The growth of the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) market is driven by factors such as rising disease prevalence, increased investments in research and development, and the introduction of innovative therapies over the forecast period from 2020 to 2034.
The market report provides in-depth insights into COPD, including market size, share, epidemiology, emerging therapies, key drivers and barriers, ongoing clinical trials, strategic collaborations, and the adoption of therapies by companies actively contributing to market growth.
Some of the key highlights from the Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Market Insights Report:
Several leading pharmaceutical companies, including AstraZeneca/Circassia, GlaxoSmithKline/Theravance/Innoviva, Chiesi Farmaceutici, Sunovion, Boehringer Ingelheim, Sanofi/Regeneron, United Therapeutics, Verona Pharma, Inmunotek, Tetherex, Novartis, Organicell Regenerative Medicine, Vertex, Pulmotect, Genentech, Mereo BioPharma, Biomarck Pharmaceuticals, and others, are actively developing innovative therapies to improve the treatment landscape for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
The COPD market was valued at approximately USD 16.1 billion in 2023 and is expected to grow steadily during the forecast period (2024–2034), driven by rising diagnosis rates and the introduction of novel therapies. According to DelveInsight, around 41% of diagnosed COPD cases in the 7MM were in the United States, while the EU4 and the UK together accounted for roughly 18.6 million cases in 2023.
The 7MM COPD market is primarily segmented into three treatment categories: Monotherapies (e.g., LABA, LAMA), Double Combination Therapies (e.g., LABA + ICS, LABA + LAMA), and Triple Combination Therapies (LABA + LAMA + ICS). Among these, Double Combination Therapies generated the highest revenue in 2023, totaling approximately USD 8.8 billion.
Market growth is further supported by the emergence of more effective therapies, including Itepekimab (SAR440340/REGN3500), FASENRA (benralizumab), and NUCALA (mepolizumab). Key milestones include:
-
October 2024 – FDA approval of the first monoclonal antibody for COPD
-
September 2024 – Sanofi/Regeneron’s Dupixent received the first biologic approval for COPD
-
May 2024 – AstraZeneca presented research on major respiratory and immune-mediated diseases at ATS 2024, highlighting studies on benralizumab for COPD treatment
According to DelveInsight, the COPD market is expected to witness significant growth at a notable CAGR over the forecast period.

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Overview
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a common, preventable, and treatable respiratory disorder characterized by persistent symptoms and limited airflow. It arises from structural changes in the airways and/or alveoli, often caused by long-term exposure to harmful particles or gases. COPD develops through complex pathological processes, resulting in distinct subtypes with unique features and disease progression patterns. These differences lead to varying rates of exacerbations, degrees of airflow limitation, and levels of lung function impairment, making effective management of the disease a significant challenge.

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Market Outlook
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a common, preventable, and treatable lung disorder affecting both men and women worldwide. It is marked by airflow limitation caused by airway narrowing, inflammation, mucus accumulation, and lung tissue damage. COPD shares symptoms with asthma, including coughing, wheezing, and shortness of breath, and some individuals may experience both conditions.
Mild cases may require little more than smoking cessation, while more advanced stages are managed with therapies aimed at controlling symptoms, slowing disease progression, and reducing complications. Treatment focuses on improving breathing and overall quality of life through a combination of medications, lifestyle changes, and supportive approaches. Management is tailored to disease stage, emphasizing symptom relief and infection prevention.
Prevention—especially quitting smoking—is critical to slowing COPD progression. Regular exercise can strengthen respiratory muscles and enhance overall well-being. Pharmacologic management includes maintenance therapies (such as inhaled corticosteroids, long-acting beta-agonists, and combination treatments) and reliever medications (including short-acting beta-agonists, oral corticosteroids, and nebulized therapies).
