Market Dynamics
Industry Overview
The rare disease therapeutics market is characterized by high unmet needs, regulatory incentives (e.g., orphan drug designation), and potentially high pricing power. Development is challenging due to small patient populations and the need for specialized expertise.
Positioning
Palvella positions itself as a leader in rare, genetically-defined dermatologic diseases, particularly PC. Its competitive advantage lies in its focus and specialized expertise in this niche area.
Total Addressable Market (TAM)
