The global microRNA market size is expected to reach USD 3.64 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 12.87% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The growth of the market is propelled by substantial investments in research and development initiatives for the development of novel diagnostic tests and therapeutics, coupled with the successful integration of microRNAs in clinical trials. The biopharmaceutical sector plays a significant role in the current biotechnology industry. The expenditure on R&D has significantly increased in the biotechnology industry. Several biopharmaceutical companies are investing in the development of RNA-based therapeutics (miRNAs & siRNAs). Some of the major players are Regulus Therapeutics, Rosetta Genomics, Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, miRagen Therapeutics, and Mirna Therapeutics.
The substantial investments coupled with increased government funding in miRNA R&D initiatives for the development of new diagnostic tests & therapeutics are anticipated to boost the market growth. Several new players have arrived in the market with innovative approaches for the development of targeted therapeutics and identifying drug targets. For instance, in an article published in Elsevier in April 2022, a team of researchers provided a summary of current large-cohort studies that show the clinical value of circulating miRNAs for the early diagnosis of disease.
The rising number of studies investigating the tumor-suppressive effects of various microRNAs, particularly in cancer cell lines like thoracic cancer, is driving an increased demand for microRNA research tools. Additionally, miRNA-based therapeutics have demonstrated high potential in the treatment of various diseases and are continuously evolving. Accurate delivery of miRNA-based therapeutic agents to the targeted cells remains a major challenge for clinical applications. However, the recent introduction of efficient delivery systems, such as nanoparticle-based delivery systems, is anticipated to help overcome this challenge.
