Few of the countries have laws to determine the treatment and approach to orphan disease, and there are criteria that establish whether or not a disease can be classified in the first place. In Japan, a disease that affects less than 50,000 persons is an orphan disease. In US, this number is 200,000. ¹

Orphan drugs is a niche buster because they provide an ideal venue for companies to offset the lapsing patents and shrinking pipelines of blockbuster drugs. In such cases orphan drugs bring forth a new business model. ¹
