Key Factors Driving the Growth of the Choroidal Neovascularization Market

Rising prevalence of AMD and aging populations
The global increase in age-related macular degeneration (the primary cause of CNV) alongside an expanding elderly population drives demand, leading to more diagnoses, longer-term treatment requirements, and higher overall patient volumes.

Improved diagnostics and screening
The broader use of high-resolution retinal imaging technologies (OCT, OCT angiography) and remote screening programs enables earlier detection and timely referrals, expanding the treated population. Additionally, these technologies support treat-and-extend protocols, enhancing clinic efficiency and patient adherence.

Launch of emerging gene therapies
The expected introduction of novel gene therapies for choroidal neovascularization, such as Surabgene lomparvovec (ABBV-RGX-314) by AbbVie/REGENXBIO, NG101 by Neuracle Genetics, and Ixoberogene soroparvovec by Adverum Biotechnologies, is likely to reshape market dynamics.

Choroidal Neovascularization Market Analysis

Choroidal neovascularization is primarily managed using intravitreal anti-VEGF therapy to inhibit abnormal blood vessel growth and leakage beneath the retina, key contributors to vision loss. Leading treatments include VABYSMO (faricimab-svoa) by Genentech, the first bispecific antibody targeting VEGF-A and Ang-2, and BEOVU (brolucizumab-dbll) by Novartis, developed to offer extended dosing intervals and prolonged efficacy. These therapies have demonstrated significant improvements in visual acuity and reduced retinal fluid.

Next-generation candidates, such as Surabgene lomparvovec (ABBV-RGX-314), Ixoberogene soroparvovec, and NG101, are designed to provide long-term VEGF inhibition through single-dose administration, reducing treatment burden. Complementary approaches, including laser photocoagulation and photodynamic therapy, remain applicable for select cases.

These advancements are transforming management strategies, moving from frequent injections toward durable, mechanism-based therapies that maintain vision over time. Ongoing research indicates that the 7MM choroidal neovascularization market will experience significant evolution between 2025 and 2034.

Choroidal Neovascularization Competitive Landscape

Emerging gene therapies, such as Surabgene lomparvovec (ABBV-RGX-314), NG101, and Ixoberogene soroparvovec, are driving a transition to durable, one-time treatments for choroidal neovascularization, addressing underlying mechanisms, reducing treatment frequency, and supporting long-term vision preservation.

Surabgene lomparvovec (ABBV-RGX-314) – AbbVie & REGENXBIO
An experimental gene therapy for nAMD, it uses an AAV8 vector to deliver a gene encoding an antibody fragment that inhibits VEGF production in retinal cells. Designed as a single-dose treatment, it allows continuous intraocular anti-VEGF expression, potentially reducing injection frequency and supporting durable vision maintenance.

NG101 – Neuracle Genetics
An investigational therapy for nAMD, NG101 delivers a gene to retinal cells that blocks abnormal vessel growth and maintains retinal structure. Its single-administration approach aims to provide long-term control while minimizing the need for repeated intravitreal injections.

Ixoberogene soroparvovec – Adverum Biotechnologies
A one-time gene therapy using an AAV.7m8 vector to deliver a gene encoding an anti-VEGF protein to retinal cells, promoting sustained intraocular expression, inhibiting angiogenesis, and reducing vascular leakage. This therapy aims to maintain visual function while decreasing treatment burden.

The introduction of these therapies is expected to reshape the choroidal neovascularization market, offering innovative standards of care and unlocking new opportunities for medical and economic growth.

What is Choroidal Neovascularization?

Choroidal neovascularization (CNV) is characterized by abnormal growth of blood vessels from the choroid that penetrate Bruch’s membrane and invade the retinal pigment epithelium and neurosensory retina. This process leads to fluid accumulation, hemorrhage, and fibrotic scarring, often resulting in permanent central vision loss. CNV most commonly occurs as a complication of nAMD and pathological myopia, both major global causes of vision impairment. Patients typically report blurred or distorted central vision, metamorphopsia, and dark or empty areas in their sight. CNV pathogenesis is largely driven by increased VEGF expression induced by hypoxia, inflammation, and oxidative stress, promoting abnormal angiogenesis and vascular permeability.

Choroidal Neovascularization Epidemiology Segmentation

The epidemiology section provides historical, current, and forecasted insights into the CNV patient population across leading markets. In Japan, nAMD prevalence is approximately 0.52%, while myopic CNV accounts for around 11.3% of high myopia cases, highlighting regional disease patterns and the importance of early detection and ongoing monitoring.
