The merger was completed on June 30, 2022, resulting in 2Seventy bio becoming a publicly traded company and replacing the ticker symbol AACQ with TWO.

Top Products and Market Share

Top Products:

• SAR441720: A small molecule that mimics erythroferrone (ErFe), a hormone produced in the liver. ErFe plays a crucial role in regulating iron homeostasis and stimulating red blood cell production. SAR441720 is designed to treat anemia in CKD patients who have inadequate response to current standard of care, such as erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs).

Market Share: 2Seventy bio is a clinical-stage company, and SAR441720 is not currently on the market. Therefore, the company does not yet have any market share. However, the potential market opportunity for CKD-associated anemia is significant. According to a 2022 report from Grand View Research, the global market for CKD-related anemia treatment was estimated to be valued at USD 2.6 billion in 2021 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 8.4% from 2022 to 2030.

Product performance and market reception: SAR441720 is still in Phase 2 clinical trials, so it is too early to evaluate its market performance and reception. Initial data from the Phase 2 trial is expected in the fourth quarter of 2023.

Total Addressable Market

The global CKD market is estimated to reach a value of USD 273.4 billion by 2027, according to a 2023 report by Fortune Business Insights. The US CKD market is expected to reach USD 86 billion in 2028, according to a 2022 report by Grand View Research.
