Leber’s hereditary optic neuropathy: Market overview

Leber’s hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) is the most common mitochondrially inherited disease, which is associated with mitochondrial base pair mutations. The base pairs of mitochondria, which get affected due to LHON are G11778A (guanine to adenine at position 1778), T14484C (tyrosine to cytosine at position 14484), and G3460A (guanine to adenine at position 3460). The occurrence of mutations in these pairs affects respiratory chain complex I genes, mitochondrial genes ND1, ND4, and ND6, and others. In individuals suffering from this disease, the vision gets impacted due to degeneration of retinal ganglion cells and their axons, which leads to an acute or subacute loss of central vision of both eyes. The disease mainly impacts the central vision, thus causing a problem in reading, writing, and recognizing whereas peripheral vision remains unimpacted.

According to a senior market research analyst at Technavio, “LHON is one of the most common optic neuropathies found in young adult males. According to the US National Library of Medicines, the prevalence of LHON in most populations is unknown. It affects 1 in 30,000-50,000 people in Northeast England and Finland.”

Leber’s hereditary optic neuropathy: Segmentation analysis

This pipeline analysis report segments the Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy market based on therapies employed (monotherapy), RoA (ophthalmic, intravenous, intravitreal, and oral), therapeutic modality (small molecule, gene therapy, and peptide), targets (cardiolipin, NADH dehydrogenase subunit 4, and peroxiredoxin enzyme), geographical segmentation (US, UK, France, and Italy) and recruitment status (active, not recruiting, completed, and recruiting). It provides an in-depth analysis of the prominent factors influencing the market, including drivers, opportunities, trends, and industry-specific challenges.

Based on therapeutic modality, around 60% of the molecules that are being investigated for the treatment of Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy are small molecule.
