DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The “North America Clinical Trials Market Size and Forecast Report 2025-2033” report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.

The North America Clinical Trials Market is expected to reach US$ 33.91 billion by 2033 from US$ 20.07 billion in 2024, with a CAGR of 6.00% from 2025 to 2033. This is explained by longer clinical trial cycles, the demand for new treatments, and an increase in viral disorders as COVID-19 and diabetes, as well as advantageous government R&D spending.

North America Clinical Trials Industry Overview

The growing need for novel medicines in a variety of therapeutic areas, including neurology, cardiology, and oncology, is the main factor propelling the North American clinical trials market’s constant expansion. As a market leader, the United States enjoys the advantages of strong infrastructure, top-notch research facilities, and substantial investments in innovative healthcare.

Drug development procedures are becoming faster and more efficient because to technological developments like big data, artificial intelligence, and decentralized clinical trials. Government financing and support for clinical research also contribute to the market’s expansion. Nonetheless, the sector is still affected by issues including regulatory barriers, trouble recruiting patients, and expensive trial operating expenses. The market is nevertheless vibrant and is anticipated to continue evolving in spite of these obstacles.

The market will expand quickly as a result of the growing number of clinical trials in North America, the pharmaceutical industry’s expensive R&D costs, and the rising incidence of illnesses. Clinical trials for new or uncommon diseases are anticipated to benefit from the diverse disease profiles that are found to be growing with time due to the growing population in the North American region. Therefore, biopharmaceutical companies would be encouraged to increase their investment in clinical trials for a particular disease segment based on the number of patients with that ailment.

As of September 2022, there were over 13,323 ongoing clinical studies in various stages for cancer indications in the US, according to the US National Library of Medicine. Over the past few years, pharmaceutical corporations have likewise been spending more and more on research and development (R&D). This was mostly caused by a large number of patents expiring, which leaves many pharmaceutical companies with no choice except to create new medications. As a result, businesses are investing more in R&D to speed up the creation of medications through clinical trials, which will increase the market as a whole.

Growth Drivers for the North America Clinical Trials Market

Rising Prevalence of Chronic Diseases

One of the main factors propelling the North American clinical trials market’s expansion is the growing incidence of chronic illnesses including diabetes, cancer, and cardiovascular disorders. Clinical trials are being conducted by pharmaceutical corporations and research institutions due to the growing demand for new treatments and therapies as these diseases proliferate.

These studies are essential for assessing the efficacy and security of possible treatments. Clinical trials are crucial for expanding medical knowledge and enhancing patient outcomes since chronic diseases frequently call for long-term management and innovative treatment choices. An older population, which is more likely to suffer chronic illnesses, supports this trend and increases the need for ongoing clinical research and innovative therapy development.

Advancements in Technology

Technological developments are drastically changing the clinical trials environment in North America. Clinical study design, management, and execution are being improved by emerging technologies including artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and big data analytics. These technologies aid in the real-time analysis of massive volumes of trial data, the more accurate identification of qualified applicants, and the prediction of patient outcomes.

They thereby shorten trial durations, cut down on mistakes, and enhance decision-making. AI and ML are also being used to remotely monitor patient adherence and optimize protocol design, which lowers costs and increases trial efficiency. These developments make technology a potent growth engine in the dynamic clinical research environment since they not only speed up drug development but also increase trial success rates.

Increased Investment in Oncology Research

One of the main factors propelling the growth of the clinical trials market is the rising incidence of cancer in North America, which has greatly increased funding for oncology research. The creation of novel cancer treatments is receiving a significant amount of support from public and private institutions as well as pharmaceutical firms.

Clinical trials focusing on cancer, such as immunotherapies, targeted medicines, and personalized medical methods, have increased as a result of this financial boom. Research efforts have been sped up by the need to find efficient treatments and raise survival rates, which has prompted quicker trial initiation and increased cooperation between sponsors and research institutes. Since cancer is still one of the top causes of mortality, the region’s clinical trial activity is growing in scope and size due to the strong emphasis on oncology research.

Challenges in the North America Clinical Trials Market

High Operational Costs

One major issue facing the clinical trials sector in North America is high operating costs. Significant costs are associated with conducting a clinical trial, such as hiring highly qualified personnel, investing in cutting-edge technology, building out the facility, adhering to regulations, and continuously gathering and tracking data. Complex trial designs, multi-site coordination, and longer study durations can all result in further increases in these expenses.

Financial limitations can make it difficult for smaller biotech companies and research institutes to start or continue trials, frequently forcing them to rely on collaborations or outside funding. There is still a lot of pressure to strike a balance between cost effectiveness, data quality, and legal requirements. The cost of trials only goes up as they get more creative and customized, which is a major obstacle to larger research and development initiatives.

