Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) Market Outlook 2025-2035:
The 7 major Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) market reached a value of USD 13.4 Million in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the 7MM to reach USD 19.1 Million by 2035, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 3.29% during 2025-2035. The NAFLD market is driving due to growth in the acceptance of noninvasive and less invasive diagnostic and management options: advanced imaging, biomarker assessments, and management programs based on lifestyle. Those approaches are significantly effective in both the detection of the disease process and the ability to monitor progressive disease, rather than having patients undergo an invasive liver biopsy. Emerging technologies, such as transient elastography (FibroScan), magnetic resonance imaging-proton density fat fraction (MRI-PDFF), and serum biomarkers, offer highly accurate measurements of liver fat content and fibrosis levels, increasing the accuracy of diagnosis and improving patient compliance. Such advances avoid the discomfort and risks of more traditional diagnostic approaches, providing patients with more convenient, efficient, and patient-friendly solutions. This increased interest in non-invasive diagnostics is revolutionizing the approach to NAFLD management and is associated with improved clinical outcomes.
Advances in Early Detection and Diagnostic Technologies: Driving the Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) Market
Advanced technologies in diagnostic and therapeutic approaches have been significantly impacting the Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease market. These advances contribute to improvements in disease management and patient outcomes. Advanced imaging techniques, including transient elastography (FibroScan), magnetic resonance imaging-proton density fat fraction (MRI-PDFF), and shear wave elastography, can allow for more accurate visualization and quantification of liver fat and fibrosis. These technologies are reducing the use of invasive liver biopsies, providing more patient-friendly, safer alternatives. Biomarker-based diagnostics complementing imaging advancements, such as serum biomarkers CK-18, ELF scores help identify early on liver inflammation and fibrosis. Molecular diagnostics employing NGS, gene expression profiling are emerging tools for identifying genetic predispositions, metabolic factors contributing to disease progression. These will lead to a tailored treatment approach. The involvement of Artificial Intelligence in imaging and diagnostics increases accuracy, thus allowing automated grouping, severity estimation, and real-time tracking of disease progression. This reduces subjective evaluations and supports more informed clinical decisions. On the therapeutical level, there has been growing prominence in non-invasive and minimal-invasive techniques. Among the non-invasive ones, some lifestyle management intervention, coupled with digital health tools, are finding widespread adoption and popularity, accompanied by continuous observation through wearable equipment on metabolic marker tracking, which offers consultation diagnosis and prescription under telemedicine technologies. In settings with few experts on hepatology, it assures early interventions along with efficient and improved delivery. The integration of modern diagnostic and therapeutic technologies fosters a paradigm shift in NAFLD management, reducing disease burden, enhancing patient engagement, and driving better long-term outcomes.

Development of Novel Therapies and Pharmacological Treatments: Contributing to Market Expansion
The Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) market is expanding with the introduction of innovative therapies combined with advanced pharmacological treatments. Emerging drug classes are being developed to target key metabolic, inflammatory, and fibrotic pathways associated with NAFLD, offering more precise and effective disease management. New oral agents, including selective thyroid hormone receptor agonists (like Resmetirom) and fibroblast growth factor analogs (such as Efruxifermin), demonstrate significant efficacy with fewer side effects, improved patient satisfaction, and better long-term outcomes. Research in biologic therapies is rapidly advancing, particularly for moderate to severe cases of NAFLD involving chronic inflammation and fibrosis. Monoclonal antibodies targeting pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin-17 (IL-17) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), are being explored to mitigate inflammation and halt disease progression. Such biologics can address inflammation of the liver besides regulating immune-related elements that trigger NAFLD. The modern-day drug delivery system, ranging from liposomes and nanoparticle-based carriers to hydrogels, enables drugs to be released within the livers, providing more concentration in localized areas rather than systemic absorption. Under investigation are adjunct therapies focused on recovery of the health of the gut-liver axis and metabolic equilibrium, such as probiotics, prebiotics, and immunomodulators that strengthen natural host defenses against inflammation of the liver and dysregulation of metabolism. Combination therapies that merge metabolic regulators with anti-inflammatory or fibrosis-targeting compounds will be effective treatments for the multi-faceted pathophysiology of NAFLD. Non-invasive pharmaceutical solutions include bioactive peptides, and smaller molecule inhibitors of lipid metabolism and oxidative stress, which achieve greater popularity because of ease of administration and a patient-centric approach. Collectively, these elements shape the future of NAFLD management, promoting hopeful possibilities for effectiveness and personalization in the treatment strategy.

Early clinical trials have demonstrated significant histological improvements and a favorable safety profile.
Pemafibrate: Kowa Pharmaceutical
Pemafibrate, a selective PPAR-α modulator (SPPARM-α), has shown potential in the treatment of NAFLD by improving lipid metabolism and reducing liver fat accumulation. Its ability to lower triglyceride levels and enhance insulin sensitivity positions it as a promising candidate for mitigating disease progression in patients with metabolic dysfunction.
Clesacostat: Pfizer
Clesacostat is an investigational acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) inhibitor developed by Pfizer for the treatment of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). By inhibiting ACC, clesacostat aims to reduce hepatic lipogenesis, thereby decreasing liver fat accumulation and addressing metabolic dysfunctions associated with these conditions. It is often studied in combination with ervogastat, a diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 2 (DGAT2) inhibitor, to target multiple pathways involved in lipid metabolism. This combination has received Fast Track Designation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of NASH with liver fibrosis.
