Spinal Cord Injury Drug Treatment Market is Predicted to Reach New Heights with the Anticipated Launch of Emerging Therapies and Breakthroughs by 2034 | DelveInsight
In 2023, there were an estimated total diagnosed prevalent cases of SCI across the 7MM, with the number expected to rise by 2034, as per DelveInsight analysis. According to estimates, there were approximately acute (incidence) cases of SCI across the US in 2023, with the number expected to rise by 2034.
A spinal cord injury is a life-changing experience, and adapting to it can be difficult. However, with the help of a committed medical team and strong social support, individuals with spinal cord injuries can discover ways to participate in activities they love and live meaningful lives. Continued research efforts are focused on advancing our understanding of SCI's causes, developing new treatment approaches, and evaluating the effectiveness of interventions. These initiatives include preclinical research, clinical trials, and collaborative partnerships between academia, industry, and government, all aimed at improving treatment options for SCI patients.
The treatment options for SCI are still limited, with few approved therapies. At present, is the only authorized treatment, available exclusively in Japan . is the only FDA-approved medication for neuropathic pain related to SCI, with generic versions also available.

, developed by , is an autologous mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapy aimed at treating traumatic spinal cord injury. The treatment process involves extracting MSCs from the patient's bone marrow, expanding them in vitro, and cryopreserving them for future administration. Delivered via intravenous infusion, these MSCs migrate to the injury site, where they promote tissue repair and functional recovery through immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, and trophic factor-secreting mechanisms.
In 2018, STEMIRAC received conditional market approval from Japan's Pharmaceutical and Medical Devices Agency (PMDA), requiring continued data collection to assess its long-term efficacy and safety. Initially approved for subacute SCI, a corporate clinical trial for chronic SCI was launched in July 2023 to broaden its therapeutic applications. Recognized as a breakthrough product under Japan's SAKIGAKE system in 2016, STEMIRAC represents a significant advancement in regenerative medicine. Developed in collaboration with Sapporo Medical University, it is expected to achieve full approval by December 2025 , offering new treatment possibilities for SCI patients.
There is a critical need for targeted therapies to improve outcomes and promote functional recovery. Although there is no cure for SCI, ongoing research is focused on developing treatments to improve long-term outcomes and prevent complications.

The development pipeline for SCI treatment is limited, with (Kringle Pharma), (Neuroplast), (Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma America), and (AbbVie) being the primary candidates. There is a significant unmet need for targeted treatments, as current therapies focus on symptom management rather than addressing the underlying condition.

, developed by , is under investigation for treating acute spinal cord injury (SCI). The drug is designed to protect nerve cells and promote axonal growth, potentially aiding motor function recovery. Promising Phase I/II results demonstrated a strong safety and efficacy profile in patients with severe acute cervical SCI. A Phase III trial, initiated in July 2020 , assessed KP–100IT's effectiveness in improving recovery, with the primary objective of achieving at least a two-grade improvement in the American Spinal Injury Association ( ASIA ) score within six months.
Top-line results from the Phase III study, released in February 2024 , reinforce progress in acute SCI treatment. Additionally, KP–100IT was granted Orphan Drug Designation for acute-phase SCI by Japan's Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW) in September 2019 . Kringle Pharma is now preparing a marketing application, targeting manufacturing and marketing approval by March 2025 .
has developed , an innovative stem cell therapy designed to treat traumatic spinal cord injury (TSCI) by reducing inflammation and promoting nerve regeneration in the central nervous system. Its goal is to preserve and restore function, mobility, and independence, marking a significant advancement in TSCI treatment.
The clinical development of Neuro-Cells has shown encouraging results. Neuroplast launched Phase II trials in March 2022 , successfully completing patient enrollment by September 2023 . Conducted with the approval of Spanish regulatory authorities, the trial confirmed a strong safety profile, with no product-related adverse events and positive patient feedback. Currently, Neuro–Cells is progressing through Phase II/III clinical trials for TSCI. Notably, Neuroplast was granted European Orphan Designation in May 2019 and secured a GMP license in November 2021 , reinforcing its commitment to accelerating development and addressing unmet needs in TSCI treatment.
, developed by in partnership with Osaka University, is designed to treat spinal cord injury. By inhibiting repulsive guidance molecule A (RGMa), a key factor that suppresses neuronal survival and regeneration, MT-3921 aims to enhance neuroregeneration and restore motor function in SCI patients. The U.S. FDA granted it in July 2021.
A Phase II Proof-of-Concept trial, launched in September 2021 , is assessing MT-3921's effectiveness in 72 SCI patients across clinical sites in the United States and Japan . The study focuses on changes in Upper Extremity Motor Score (UEMS) over a six-month treatment period. Administered via intravenous infusion, MT-3921 holds promise as a potential therapy for improving motor function in individuals with SCI.
