LAS VEGAS, April 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- DelveInsight's "ENTYVIO Market Size, Forecast, and Market Insight Report" highlights the details around ENTYVIO, a gut-selective biologic developed by Takeda Pharmaceutical. The report provides product descriptions, patent details, and competitor products (marketed and emerging therapies) of ENTYVIO. The report also highlights the historical and forecasted sales from 2020 to 2034 segmented into 7MM [the United States, the EU4 (Germany, France, Italy, and Spain), the United Kingdom, and Japan].
Takeda Pharmaceutical's ENTYVIO (vedolizumab) Overview
Vedolizumab is a biologic medication approved for both intravenous (IV) and subcutaneous (SC) use, with regulatory approvals varying by region. The SC formulation is authorized for use in the United States, European Union, and over 50 other countries, while the IV formulation has received approval in more than 70 countries, including the US and the EU. Collectively, vedolizumab IV and SC have accumulated over one million patient-years of global exposure.
Vedolizumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody that selectively targets the alpha4beta7 integrin, blocking its interaction with mucosal addressin cell adhesion molecule 1 (MAdCAM-1) - a protein primarily found on blood vessels and lymph nodes in the gastrointestinal tract. This integrin is present on certain white blood cells involved in the inflammatory processes of ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. By disrupting the binding between alpha4beta7 integrin and MAdCAM-1, vedolizumab may reduce the migration of these immune cells into the gut, thereby decreasing inflammation.
ENTYVIO Dosage
For adults with ulcerative colitis, the advised dosage of ENTYVIO is 300 mg given through intravenous infusion at weeks 0, 2, and 6, followed by maintenance infusions every 8 weeks. Treatment should be discontinued if no clinical improvement is observed by week 14.

Crohn's disease is a progressive type of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that results in chronic inflammation throughout the gastrointestinal tract, most commonly affecting the terminal ileum and colon. This inflammation can lead to complications such as strictures, fistulas, and ulcers. In 2024, there were 1.1 million diagnosed prevalent cases of Crohn's disease in the United States.
Current treatment approaches primarily include biologics such as adalimumab (HUMIRA and its biosimilars), ustekinumab (STELARA), infliximab (REMICADE and biosimilars), along with systemic corticosteroids, immunosuppressants, 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA), and other therapies. Among these, adalimumab held the largest market share in the 7MM in 2024, generating around USD 4 billion in revenue for Crohn's disease treatment.
In 2024, the market size of Crohn's disease was highest in the US among the 7MM, accounting for approximately USD 8 billion, which is further expected to increase at a CAGR of 4.5%. The Crohn's disease market is projected to expand due to the introduction of novel therapies with improved efficacy and more convenient routes of administration, broader use of biologics in pediatric populations, growing commercial opportunities in biologic-treated patients, advancements in biomarker development for early diagnosis, and the overall rising prevalence of the disease.

Ulcerative colitis is one of the primary types of chronic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) affecting the gastrointestinal tract. It is an idiopathic and long-standing inflammation of the colonic mucosa, typically presenting with symptoms like diarrhea, abdominal discomfort, and rectal bleeding. In 2023, there were an estimated 3.1 million diagnosed prevalent cases of ulcerative colitis across the 7MM, with numbers expected to rise over the forecast period.
According to current US treatment guidelines, mild-to-moderate cases are initially managed with aminosalicylates or by using corticosteroids for induction followed by maintenance therapy with aminosalicylates. For patients with moderate-to-severe disease, maintenance treatment may involve immunosuppressants like azathioprine or 6-mercaptopurine after corticosteroid induction. Alternatively, biologics-particularly anti-TNF agents such as infliximab or adalimumab-can be used alone or alongside immunosuppressants to achieve and sustain remission and mucosal healing.
The treatment landscape across the 7MM is categorized into commonly used drug classes, including conventional therapies, anti-TNF agents, anti-adhesion molecule therapies, JAK inhibitors, and others, reflecting some variations in prescribing practices.
Looking ahead, the anticipated introduction of novel therapies, increased focus on early detection, enhanced use in secondary care, improved implementation strategies, and growing disease awareness are likely to contribute to more effective management of ulcerative colitis. As a result, the ulcerative colitis market will grow from USD 8.4 billion in 2023 at a significant CAGR by 2034. However, the high costs of new treatments and the financial burden of disease complications may pose challenges to widespread adoption.

