The strong efficacy and impending market approval of Merck's sotatercept for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) represent a clear emerging threat. Sotatercept, with a novel mechanism of action (targeting Activin receptor type IIA) and demonstrated significant improvements in clinical worsening and survival in its Phase 3 STELLAR trial, is poised to enter the PAH market potentially before Gossamer Bio's lead candidate, Seralutinib (GB002), has completed its Phase 3 trials and gained approval. This could significantly constrain the future market opportunity and pricing power for Seralutinib by setting a new, higher standard of care and capturing substantial market share early, even if Seralutinib is successful in its own trials.

Gossamer Bio (symbol: GOSS) focuses primarily on the development of seralutinib (GB002), an inhaled tyrosine kinase inhibitor. This product candidate is being developed for two main indications: Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) and Pulmonary Hypertension associated with Interstitial Lung Disease (PH-ILD).
The addressable markets for seralutinib are:
- Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH): The global PAH market is projected to reach $11.2 billion by 2030. In the U.S. alone, there are approximately 50,000 PAH patients. The U.S. PAH treatment market was valued at approximately $3.9 billion in 2022 and is expected to increase. DelveInsight estimates the U.S. PAH market was approximately $6 billion in 2024. Another estimate for the broader pulmonary hypertension market, which includes PAH, suggests it could exceed $7 billion globally by 2030.
- Pulmonary Hypertension associated with Interstitial Lung Disease (PH-ILD): This market is globally estimated to include 400,000 patients. The U.S. PH-ILD market was valued at $1.1 billion in 2023 and is anticipated to grow considerably through 2034. Gossamer Bio believes seralutinib could capture a share in a $3 billion total addressable market (TAM) for PH-ILD.
Gossamer Bio also has other product candidates in its pipeline. GB004 was being developed for inflammatory bowel disease, including ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, but Phase 2 study results in ulcerative colitis did not show statistically significant or clinically meaningful differences. Another candidate, GB5121, is an oral, CNS-penetrant BTK inhibitor for the treatment of PCNSL (Primary Central Nervous System Lymphoma) and other CNS oncology indications. The global BTK inhibitor market, which includes the class of drug GB5121 belongs to, was estimated at $9.4 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow to $28.9 billion by 2034. The North American BTK inhibitor market alone was $3.8 billion in 2024, with the U.S. contributing $3.1 billion in 2023. However, a specific addressable market size for GB5121's targeted indications (PCNSL) within this broader market was not identified.

Expected Drivers of Future Revenue Growth for Gossamer Bio (GOSS)
Over the next 2-3 years, Gossamer Bio's revenue growth is expected to be primarily driven by the advancement and potential commercialization of its lead product candidate, seralutinib, along with its strategic collaboration.
- Successful Commercialization of Seralutinib for Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH): Gossamer Bio's most significant revenue driver is the successful outcome of the Phase 3 PROSERA study for seralutinib in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Topline results from this study are anticipated in February 2026. Positive results, leading to subsequent regulatory approvals and market launch, would mark the company's transition from a clinical-stage to a commercial-stage entity, generating product sales revenue.
- Advancement of Seralutinib for Pulmonary Hypertension Associated with Interstitial Lung Disease (PH-ILD): The initiation and progression of the Phase 3 SERENATA trial for seralutinib in PH-ILD, with site activations expected in the fourth quarter of 2025, represent another key driver. Successful clinical development and eventual commercialization in this indication would expand the addressable market for seralutinib and contribute significantly to future revenue streams.
- Leveraging the Strategic Partnership with Chiesi: Gossamer Bio's ongoing strategic partnership with Chiesi is a crucial element for future revenue. This collaboration currently contributes through cost reimbursements and is expected to be instrumental in the successful commercial launch of seralutinib for PAH, assuming regulatory approval. The partnership provides financial support and commercialization expertise, which will facilitate market penetration and revenue generation.
