Key Players & Recent Developments in the Pompe Disease Market

Amicus Therapeutics — Innovation in Pompe Disease Treatments

Amicus Therapeutics has been at the forefront of advancing novel therapeutic options in the Pompe disease market. Its focus has been on combination and next-generation enzyme replacement strategies:

• First-in-class two-component therapy approval: Amicus received FDA approval for Pombiliti® (cipaglucosidase alfa-atga) plus Opfolda® (miglustat) for adults with late-onset Pompe disease who are not adequately responding to existing ERTs. This approval marked a major milestone because it introduced a two-component therapy with enhanced clinical activity over traditional enzyme replacement therapy alone. 
• Strategic financing and launch success: Following this approval, Amicus secured significant financing (about $430 million from Blackstone Life Sciences and Blackstone Credit) to support the commercial launch and global development of its Pompe therapy portfolio. 
• Acquisition activity and portfolio impact: In late 2025, Amicus became a key part of the Pompe disease market narrative after announcing its acquisition by BioMarin Pharmaceutical highlighting the strategic value of its Pompe disease assets. 

2. BioMarin Pharmaceutical

BioMarin Pharmaceutical has been aggressively expanding its position in rare diseases, including Pompe disease, through strategic acquisitions and clinical innovation:

• Acquisition of Amicus Therapeutics: In December 2025, BioMarin entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Amicus Therapeutics in an all-cash transaction valued at approximately $4.8 billion. This move will bring Amicus’ approved Pompe therapies Pombiliti + Opfolda into the BioMarin portfolio and is expected to expand treatment access globally once regulatory clearance and closing conditions are met (anticipated in 2026). 
• Portfolio and financial implications: The acquisition is projected to accelerate BioMarin’s revenue growth and be accretive to earnings within the first-year post-closing, supporting expansion of its rare disease franchise. 
• Pipeline progression: The company is also progressing BMN-701 into later-phase development, with plans to initiate Phase 2/3 switching trials that could support broader clinical validation in patients already treated with standard therapies. 

3. Genzyme (Sanofi)

Genzyme, a Sanofi company, has long been a foundational player in the Pompe disease market with enzyme replacement therapies and ongoing research advancements:

• Legacy ERT leadership: Genzyme originally developed Myozyme® (alglucosidase alfa), the first FDA-approved treatment for Pompe disease, and continues to manufacture it to meet global patient needs.
• Next-generation enzyme therapy: Nexviazyme® (avalglucosidase alfa) is a second-generation enzyme replacement therapy that has demonstrated meaningful clinical safety, benefit, and extended durability across Pompe patient groups. Recent data highlighted improvements in muscle function indicators, especially in pediatric populations with infantile onset. 
• Strategic partnerships: Genzyme has pursued collaborations to deepen its Pompe disease focus, including strategic alliances with other biotechnology firms for development of novel therapeutic approaches ensuring its continued relevance in the evolving treatment landscape. 

Competitive Landscape & Opportunity Focus

The Pompe disease market remains concentrated among established rare disease and biopharmaceutical leaders, with a growing array of clinical trial entrants seeking to diversify treatment options. Competitive differentiation is increasingly based on therapy efficacy, long-term safety profiles, and patient support services that drive adherence and outcomes.

Strategic Outlook

As the Pompe disease market evolves, stakeholders are prioritising sustainable growth via innovation, cross-sector collaboration, and enhanced patient education. With supportive regulatory frameworks, expanding clinical evidence, and increasing global disease recognition, the market is positioned for meaningful progress through 2034 and beyond.
