Some of the key facts of the Hepatitis D Market Report:
The Hepatitis D market size is anticipated to grow with a significant CAGR during the study period (2020-2034).
In October 2026, EIT Pharma presented new analyses from its lonafarnib development program at the 5th Delta Cure International Meeting in Milan, Italy. The presentations examined the durability of treatment response after discontinuation, histological improvements, and the clinical significance of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) changes following treatment cessation in patients with chronic Hepatitis D. Lonafarnib remains an investigational oral therapy, and its New Drug Application (NDA) is under FDA review.
In September 2026, Mirum Pharmaceuticals announced positive topline results from the Phase III portion of the AZURE-1 trial evaluating brelovitug, an investigational monoclonal antibody, in patients with chronic Hepatitis D. At Week 24, the combined endpoint of virological response and ALT normalization was achieved by 56% of patients receiving 300 mg weekly and 45% receiving 900 mg every four weeks, compared with 0% in the delayed-treatment group. The treatment demonstrated a favorable safety profile, with no new safety signals reported. Mirum planned to submit a Biologics License Application (BLA) in the first half of 2027, subject to further development and regulatory progress.
In August 2026, EIT Pharma announced that the FDA had accepted its NDA for lonafarnib for the treatment of chronic Hepatitis D. The submission is supported by the Phase III D-LIVR study, which enrolled more than 400 patients across 21 countries. Lonafarnib is an investigational oral farnesyltransferase inhibitor designed to interfere with the HDV life cycle. The candidate has received Breakthrough Therapy, Fast Track, and Orphan Drug designations. FDA acceptance means the application has entered review; it does not mean the drug has been approved.
In May 2026, The U.S. FDA approved Hepcludex (bulevirtide-gmod), developed by Gilead Sciences, for adults with chronic Hepatitis D without cirrhosis or with compensated cirrhosis. It became the first FDA-approved treatment for chronic HDV infection in the United States. Bulevirtide is an NTCP-directed viral entry inhibitor that prevents HDV from entering liver cells. Approval under the accelerated approval pathway was supported by Phase III MYR301 data demonstrating improved combined virological and biochemical response compared with delayed treatment.
In the 7MM, the United States recorded the highest number of diagnosed prevalent cases of Hepatitis D virus in 2023.
In the U.S., males had a higher number of diagnosed prevalent cases of Hepatitis D compared to females in 2023.
In the U.S., the 18–34 age group had the highest number of diagnosed cases of Hepatitis D in 2023.
Key Hepatitis D Companies: Gilead Sciences, Eiger BioPharmaceuticals, Janssen Research & Development, and others
Key Hepatitis D Therapies: HEPCLUDEX (bulevirtide), Lonafarnib; Peginterferon Lambda-1a, JNJ-3989, and others
The Hepatitis D epidemiology based on gender analyzed that Hepatitis D is more prevalent in males as compared to females
Hepatitis D Overview
Hepatitis D (HDV) is a rare but severe liver infection caused by the hepatitis D virus. It occurs only in individuals already infected with hepatitis B (HBV), as HDV requires HBV to replicate. The infection can lead to rapid liver damage, increasing the risk of cirrhosis, liver failure, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Transmission occurs through contact with infected blood or bodily fluids or often via injection drug use. Currently, no specific antiviral treatment is widely available, but HBV vaccination can help prevent Hepatitis D by preventing HBV infection.

Hepatitis D Market Drivers
Rising Disease Awareness and Diagnosis: Growing awareness of Hepatitis D virus (HDV) infection and improved screening among individuals with Hepatitis B are supporting earlier diagnosis and treatment.
High Unmet Medical Needs: The risk of rapid disease progression, liver cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma is driving demand for more effective treatment options.
Advancements in Drug Development: Increasing research into novel antivirals, entry inhibitors, and other targeted therapies is expanding the Hepatitis D treatment pipeline.
Increasing Clinical Trial Activity: Growing pharmaceutical investment and clinical research are supporting the development of innovative therapies aimed at improving viral control and liver outcomes.
Potential for Improved Treatment Outcomes: The development of therapies targeting HDV replication and viral entry is creating opportunities to improve disease management and expand the treatment landscape.
Hepatitis D Market Barriers
Limited Treatment Options: Despite therapeutic advances, treatment choices remain limited, and not all patients achieve sustained virological responses.
Diagnostic Challenges: Limited access to HDV testing, underdiagnosis, and low screening rates among people with Hepatitis B can delay treatment initiation.
High Clinical Development Costs: Developing and evaluating novel therapies requires substantial investment, particularly for a relatively uncommon infection.
Regulatory and Clinical Trial Challenges: Variations in disease progression, liver disease severity, and virological responses can complicate clinical trial design and regulatory approval.
Limited Access and Affordability: High treatment costs, restricted reimbursement, and disparities in healthcare infrastructure may limit access to advanced therapies, particularly in resource-limited regions.
