Market Insight
Gene therapy is
a form of therapy that inserts a gene
into an individual’s cells and tissues to treat genetic diseases or replace
abnormal genes with correct genes to treat other diseases. Gene therapy inserts
a working gene into a person
who has a damaged gene. Gene therapy works by repressing, replacing, or
repairing defective genes that cause disease and with a purpose of regenerating
normal function. Further, when a cell does not work properly or is absent,
a genetically planned gene is introduced into the cell. For proper functioning
of the cell, the gene needs to be
inserted correctly into the targeted cell to avoid causing any adverse effects.
Gene therapy is
considered as a significant means of treatment as it eradicates the practice of surgery, drugs, or other procedures that
can have side effects on the health of individuals. A genetic disorder is a consequence of gene modifications in which
proteins are produced inaccurately. Modified gene is a reason for the absence of the important protein. Further, with
the help of gene therapy normal replica of that absent or faulty protein can be
presented to restore the function of the protein. Gene therapy is used for the
treatment of various diseases such as cancer, hemophilia, parkinson’s disease,
HIV, and can immune shortages through various approaches.
Innovation in gene therapy for rare
& cardiovascular diseases treatment is growing and increasing awareness
regarding the ability of gene therapy to cure diseases drives the growth of
gene therapy market. Further, several benefits such as the ability to replace defective cells help
in eliminating diseases and significant therapeutic potential offered by gene
therapy is boosting the growth of this market. Rising occurrence of cancer and increasing
government support for gene therapy in cancer treatment can further fuel the
demand for gene therapy market. Gene therapy has substantial potential to
eradicate and counter several genetic illnesses and frequent life-threatening
disorders, such as AIDS, cancer, Parkinson’s disease, heart diseases,
age-related disorders, and cystic fibrosis.
As per WHO, there were approximately 36.9
million people living with HIV at the end of 2017 and 1.8 million people were
newly infected in 2017 worldwide. In addition to this, in 2018 American Cancer
Society reported 609,640 people were dead owing to cancer in the United States.
Moreover, the upsurge in a number of gene therapy treatment centers in
developed countries and increasing adoption for gene therapy for
Oncological disorder have expected to be a lucrative growth opportunity for
this market. On the contrary, the high cost associated with gene therapies and the
potential to give rise to other disorders is likely to restrain the growth of
the gene therapy market.
In terms of geographies, North America accounted for the largest market
share for gene therapy market. Factors such as rise in disposable income,
increasing incidents for cancer, and increasing investment for R&D
activities are driving the growth for gene therapy market in the North America region. Moreover, the Asia-Pacific region is likely to witness significant growth in this market due to the increase in a number
of various chronic diseases, and growth in healthcare expenditure is driving
the growth of gene therapy market. Additionally, the accessibility of a wide range of innovative products that proposes
better results to the patients at slightly lower costs is also boosting the
market growth. Recently, a club of scientists directed by the National
Cancer Center Japan (NCC) in, along with Toray Industries, Inc., and
other institutions developed a new technique that could detect 13 types of
different cancer using just a single drop of blood.