Regulatory Complexities

One of the biggest obstacles facing the clinical trials sector in North America is the complexity of regulations. To guarantee the safety and effectiveness of novel medications and therapies, organizations such as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) implement strict and ever-changing regulations. Although these rules are necessary, following them can cause delays in trial approvals and raise compliance expenses dramatically.

The procedure, which can be time- and resource-intensive, entails thorough documentation, ethical evaluations, and adherence to stringent criteria. Conducting multinational or multi-site studies also adds another level of complexity because different regulatory requirements in different locations need to be carefully maintained. These elements may cause delays in the start of trials, cause schedule disruptions, and increase the administrative load on sponsors and research institutions.

Medical Gas Market Trends and Forecast Report 2025-2033 | Home Healthcare Trends, Chronic Disease Burden, and Medical Tech Advancements Drive Growth – ResearchAndMarkets.com




Medical Gas Market Trends and Forecast Report 2025-2033 | Home Healthcare Trends, Chronic Disease Burden, and Medical Tech Advancements Drive Growth – ResearchAndMarkets.com

DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The “Medical Gas Market Share Analysis and Size – Growth Trends and Forecast Report 2025-2033” report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.

The Global Medical Gas Market is expected to reach US$ 28.61 billion by 2033 from US$ 14.41 billion in 2024, with a CAGR of 7.92% from 2025 to 2033. Some of the key reasons driving the market are the growing tendency toward home healthcare and telemedicine, the prevalence of chronic illnesses including respiratory and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), and many developments in medical technology.

Global Medical Gas Industry Overview

The aging population, rising rates of chronic respiratory conditions, and improvements in healthcare infrastructure are all contributing to the substantial expansion of the worldwide medical gas market. Medical gases, such as carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, and oxygen, are necessary for a number of therapeutic and diagnostic uses in ambulatory surgery centers, home healthcare settings, and hospitals. The need for portable medical gas solutions, such oxygen concentrators, has increased due to the growing demand for home healthcare services.

Due to growing healthcare sectors and government expenditures in medical infrastructure, the Asia-Pacific region is expected to develop at the highest rate, while North America already has a significant market share. The availability and distribution of medical gases may be impacted by supply chain interruptions and strict regulatory restrictions, which provide difficulties for the sector.

The need for medicinal gases is also being fueled by the increasing incidence of asthma. The Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW) estimates that in 2023, asthma accounted for 35% of the entire burden related to all respiratory disorders and 2.5% of the overall illness burden. Nitrous oxide, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, oxygen, and medical air are some of the most often utilized medical gases in hospitals.

One of the leading companies, Air Liquide Healthcare, provides medicinal gases to 20,000 hospitals and new healthcare facilities, and assists over 2 million people in managing chronic illnesses. Medical gases including heliox, oxygen, and lung gas mixes are widely employed in the diagnosis and treatment of certain respiratory conditions.

Additionally, the need for portable medical gases, such as oxygen concentrators, is rising as more people choose home-based healthcare. In order to ensure that chronic patients receive the oxygen therapy they require at home, this change places an emphasis on convenience and continuity of care. Home healthcare has become increasingly popular in recent years and is predicted to continue to grow. Many medical illnesses may now be successfully treated at home, including those that require ventilator assistance, mixed gas therapies, and long-term oxygen therapy.

Additionally, it is anticipated that rising home healthcare reimbursement would support market expansion throughout the projection period. The Firesafe Cannula Valve, for example, was formally covered by Iowa Medicaid in November 2023 and was given the HCPCS number E0700 for reimbursement. In the event that the oxygen tubing downstream burns, this novel mechanism functions as a thermal fuse and instantly stops the oxygen supply. Thermal fuses must be installed in all home oxygen systems in the United Kingdom. Interestingly, the US has a 20-fold greater risk of death from oxygen-related flames than England, where installing firebreaks has been required since 2006.

Growth Drivers for the Medical Gas Market

Numerous Medical Technology Advancements

Laparoscopy and endoscopy are examples of minimally invasive (MI) surgical techniques that have been made possible by technological breakthroughs. Surgeons can execute treatments with fewer incisions, quicker patient recovery, and less tissue stress when medical gases like carbon dioxide are utilized to provide a clean operating field. Furthermore, more specialized and individualized treatment for respiratory problems is now possible because to developments in respiratory therapy equipment.

