Hyaluronic Acid Market to Almost Double in Size



VANCOUVER, Feb. 16 /PRNewswire/ - According to a new global report series by iData Research (www.idataresearch.net), the leading authority in medical device, dental and pharmaceutical market research, the U.S. market for orthopedic biomaterials grew by 11.5% in 2009 and is estimated to reach almost $6.3 billion by 2016. The market for orthopedic hyaluronic acid viscosupplementation (HA) in 2009 increased almost 30% over the previous year due to growth in the market for three-injection-cycle products. The report states that the launch of single-injection-products will stimulate market growth for HA therapies, while the aging population and increased incidence of osteoarthritis will drive the overall market for orthopedic biomaterials.

Orthopedic biomaterials are implanted or applied in or near bone to facilitate healing. This procedure fills in areas where bone tissue is depleted to restore structure and allow for repair, leading to bone augmentation. Some of the fastest-growing market segments include orthopedic stem cells and cartilage repair. In addition, the market for HA is estimated to see significant changes, due to the FDA approval of Genzyme Biosurgery's single-injection product, SynviscOne(R).

"The introduction of single-injection-cycle products in 2009 is attracting new patients to the viscosupplementation market and cannibalizing market shares for existing products," says Dr. Kamran Zamanian, CEO of iData. "Competition is expected to intensify, putting pressure on pricing and influencing procedural volumes."
