Various uncertainties associated with rare diseases have failed to offer lucrative growth opportunities for market players. Moreover, low prevalence of these diseases and huge differentiation and heterogeneity among the group of diseases also limits R&D, which further leads to poor understanding of these diseases. Such scenario limits product development. However, introduction of some expensive orphan drugs e.g. spinal muscular atrophy drug Spinraza priced at US$ 125,000 per vial and high unmet needs have led market players to enhance their market share in the global rare disease drugs market.
