An in vitro lung model is a scientific construct devised to replicate the cellular, structural, and functional characteristics of the human lung within a controlled laboratory setting. These models empower researchers to explore disease progression, identify biomarkers, and evaluate treatment effectiveness. They serve as invaluable instruments for advancing our comprehension of lung biology, refining therapeutic approaches, and enhancing health outcomes.
The primary classifications of in vitro lung models include two-dimensional (2D) models and three-dimensional (3D) models. A 2D model presents a simplified depiction of lung cells and tissue on a flat surface, employed in fundamental research and preliminary substance testing. They find utility across various domains such as drug discovery, toxicology assessments, physiological investigations, as well as the advancement of three-dimensional (3D) model methodologies. These models are utilized by academic research institutions, pharmaceutical and biotechnology firms, among others.

The in-vitro lung model market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $0.44 billion in 2024 to $0.54 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.3%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growing prevalence of respiratory diseases, increased focus on personalized medicine, growing interest in drug repurposing, emphasis on precision medicine approaches, growing awareness of environmental health risks.
The in-vitro lung model market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.16 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.0%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to drug development needs, rise in preclinical testing, increasing awareness of respiratory toxicology, focusing on regenerative medicine, growing environmental concerns, increasing geriatric populations. Major trends in the forecast period include increased demand for drug testing, advancements in 3D printing technology, advancements in organ-on-chip technology, integration of AI and machine learning, integration of sensors and monitoring devices, expansion of applications beyond pharmaceuticals, development of disease-specific models.
The surge in clinical studies is anticipated to drive growth in the in vitro lung model market in the future. Clinical trials are investigations that evaluate the effectiveness of new medical approaches in human subjects. This increase in clinical studies is propelled by the growing demand for advanced medical treatments, rising healthcare needs, and the search for innovative solutions to complex health challenges. In vitro lung models play a crucial role in clinical trials by providing a controlled setting to examine how substances affect lung tissue, aiding in drug testing, assessing toxicity, modeling diseases, and understanding disease mechanisms. For instance, according to ClinicalTrials.gov, a US-based clinical trial registry, as of January 2024, there were 477,230 registered clinical trials globally, up from 437,508 in 2022. Consequently, the rise in clinical studies stimulates the in vitro lung model market.
Key players in the in vitro lung model market are developing 3D respiratory tissue models to enhance the physiological relevance and complexity of their models. These models are created by culturing selected respiratory cells in a specialized environment, allowing them to form a three-dimensional structure that mimics the function and morphology of the respiratory system. This provides a more physiologically relevant platform for research and drug testing. For example, in April 2023, MatTek Corporation, a US-based biotechnology company, launched EpiNasal, an innovative 3D respiratory tissue model made from primary human nasal epithelial cells. EpiNasal replicates the three-dimensional structure and functionality of nasal epithelium, including mucus-producing goblet cells, functional tight junctions, and beating cilia. The introduction of EpiNasal expands MatTek's range of 3D respiratory tissue models, offering a comprehensive system for studying the effects of pharmaceuticals, chemicals, pathogens, and consumer products on the human respiratory system.
In July 2024, Tergus Pharma, a US-based end-to-end service provider for topical pharmaceutical products, merged with MedPharm Ltd. for an undisclosed amount. This strategic merger combines the strengths of both companies, allowing them to offer a comprehensive range of services, including commercial production and serialization, formulation development, in vitro testing, and clinical manufacturing, all within a single integrated organization. The merger enhances their capabilities in developing and manufacturing hormone-based and highly potent drugs at Tergus Pharma's GMP manufacturing facility in Durham, NC. MedPharm Ltd., based in the UK, specializes in providing in vitro models that use human tissue to simulate lung and nasal delivery systems.
