Gene Therapy Industry Overview

 

The global gene therapy market size was estimated at USD 5.54 billion in 2023 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 18.88% from 2024 to 2030. The market growth is attributed to many factors such as the expanding area of advanced therapies along with gene delivery technologies and progressive competition among key players focused on commercialization of their therapies. The biotechnology companies are investing in acquisitions, mergers/collaborations, and deals as a key strategy to increase in-house expertise and strengthen the product pipelines.

 

The COVID-19 outbreak has negatively impacted the market growth. This sector has experienced severe disruption due to COVID-19, which has historically presented significant challenges in the supply of materials, manufacturing, and logistics operations. For instance, companies had lengthy delivery times for specific components. They later discovered that it was short on clinical trial supplies when a partner contract manufacturing company was compelled to shut down.

The robust pipeline is expected to boost the market growth over the forecast period. Researchers are working to make gene therapy available at clinics. Various universities and institutes exhibit a broad portfolio of products in the pipeline which is expected to boost revenue generation over the forecast period. Clinical trials for gene therapy increased significantly from 2017 to 2018, after the FDA approved the first gene therapy. According to the American Society of Gene & Cell Therapy (ASGCT), around 1,986 products, including CAR T-cell therapies and other genetically modified cell therapies, are currently under development.

 

Moreover, improving regulatory support creates growth opportunities for the market over the forecast period. Several positive changes have been made by many international regulatory organizations to promote therapies. Support for CAR-T technology from the FDA is one of the examples. In phase II and III studies, in particular, regulators allow flexibility in the usual hierarchy of how clinical trials are conducted. Moreover, the FDA expects 10 to 20 new therapies to be approved annually by 2025.

 

Furthermore, an increase in funding and investments in this sector is expected to provide lucrative growth opportunities to market players. Several biopharma companies are investing in this sector for novel product launches. For instance, in January 2022, Ori Biotech raised more than USD 100.0 million in Series B funding to introduce a novel cell & gene therapy developing platform. This funding allowed for a rapid transition from pre-commercialization to market launch.
