The chronic kidney disease market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
•There has been a solid expansion in the chronic kidney disease market size in the past few years. The market is anticipated to rise from $70.65 billion in 2024 to $75.09 billion in 2025, marking a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.3%.
This growth during the historic period is primarily due to factors such as the hypertension and diabetes outbreak, increased aging population, poor health habits, unequal access to healthcare, and advancements in medical technology.
The chronic kidney disease market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• There is an anticipated robust expansion in the chronic kidney disease market in the upcoming years, with estimated growth to $95.85 billion by the year 2029, projecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.3%.
Several factors can explain the escalated growth during the forecast period - a concentrated focus on healthcare policies, advancements in precision medicine, the surge in obesity rates, an increase in chronic diseases, and better access to healthcare facilities. Some significant trends to look out for during this forecast period include early detection drives, the rise of telemedicine and remote health monitoring, patient empowerment strategies, initiatives emphasizing community-based care, and the integration of nutritional therapy.
The escalating occurrence of kidney disease is likely to boost the progression of the chronic kidney disease market in the coming future. Kidney diseases encompass a range of disorders impacting kidney functionality and its structure. Treatment for kidney disease aims to regulate patients' blood pressure, minimize protein loss to prevent the advancement of kidney dysfunction, manage signs and forestall outcomes. For example, data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, a public health institution based in the US, revealed that around 15%, tantamount to 37 million people in the US, battled kidney disease in July 2022. Hence, the escalating occurrence of kidney disease is a key factor propelling the growth of the chronic kidney disease market.

Innovations in product development are emerging as a crucial trend in the chronic kidney disease market. Firms in this market are creating novel products to maintain their market presence. For example, Bayer, a biotech and pharmaceutical company based in Germany, introduced a pioneering medicine, Kerendia (finerenone), in August 2022 to curb the advancement of chronic kidney disease in people with diabetes. This medication has a unique non-steroidal, selective mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist character that sets it apart from existing treatments. Its function is to inhibit the overactivation of the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR), a factor that enhances CKD progression and cardiovascular damage.
