	<abstract>&lt;span style=&quot;line-height:2;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:Arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:black&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;Introduction: &lt;/b&gt;The role of Plasma-Derived Medicinal Products (PDMPs) in managing life-threatening diseases is remarkable. Human plasma as a raw material for PDMPs is obtained from volunteers through apheresis or whole blood collection. The global PDMPs market in 2021 shows an average annual growth rate of 7.4% since 1996 &lt;span dir=&quot;RTL&quot; lang=&quot;AR-SA&quot;&gt;which&lt;/span&gt; is higher than the average annual pharmaceutical market growth rate. In line with WHO policies, Iran has improved its national voluntary non-remunerated donors (VNRD) program to supply the local PDMPs market. This study shows the 10-year Iran PDMPs market evolution to assess its self-sufficiency&lt;span dir=&quot;RTL&quot; lang=&quot;FA&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color:black&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;Method: &lt;/b&gt;We conducted a cross-sectional study from 2012 to 2021 to assess the self-sufficiency rate of Iran&amp;rsquo;s plasma industry for PDMPs including Albumin, Immune globulins, and Antihemophilic Factors. In addition, we show the gap between market supply and demand to lighten the self-sufficiency future.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color:black&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;Result: &lt;/b&gt;The annual growth rate of total collected plasma was 18.9% over 10 years in Iran from 2012 to 2021. Although the consumption rate of intravenous Immune globulins has increased from 777 kg to 2,108 Kg, due to a significant increase in local plasma production, its self-sufficiency rate increased from 53% to 93%.&amp;nbsp; Similarly, the demand rate for Albumin grew from 21% in 2012 to 90% in 2021.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color:black&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;Discussion: &lt;/b&gt;Although local plasma production in Iran significantly provided plasma self-sufficiency as a raw material, local market demand for PDMPs is mainly supplied through contract fractionation with European fractionators.&amp;nbsp; Access to complete self-sufficiency in Iran needs increasing plasma production, as well as developing major local plasma fractionators.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</abstract>
