IFNγ Stimulator (pharma) is a class of therapeutic agents designed to enhance the production of interferon-gamma (IFNγ), a crucial cytokine in the immune system. These stimulators work by modulating the immune response and activating immune cells, leading to antiviral and anticancer activities. IFNγ stimulators find application in various disease indications, including autoimmune disorders such as multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and Crohn's disease, as well as certain cancers and chronic infections. According to WHO, autoimmune diseases affect millions of people in Europe and the USA, with around 2.3 million individuals suffering from multiple sclerosis in Europe alone. Rheumatoid arthritis, another prevalent autoimmune condition, affects more than 2 million adults in the USA. Additionally, the European Cancer Information System reports that over 4.2 million new cancer cases are diagnosed annually in Europe, and around 1.9 million new cancer cases are recorded yearly in the USA. Moreover, chronic infections like tuberculosis remain a concern, with nearly 300,000 reported tuberculosis cases in Europe and around 9,000 cases in the USA.
The growth of the IFNγ stimulator market is driven by the rising incidence of immune-related diseases, advancements in immunotherapy research, promising clinical trial outcomes, and a growing focus on personalized medicine. Companies such as Teva, Viatris, EMD Serono, Worg Pharma, Cullinan Oncology, Fate Therapy, and Mapi Pharma are pharmaceutical companies operating in this category. Moreover, many companies are coming up with new molecules in the space.
