Market Analysis and Price Projections for NDC: 59651-0183

Last updated: February 24, 2026

What is the drug identified by NDC 59651-0183?

NDC 59651-0183 corresponds to Evrysdi (risdiplam), marketed by Roche. It is an oral medication approved for the treatment of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) in adults and children aged two months and older.

What is the current market landscape for risdiplam?

Risdiplam entered the market in August 2020 following FDA approval in August 2020. Its primary competitors in SMA include:

  • Spinraza (nusinersen) by Biogen
  • Zolgensma (onasemnogene abeparvovec-xioi) by Novartis

Market size and revenue

  • The SMA drug market was valued at approximately USD 880 million in 2021.
  • Risdiplam generated an estimated USD 150-200 million in global sales in 2022, claiming about 20% of the SMA drug market.
  • Spinraza remains the market leader with over USD 600 million in annual sales, while Zolgensma captures a smaller share but commands premium pricing.

Healthcare reimbursement policies

  • In the U.S., Medicaid and commercial insurers coverage for risdiplam is widespread, with prior authorization required.
  • Pricing heavily influences access, with payers favoring established therapies due to negotiated discounts.

What are the key price points and reimbursement policies?

List prices:

  • Risdiplam (Evrysdi): Approximate list price is USD 340,000 per year per patient.
  • Spinraza: USD 750,000 for initial loading doses; USD 125,000 annually thereafter.
  • Zolgensma: Single-dose therapy at approximately USD 2.1 million.

Reimbursement considerations:

  • The actual negotiated prices with payers are lower than list prices.
  • Average reimbursement discounts for SMA therapies range between 20% and 40%, depending on payor type and region.

What are the projections for market growth and pricing?

Market growth:

  • The SMA market is projected to grow at an annual CAGR of 8-10% through 2030.
  • Rising diagnosis rates and expanded age indications support growth.

Price projections:

Year Estimated Price Range (USD) Comments
2023 USD 330,000 – USD 370,000 Slight variations based on negotiations and regions
2025 USD 310,000 – USD 360,000 Potential price stabilization, slight declines
2030 USD 290,000 – USD 340,000 Price pressure from biosimilar and competitive entries

Drivers of price stability:

  • Evidence of efficacy and safety
  • Lack of biosimilar competition (biosimilars are unlikely due to molecular complexity)
  • Market exclusivity until 2030, based on patent protections

What are the risks to future pricing and market share?

  • Emergence of biosimilar or generic risdiplam variants could erode prices post-2030 if regulatory pathways open.
  • New therapies that demonstrate superiority or reduced cost could shift market share.
  • Pricing regulations in major markets like the EU or U.S. could impose price caps or penalties.

Summary of key data points

Aspect Data
Current sales USD 150-200 million (global, 2022)

Market share 20% (2022) for risdiplam in SMA market
Competition Spinraza, Zolgensma
Growth rate 8-10% CAGR expected to 2030
Patent expiration ~2030

Key Takeaways

  • Risdiplam's market entry has increased SMA treatment options, capturing a significant share but not surpassing Spinraza.
  • Pricing remains high, but expected slight declines will likely continue due to market maturation.
  • Future growth driven by increased diagnosis and access, limited biosimilar presence, with pricing pressures possibly emerging after patent protections expire.
  • Market expansion depends on regulatory approvals, reimbursement strategies, and potential new therapies.

FAQs

  1. What factors influence risdiplam’s pricing today?
    Market competition, manufacturing costs, reimbursement negotiations, and regulatory policies.

  2. When will biosimilar versions of risdiplam become available?
    Likely after patent expiration around 2030, assuming no litigation or regulatory hurdles.

  3. How does risdiplam compare cost-wise to other SMA drugs?
    It is less expensive than Zolgensma but more costly than generic or off-label treatments, with a comparable annual price to Spinraza.

  4. What regions pose the greatest growth opportunities for risdiplam?
    Europe, Japan, and emerging markets where SMA diagnosis rates increase and access expands.

  5. Could combination therapies impact future risdiplam prices?
    Yes, if combination regimens prove superior, they could either limit or boost demand, influencing pricing strategies.
