• Bullous pemphigoid (BP), a subepidermal autoimmune blistering disease primarily affecting the elderly, currently lacks approved therapies in the United States, creating a significant unmet need.
• The BP treatment landscape is dominated by off-label corticosteroids and immunosuppressants, highlighting the urgent need for targeted and approved therapies to improve patient outcomes.
• Several therapies are in advanced Phase III clinical development, including AstraZeneca's Fasenra, Sanofi/Regeneron's Dupixent, and Akari Therapeutics' nomacopan, signaling potential paradigm shift.
• The influx of pipeline therapies aims to address unmet needs, such as diagnostic biomarkers and vulnerable patient population, and could reshape the market dynamics in bullous pemphigoid.
