1 | Market Overview

The global carglumic acid market is experiencing steady growth, driven by the increasing prevalence of hyperammonemia disorders and greater awareness of orphan diseases. Carglumic acid is mainly used to treat N-acetylglutamate synthase (NAGS) deficiency, a rare urea cycle disorder that causes excessive ammonia buildup in the blood.

The market is benefiting from improved newborn screening programs, better diagnostic capabilities, and expanding healthcare infrastructure in emerging economies. Supportive regulatory pathways for orphan drugs and increased R&D investments are further speeding up market adoption.

2 | Market Size and Forecast

Year	Market Value (USD Billion)	Notes
2019	0.42	Historical benchmark
2024	0.61	Five-year CAGR 7.8%
2031	1.19	Seven-year CAGR 9.7%

The market is projected to almost double by 2031, driven by increased access to genetic testing and growing demand for rare disease treatments.

3 | Key Market Drivers

Rising Diagnosis of Urea Cycle Disorders: Enhanced screening protocols globally.
Favorable Orphan Drug Policies: Fast-track approvals and tax incentives for rare disease treatments.
Increasing R&D in Metabolic Disorders: Pipeline expansion for genetic and enzymatic therapies.
Growing Patient Awareness: Support from advocacy groups and healthcare organizations.

4 | Market Challenges

High Treatment Cost: Carglumic acid therapy is expensive and not accessible in all markets.
Limited Patient Pool: Small incidence rates of NAGS deficiency restrict commercial scaling.
Dependence on Single Product Players: Market concentration increases supply chain risks.

5 | Competitive Landscape
The carglumic acid market is highly consolidated, mainly controlled by one major player with worldwide regulatory approvals.

Market Share Estimates (2024):

Company	Estimated Market Share	Key Product
Recordati Rare Diseases	87%	Carbaglu® (carglumic acid)
Others (Compounding Pharmacies, Generics in Development)	13%	Pipeline and early market entrants
