Gene therapy is a medical binomial that allows for the modification of a person’s genes in order to develop antibodies for treating or curating diseases. Gene therapies can work by employing several mechanisms such as replacing a disease-causing gene with a healthy variation of the gene or by inactivating a disease-causing gene that does not have the proper functionality. Additionally, a mechanism can include introducing a newly modified gene into the body for further eliminating a disease. The variety of gene therapies that are currently available are plasmid DNA, viral vectors, bacterial vectors, human gene-editing technology, and patient-derived cellular gene therapy products, to name a few.
The primary driving factors for the significant growth of the global gene therapy market are the increasing prevalence of cancer and other targeted disorders coupled with the rising availability of measures. Additionally, gene therapy is being granted several reimbursements from various insurance carriers which increases the revenue stream that can be generated for the market during the forecast period. Rising funding for gene therapy research coupled with the rising adoption of gene therapy therapeutics is expected to increase the footprint of the global gene therapy market during the forecast period. A dynamic competitive nature is expected to drive the market due to several initiatives that are undertaken by the key market players such as the biopharma companies.
The insurgence of the current pandemic is expected to create a positive impact on the global gene therapy market during the forecast period. The market is expected to increase in boundaries due to the added intervention of life-threatening diseases such as heart diseases, AIDS, cystic fibrosis, and age-related disorders. Rising investment in research and development activities is further expected to curate a larger market revenue for the global gene therapy market during the forecast period. However, high prices and irregular availability is expected to dim the market growth to a slower rate during the forecast period.
The global gene therapy market can be segmented into vectors, delivery methods, indications, and regions.
The global gene therapy market can be divided into viral and non-viral vectors on the basis of vectors. The segment pertaining to non-viral vectors is expected to witness the largest market share during the advent of the forecast owing to technological advancements for physicochemical approaches in materials such as lipid, naked DNA, chromosomes, plasmid, cationic polymers, and conjugate complexes to name a few. The global gene therapy market can be fragmented into in vivo and ex vivo on the basis of delivery mode. The ex vivo segment is expected to occupy the largest market share during the advent of the forecast owing to a safer mode of operation and easy deliverables to name a few. The global gene therapy market can be broken down into neurological diseases, cancer, Duchenne muscular dystrophy, hepatological diseases, and others on the basis of indication. The segment pertaining to cancer is expected to witness the largest market share during the advent forecast period owing to the rising approval of gene therapies for the treatment of cancer coupled with the increasing prevalence of hematologic cancers to name a few.
