The global cell and gene therapy manufacturing market size is expected to reach USD 47.1 billion by 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is expected to register a CAGR of 26.6% from 2023 to 2030 owing to the exponential progress of the clinical pipeline, coupled with a rising number of regulatory approvals for advanced therapies, which has majorly driven the growth of the market.
Significant investments by government authorities and key market players are other factors fueling the growth of cell and gene therapy manufacturing. Around USD 2.3 billion was invested in gene therapies by companies over the last decade. Major service providers, including CDMOs/CMOs and in-house manufacturers, consider these therapies as an active area of investment. For instance, in May 2020, Thermo Fisher Scientific also invested USD 180 million to scale up its viral vector manufacturing capacity twofold. These players are investing significant amounts either in building and/or expanding manufacturing capabilities or forming strategic alliances with competitors to boost their market presence. Thus, these factors are anticipated to act as primary driving factors for this market.
The number of cell and gene therapies entering clinical trials and later gaining marketing authorization from regulatory bodies is increasing every year. By the end of 2019, 17 cell and gene therapy products were approved by the U.S. FDA for commercial use. The U.S. FDA is expecting to receive over 200 gene and cell treatment INDs annually from the beginning of 2020. The regulatory body is also planning to approve up to 20 products per year from 2025. Such supportive government initiatives are expected to increase the demand for cell and gene therapy manufacturing services in the near future.
Following an article published in March 2020, in the U.S., the number of cell and gene therapies in the pipeline (phase III trials) was 289 at the beginning of 2019, which reached 362 in early 2020. The number is expected to increase twofold if the preclinical pipeline is considered. This growing number indicates the high demand for manufacturing services for cell and gene therapies. According to a report by America's Biopharmaceutical Companies, gene and cell therapies range from early to late stages of clinical development with a focus on a wide spectrum of diseases, including neurologic conditions, genetic disorders, and cancer.
