However, the market faces challenges such as rising pet care costs, which can limit treatment adoption. Furthermore, strict regulatory guidelines and lengthy approval times for drugs further restrain market growth. Despite these hurdles, expanding therapeutic indications beyond dermatology and osteoarthritis continues to create new market opportunities.
"By animal type, the canine segment held the highest share in 2024."
The canine segment held the largest market share in 2024, driven by rising pet dog ownership and increasing spending on animal healthcare. Dogs are highly prone to skin conditions such as allergies, fungal infections, and ectoparasitic infestations, which require frequent dermatological treatments. The growing trend of pet humanization and the demand for premium veterinary care further support market growth. Additionally, advancements in dermatological treatments, including biologics and targeted monoclonal antibody therapies, improve treatment outcomes for dogs, solidifying the segment's dominance in the market.
"By route of administration, the subcutaneous segment is projected to record the highest CAGR between 2025 and 2030."
The subcutaneous segment is expected to grow at the fastest rate during the forecast period due to its ease of administration and better pet owner compliance. Rising veterinary recommendations for systemic treatments over topical solutions and the ongoing development of new monoclonal antibodies targeting infectious diseases are increasing demand. Moreover, innovations in monoclonal antibodies targeting infectious diseases further support the segment's growth in the veterinary monoclonal antibodies market.
"By product, cytopoint was the leading segment in 2024."
The cytopoint segment held the largest market share in 2024, driven by its status as the first and only FDA- and EMA-approved monoclonal antibody therapy for treating canine atopic dermatitis. Additionally, the high prevalence of atopic dermatitis in dogs has increased demand for cytopoint due to its proven efficacy, safety profile, and rising adoption by veterinarians. The growing willingness of pet owners to invest in advanced veterinary treatments has further fueled market growth.
"By therapy type, dermatology surpassed other segments in 2024."
The dermatology segment held the largest market share in 2024 due to the rising prevalence of chronic diseases such as atopic dermatitis in dogs. Additionally, growing awareness of advanced treatment options like Cytopoint by Zoetis (US) has gained significant traction due to its long-lasting relief and minimal side effects in treating allergic and atopic dermatitis in dogs. The willingness to spend on pet healthcare has further driven this market growth.
"By end user, veterinary hospitals/specialty centers are expected to exhibit the fastest growth during the forecast period."
Veterinary hospitals/specialty centers are expected to grow at the fastest rate, fueled by the rise in veterinary visits and the availability of specialized pet healthcare services. These facilities offer comprehensive treatment options, including advanced diagnostics, prescription medications, and surgical procedures for various conditions. Additionally, pet insurance coverage for dermatological treatments encourages pet owners to seek veterinary care, boosting demand in this segment.
"North America accounted for the largest share in 2024."
North America held the largest market share in 2024, supported by a well-established veterinary healthcare infrastructure and high pet ownership rates. The region has a strong presence of leading market players investing in R&D for innovative monoclonal antibody therapies. Rising awareness about pet health, along with increasing spending on veterinary care, also drives market growth. The growing demand for premium pet care products further contributes to North America's dominance in the global veterinary monoclonal antibodies market.
