View Report Details Executive Summary Iron deficiency anemia is the most common form of anemia throughout the world. It is estimated that two billion people suffer from iron deficiency anemia worldwide. To address iron deficiency, iron therapy is important being the critical factor in the production of red blood cells. Around 4.5 million Americans are diagnosed and suffering from iron deficiency anemia (IDA). Generally, daily oral iron is the first line therapy for most IDA patient but for many patients oral iron therapy fails as a consequence of compliance, efficacy and side effects like constipation and gastro intestinal disorders. When oral supplements fail to meet the requirement, intravenous (I.V.) iron therapy is used, in which iron is directly injected with a needle into a vein. Iron given intravenously allows larger amounts of iron to be provided to patients while avoiding many of the side effects and treatment compliance issues associated with oral iron, and can result in faster rises in hemoglobin levels. In the US, a small fraction of non-dialysis CKD patients who are diagnosed with IDA are currently being treated with I.V. iron, and thus a significant opportunity is there for the market. The key factors driving growth of the global I.V. iron industry include iron deficiency in hemodialysis patient cases, growing number of ERSD patients, prevalence of iron deficiency in women, increasing global healthcare expenditure, increasing global ageing population and large potential in new therapeutic areas. Some of the noteworthy trends and developments of this industry are penetration of I.V. iron in obstetrics and gynecology area, new product development and increase in awareness of disease. However, the growth of this sector is hindered by potential risks of using I.V. iron, emerging anemia management therapies and strict regulatory structures. The report provides a comprehensive study of iron product market and I.V. iron market globally. It also provides detailed information for key regional markets of I.V iron industry. The competition in the global I.V. iron market is stiff among large players like Galenica Group, AMAG Pharmaceuticals Inc. and Actavis Plc. All these companies have been profiled in the present report highlighting their key financials and business strategies for growth. By combining SPSS Inc.’s data integration and analysis capabilities with our relevant findings, we have predicted the future growth of the industry. We employed various significant variables that have an impact on this industry and created regression models with SPSS Base to determine the future direction of the industry. Before deploying the regression model, the relationship between several independent or predictor variables and the dependent variable was analyzed using standard SPSS output, including charts, tables and tests.

Intravenous iron therapies find maximum use in nephrology segment, as a high percentage of the patients suffering from chronic kidney diseases (CKD) require them, owing to the low absorption of iron and decline in appetite due to kidney failure. In addition, patients who suffer from ESRD and undergo dialysis are the major consumers of I.V. iron products. This segment is expected to further benefit the global I.V. iron market in the coming years, chiefly due to an expected increase in the number of CKD and dialysis patients worldwide.

Outside dialysis, I.V. iron treatments find applications in many other therapeutic areas, especially for elderly population, as they are more prone to chronic diseases, which can further lead to iron deficiency. Also the increasing healthcare expenditure is likely to boost the growth of the market as I.V. iron therapies are comparatively costly.

All the factors mentioned above are certain to boost the performance of the global I.V. iron drug market, which is forecasted to reach US$... million by the end of 2019 from US$... million in 2014. The global market for I.V. iron drug is expected to grow at a CAGR of …% during the five year period from 2014 to 2019.
