The global veterinary monoclonal antibodies market is projected to reach USD 3.06 billion by 2030, from USD 1.70 billion in 2025, with a CAGR of 12.4%. This growth is primarily driven by the rising number of companion animals and pet ownership, as well as growing concerns about chronic diseases in animals. The market is further supported by increased adoption of pet insurance, higher healthcare spending for animals, and heightened awareness campaigns by the government and animal welfare groups.
The prominent players in the veterinary monoclonal antibodies market include Zoetis Services LLC (US), Elanco (US), and Merck & Co., Inc. (US). These players are continuously developing new products and adopting strategies like partnerships and expansions to strengthen their market reach. For instance, in September 2024, Zoetis Services partnered with the Arthritis Foundation (US) to raise awareness about osteoarthritis (OA) pain in pets. Through this partnership, the company promotes Librela, its FDA-approved, once-monthly injectable monoclonal antibody for dogs, as a breakthrough therapy for managing OA pain, thereby improving mobility and quality of life. In August 2024, Elanco announced a USD 130 million investment and a 25,000-sq-ft expansion of its biologics facility in Elwood, Kansas. This upgrade will double production capacity to support manufacturing of its Canine Parvovirus Monoclonal Antibody (CPMA), the first USDA conditionally approved mAb for parvovirus, and prepare the plant for upcoming mAb therapies.
