Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis Market to Reach USD 2.5 Billion by 2034

Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC) is a rare, chronic, progressive liver disease characterized by inflammation and scarring of the bile ducts, which ultimately leads to cirrhosis, liver failure, and, in many cases, the need for liver transplantation. Although the exact cause remains unclear, PSC has strong associations with autoimmune disorders and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The growing global prevalence of liver disorders, improved diagnostic techniques, and increased research into rare diseases have placed PSC in the spotlight of pharmaceutical innovation and healthcare policy.

In recent years, the market has witnessed increasing R&D investments, drug pipeline expansion, and rising awareness about rare diseases. As healthcare systems and biopharma companies focus on orphan drug development, PSC is becoming a critical area for clinical research. The next decade is set to witness significant developments in treatment options and market growth.

Market Overview
The Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis market size was valued at USD 1.1 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 2.5 Billion by 2034, growing at a CAGR of 8.5% during 2025-2034.

Key Highlights:
• Market Size 2024: USD 1.1 Billion
• Forecast 2034: USD 2.5 Billion
• CAGR (2025-2034): 8.5%
• Key Growth Drivers: Rise in rare disease research funding, orphan drug designation incentives, liver transplantation demand, improved diagnostics
• Challenges: Lack of approved therapies, high treatment cost, clinical trial complexities, late-stage diagnosis
• Leading Players: Gilead Sciences, Intercept Pharmaceuticals, AbbVie, Novartis, Bristol Myers Squibb, Dr. Falk Pharma, Zydus Lifesciences

The lack of curative therapies represents both a challenge and an opportunity. Currently, no FDA-approved medication specifically targets PSC, although ursodeoxycholic acid and liver transplantation remain common management strategies. The strong R&D pipeline for PSC, supported by global orphan drug policies, is expected to drive market expansion through the next decade.

Segmentation Analysis
