Competitive Intelligence, Growth, Opportunities and Forecasts To 2023
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory disease in which the myelin sheaths around the axons
of the brain and spinal cord are damaged, leading to demyelination and a wide range of signs and
symptoms. MS affects 2.5 million people worldwide each year and is the most debilitating
neurological disease in young adults.
GlobalData epidemiologists expect that the number of prevalent and incident cases of MS will
increase during the forecast period (2013-2023) in the 10MM. In 2013, GlobalData
epidemiologists forecast that there were a total of 904,908 prevalent cases of MS in the 10MM,
and by 2023 GlobalData epidemiologists forecast that the number of prevalent cases will grow to
940,413 prevalent cases. During the forecast period, India will have the highest annual growth
rate (AGR) at 1.99%, Spain will have the second highest (AGR: 1.05%), and China will have the
third highest (AGR: 0.93%).

GlobalData epidemiologists used country-specific sources published by peer-reviewed journals
to estimate the incidence and prevalence of MS in each of the 10MM. To provide a thorough
description of the MS patient population in each country, GlobalData epidemiologists segmented
MS incident and prevalent cases by age and sex, both of which strongly affect the epidemiology
of MS. Moreover, cases are segmented into three common sub-types: relapsing-remitting MS,
primary progressive MS, and secondary progressive MS. A major strength of this analysis is that
the forecast methodology was consistent across the 10MM to allow for a meaningful comparison
of the patient populations in each country.