The World Health Organization reports that asthma and other chronic respiratory diseases (CRDs) are on the rise worldwide, with 3.2 million deaths from COPD and 262 million cases of asthma in 2019. Advanced oxygen treatment equipment, such as portable oxygen delivery systems and oxygen concentrators, are used to supply medical gases like oxygen. Additionally, a number of developments in dermatology and cryosurgery have increased the use of medicinal gases, such as liquid nitrogen, to freeze and remove sick or aberrant tissue. The market is being driven by the regulated and focused treatment that cryotherapy equipment provides, which minimizes harm to nearby healthy tissue.

Growing Preference for Telemedicine and Home Healthcare

Medical gases, such as oxygen, are frequently given to patients in their homes as part of home healthcare. To control their symptoms and enhance their quality of life, patients with long-term respiratory diseases like COPD need oxygen treatment. Medical oxygen gases are in greater demand as a result of the shift toward home healthcare, which enables patients to obtain oxygen therapy without the need for extended hospital stays. Furthermore, nebulization, pain relief, and respiratory therapies are only a few of the uses for medical gases that go beyond oxygen therapy. As a result of this trend, fewer extended hospital stays are required, which raises the requirement for medical oxygen.

Additionally, as cardiovascular disorders are thought to cause 17.9 million deaths worldwide each year, medicinal gases – such as oxygen – are essential for treating associated ailments, which raises the need for at-home therapies. The need for medical gases is further increased by the growth of telemedicine and home healthcare, which enables patients to receive a greater variety of medical gas treatments in the convenience of their own homes.

Rising Rates of Chronic Conditions, Including Heart and Respiratory Conditions

Medical gases like oxygen are necessary for respiratory support because to the rising prevalence of respiratory conditions such asthma, interstitial lung disorders, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Chronic respiratory disorders (CRDs), such as asthma, interstitial lung diseases, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), are on the rise, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). According to the Global Asthma Report, asthma affects an estimated 262 million people globally, and COPD alone was responsible for almost 3.2 million deaths in 2019.

Oxygen treatment is necessary for patients who have trouble breathing in order to keep their blood oxygen levels sufficient and to relieve their symptoms. Furthermore, medicinal gases are frequently needed for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes in cardiovascular illnesses, such as heart failure, coronary artery disease, and hypertension. In order to ensure patient comfort and stability during cardiovascular procedures, nitrous oxide is used as an anesthetic agent. Additionally, medicinal gases are essential for palliative care for individuals with chronic illnesses that have progressed.

Challenges in the Medical Gas Market

Stringent Regulatory Compliance

Because medical gases are essential to patient care and safety, the market is subject to strict regulatory compliance. To guarantee that medical gases fulfill therapeutic needs, regulatory agencies impose stringent criteria for purity, labeling, packing, and transportation. Operational complexity can be further increased by the constant monitoring, certification procedures, and thorough paperwork that are frequently required to comply with these rules. To maintain compliance, manufacturers must spend more on qualified staff and sophisticated quality control systems, which raises prices. Furthermore, managing disparate regional restrictions might make international distribution plans more difficult. Although these regulations guarantee patient safety and product dependability, they also place a financial and logistical strain on manufacturers, particularly newly established smaller businesses.

High Production and Storage Costs

Complex infrastructure and procedures are needed to produce and store medicinal gases, which raises supply chain costs. To guarantee purity and safety, the gases need to be produced under exacting circumstances, which calls for cutting-edge technology and strict adherence to regulations. Energy-intensive systems are needed for compression and liquefaction, and storage facilities need to be built to withstand temperature changes, pollution, and leakage.

Specialized, frequently temperature-controlled containers that adhere to stringent rules are also necessary for the transportation of these gases. Long-term costs are further increased by continuing storage system monitoring and maintenance. These elements work together to make medical gases far more expensive to produce, handle, and distribute than many other medical supplies, which puts a strain on both healthcare providers and suppliers.

• R&D Expenses: Research and development expenses were $86.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $56.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase in research and development expenses was driven by increased costs associated with conducting more clinical trials than the same period last year, including multiple ongoing phase 3 clinical trials for both veligrotug and VRDN-003 and a phase 1 clinical trial for VRDN-006, as well as increased personnel-related costs as a result of increased headcount.

• G&A Expenses: General and administrative expenses were $20.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $16.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was driven by increased costs associated with preparatory commercial activities for veligrotug, as well as increased legal, accounting, and other professional service costs and personnel-related costs to support the growing organization.

• Shares Outstanding: As of June 30, 2025, Viridian had 100,320,386 shares of common stock outstanding on an as-converted basis, which included 81,651,186 shares of common stock and an aggregate 18,669,200 shares of common stock issuable upon the conversion of 134,864 and 145,160 shares of Series A and Series B preferred stock, respectively.

