What Are The Key Drivers Propelling The Growth Of The FECD Market?
The increasing demand for corneal transplants is expected to drive the expansion of the FECD market. A corneal transplant refers to a surgical procedure that involves replacing a damaged or diseased cornea with healthy donor corneal tissue. This procedure helps to restore vision and eye function. The heightened demand for corneal transplants can be attributed to the increasing prevalence of corneal diseases, which often lead to vision impairment and require surgical intervention. The FECD condition, in particular, accelerates the need for corneal transplants by causing progressive damage to the corneal endothelium, which often necessitates surgical intervention. For example, in 2023, there was a 2.7% increase in domestic keratoplasty procedures, from 49,597 in 2022 to 50,925 in 2023, as reported by the Eye Bank Association of America, a US-based transplant association. Therefore, the escalating demand for corneal transplants is a primary driver spurring the growth of the FECD market.

What Are The Emerging Trends In The FECD Market?
Leading companies in the FECD market are focusing on clinical trials to develop novel products, such as rho kinase inhibitors, aimed at improving corneal cell regeneration and vision restoration. These classes of drugs improve corneal cell regeneration and reduce cell stress by blocking the rho kinase pathway, making them promising for treating conditions such as FECD. For instance, in April 2023, Japan-based pharmaceutical company, Kowa Company Ltd., announced the launch of a global phase 3 clinical trial. This trial is designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of K-321 Ripasudil Hydrochloride Dihydrate ophthalmic solution in treating patients with FECD following descemetorhexis. This study aims to offer a nonsurgical treatment option for FECD, a progressive eye condition that often necessitates corneal transplantation in its later stages. With the exploration of the use of Rho kinase inhibitors beyond their traditional role in glaucoma therapy, this trial marks a significant advancement in developing pharmacological solutions for unmet needs in FECD management.