Emerging Competitors of ENTYVIO
Despite the presence of biosimilars, innovation in Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis treatment remains strong, with several emerging therapies exploring new inflammatory pathways to improve efficacy and long-term outcomes. RHB-104, a combination macrolide antibiotic, is in Phase III trials targeting potential mycobacterial involvement. VELSIPITY, an S1P receptor modulator, works by limiting lymphocyte migration and reducing inflammation. TREMFYA, which inhibits IL-23, is under evaluation for its immune-modulating effects, while ABBV-154, a TNF inhibitor conjugated with a steroid, aims to enhance TNF suppression.
Additional pipeline therapies include Merck's TL1A inhibitor Tulisokibart (PRA023/MK-7240) in Phase III and Pfizer's JAK3 inhibitor LITFULO in Phase II. Teva and Sanofi are also developing Duvakitug, a monoclonal antibody targeting TNFSF15. These investigational drugs represent significant progress for patients unresponsive to current treatments.
A range of other promising candidates are in development, each targeting unique pathways. Landos Biopharma's Omilancor (BT-11) is in Phase II and acts via LANCL2, while AVB-114 from Avobis Bio/Alimentiv is also in Phase II. Abivax S.A.'s Obefazimod (ABX464) is being studied for its ability to upregulate miR-124. Roche's RVT-3101 (RG6631), an anti-TL1A antibody, is in Phase II trials, and Mesoblast's RYONCIL (Remestemcel-L), a mesenchymal stem cell therapy, is progressing in Phase III, offering regenerative potential.
Other noteworthy agents in Phase II include Zasocitinib (TAK-279) from Takeda, a TYK2 inhibitor; AZD7798 from AstraZeneca, targeting CCR9; Sanofi's Balinatunfib (SAR441566), which blocks TNFR1 signaling; AGMB-129 from Agomab Therapeutics, targeting ALK5/TGFßR1; MBF-118 by Medibiofarma, a PPAR? partial agonist; and MORF-057 by Eli Lilly and Morphic Therapeutic, an a4ß7 integrin inhibitor.

ENTYVIO Market Dynamics
ENTYVIO has established itself as a leading biologic therapy in the treatment of moderate to severe ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. As a gut-selective integrin antagonist, ENTYVIO offers a differentiated mechanism of action compared to anti-TNF therapies, which contributes to its positioning as a safer long-term option, particularly for patients at risk of systemic immunosuppression. Its favorable safety profile and efficacy in inducing and maintaining remission have led to its widespread adoption, particularly among patients who have failed previous therapies.
The biologics market for inflammatory bowel disease is highly competitive, with key players including HUMIRA, REMICADE, STELARA, and newer entrants like SKYRIZI and RINVOQ. ENTYVIO has managed to capture significant market share by appealing to both gastroenterologists and patients seeking gut-targeted treatment. Its intravenous formulation, though initially a barrier, has been partially offset by the 2019 launch of the subcutaneous version in global markets, enhancing patient convenience and adherence. However, uptake in the US for the SC version has been slower due to regulatory timelines and physician inertia.
Biosimilar competition is also a factor shaping ENTYVIO's future market dynamics. While biosimilars of anti-TNFs are gaining traction, ENTYVIO currently remains insulated due to patent protections, with biosimilar entry expected post-2026. This provides Takeda a limited window to maximize revenue, expand its patient base, and reinforce brand loyalty. Strategic moves such as expanding indications, enhancing real-world evidence, and increasing global access will be crucial to maintaining its competitive edge.
Moreover, the shift in payer dynamics and healthcare costcontainment efforts are increasingly influencing biologic prescribing behavior. Takeda must continue to demonstrate value through outcome-based contracts and cost-effectiveness data. As newer agents with novel mechanisms enter the market, maintaining differentiation and proving long-term value will be central to ENTYVIO's sustained success.
