025 - 2037. The segment is anticipated to grow as hospital pharmacies are able to offer patients access to a wide range of medications and other products as well support of healthcare professionals. Furthermore, increasing demand for innovative and effective treatments along with the development of new therapies are boosting the growth of this segment in the projected period. Reblozyl received approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in November 2019 to treat anemia in adult beta-thalassemia patients who require frequent red blood cell transfusions.
