- Growing funding and grants for rare diseases research: The increased funding and grants for rare diseases research provides a major opportunity for the global Allan-Herndon-Dudley syndrome (AHDS) market.

Global Allan-Herndon-Dudley syndrome (AHDS) (MCT8 deficiency) Treatment Market - Restraints
- Lack of awareness about AHDS: A major factor limiting the growth of the global Allan-Herndon-Dudley syndrome (AHDS) treatment market is lack of awareness about the condition. AHDS is an extremely rare genetic disorder and there is low recognition of its symptoms even within the medical community. Due to the rarity of the disease and limitations in diagnostic testing availability, many cases continue to go undiagnosed. This severely restricts patients' access to potential treatment options.