About Viridian Therapeutics

Viridian is a biopharmaceutical company focused on discovering, developing, and commercializing potential best-in-class medicines for patients with serious and rare diseases. Viridian’s expertise in antibody discovery and protein engineering enables the development of differentiated therapeutic candidates for previously validated drug targets in commercially established disease areas.

Viridian is advancing multiple candidates in the clinic for the treatment of patients with thyroid eye disease (TED) and a portfolio of inhibitors to the neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn). In TED, the company is conducting a pivotal program for veligrotug, including two global phase 3 clinical trials (THRIVE and THRIVE-2), to evaluate its efficacy and safety in patients with active and chronic TED. Both THRIVE and THRIVE-2 reported positive topline data, meeting all the primary and secondary endpoints of each study. For the FcRn portfolio, Viridian is developing VRDN-006, a Fc fragment that inhibits FcRn, and VRDN-008, a half-life extended FcRn inhibitor.

About Veligrotug

Veligrotug is an intravenously delivered, anti-insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R) antibody in phase 3 development for thyroid eye disease, with the potential to be the IV treatment-of-choice for active and chronic TED patients. Based on clinical data to date, veligrotug has demonstrated robust clinical activity and was generally well-tolerated.

In its pivotal phase 3 clinical trials, THRIVE and THRIVE-2, veligrotug demonstrated a rapid onset of treatment effect and statistically significant and clinically meaningful reduction and resolution of diplopia. Both THRIVE and THRIVE-2 reported positive topline data, meeting all the primary and secondary endpoints of each study. This is the first data set from a global phase 3 clinical trial in chronic TED patients to demonstrate statistically significant diplopia response and resolution.

About VRDN-003

VRDN-003 is a subcutaneously delivered, half-life extended, potential best-in-class anti-IGF-1R antibody. VRDN-003 has the same binding domain as veligrotug and was engineered to have a longer half-life. In a phase 1 healthy volunteer clinical trial, VRDN-003 showed a half-life of 40-50 days, 4-5x that of veligrotug. Pharmacokinetics modeling predicted that VRDN-003 exposure levels after Q4W and Q8W dosing achieve the range of veligrotug exposures that showed robust clinical activity in a two-infusion phase 2 clinical trial in TED. Viridian is conducting a pivotal program for VRDN-003, including two phase 3 clinical trials assessing VRDN-003 dosed Q4W and Q8W in active and chronic TED, REVEAL-1 and REVEAL-2, respectively.

About VRDN-006 and VRDN-008

VRDN-006 is a highly selective Fc fragment which inhibits FcRn and is designed to be a convenient subcutaneous and self-administered option for patients. Viridian is studying VRDN-006 in a first-in-human phase 1 clinical trial in healthy volunteers.

VRDN-008 is a half-life extended FcRn inhibitor comprising an Fc fragment and an albumin-binding domain designed to prolong IgG suppression and provide a potentially best-in-class subcutaneous option for patients. VRDN-008 showed a longer half-life than efgartigimod and led to a more sustained IgG reduction after a single, high dose in non-human primates.

Third Quarter GAAP Results

• Revenue: In the third quarter of fiscal 2025, revenue was $80.7 billion, up 8.7 percent compared to the same quarter in the previous fiscal year, due to an 8.5 percent increase in revenue within the U.S. Healthcare Solutions segment and a 10.5 percent increase in revenue within the International Healthcare Solutions segment.

• Gross Profit: Gross profit in the third quarter of fiscal 2025 was $2.9 billion, a 20.6 percent increase compared to the same quarter in the previous fiscal year, primarily due to the increase in gross profit in both reportable segments and a LIFO credit in the current year quarter in comparison to LIFO expense in the prior year quarter, offset in part by lower gains from antitrust litigation settlements in the current year quarter. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 3.60 percent, an increase of 35 basis points from the prior year quarter due to the increase in U.S. Healthcare Solutions gross profit margin, driven primarily from the January 2025 acquisition of Retina Consultants of America (RCA).

• Operating Expenses: In the third quarter of fiscal 2025, operating expenses were $2.0 billion, a 17.3 percent increase compared to the same quarter in the previous fiscal year, primarily driven by an increase in distribution, selling, and administrative expenses as a result of the January 2025 acquisition of RCA and to support our revenue growth.

U.S. Healthcare Solutions

U.S. Healthcare Solutions revenue was $72.9 billion in the third quarter of fiscal 2025, an increase of 8.5 percent compared to the same quarter in the previous fiscal year due to overall market growth primarily driven by unit volume growth, including increased sales of products labeled for diabetes and/or weight loss in the GLP-1 class and specialty products to physician practices and health systems.
