The gene therapy market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $9.66 billion in 2023 to $12.64 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 30.9%. The growth observed in the historical period can be ascribed to an increase in pharmaceutical research and development (R&D) spending, the escalation of public-private partnerships, government investments, and a rise in the incidence of spinal muscular atrophy.
The gene therapy market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $27.77 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.8%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be linked to a rise in cancer cases, the expanding aging population, increased research and development expenditure in the pharmaceutical sector, and a growing emphasis on gene therapy within the market. Key trends in the forecast period involve improving business operations by obtaining regulatory approvals, reinforcing business activities through strategic collaborations and partnerships, expanding business capabilities through strategic acquisitions, and enhancing operational capabilities through business expansions.
The gene therapy market is experiencing growth due to a significant increase in the incidence of cancer and other target diseases, necessitating effective treatments. The global rise in cancer cases is expected to contribute to the expansion of the gene therapy market in the forecast period. As of January 2022, the American Cancer Society predicts approximately 1.9 million new cancer diagnoses and 609,360 cancer-related deaths in the United States, highlighting the urgency for advanced treatments. Lung, prostate, bowel, and female breast cancer collectively account for 43 percent of all new cancer cases worldwide. The escalating global cancer incidence is poised to drive demand for gene therapy as an effective treatment, involving the introduction of new genes to induce cell death or slow cancer growth.
The increasing investment in the healthcare industry is set to fuel the growth of the gene therapy market. Healthcare industry investment encompasses allocating funds to companies involved in medical services, manufacturing medical equipment or drugs, offering medical insurance, and contributing to the healthcare sector. This investment plays a pivotal role in the gene therapy industry, as pharmaceutical companies strategically invest to enhance patent portfolios and secure lucrative partnerships. Such investments are instrumental in the development of innovative gene therapy products. For instance, based on the 2021–2030 National Health Expenditure (NHE) report by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, national health spending is projected to grow by an average of 5.1% annually, reaching nearly $6.8 trillion between 2021 and 2030. Moreover, Medicare spending is expected to increase at a 7.2% annual rate, while Medicaid spending is projected to rise by 5.6% annually. Hence, the increasing healthcare industry investment serves as a driving force behind the growth of the gene therapy market.
Machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) are gradually gaining traction in the gene therapy market. AI involves simulating human intelligence in machines, Programd to exhibit natural intelligence. As a subset of AI, machine learning supports gene therapy companies in conducting comprehensive data analysis, providing insights into tumor and immune cell interactions, and delivering more accurate evaluations of tissue samples, resolving disputes among different evaluators. For example, in May 2023, Form Bio, a US-based life sciences-focused software company, introduced FORMsightAI, an innovative AI-based solution set designed to predict and optimize manufacturing outputs of cell and gene therapy constructs. This full-service solution combines adaptive AI models, Form Bio's foundational platform, and a proficient team of computational life sciences experts. FORMsightAI addresses common challenges faced by cell and gene therapy developers, including construct truncations and manufacturing contaminations, leading to improved manufacturing yields, shortened timelines to market, and enhanced therapeutic safety.
Major companies in the gene therapy market are strategically investing in the development of gene therapy facilities, such as innovation hubs, to gain a competitive advantage. Gene therapy facilities are specialized establishments for manufacturing and administering gene therapy products, aiming to correct underlying genetic issues and treat or prevent diseases. In March 2021, The Medical Research Council (MRC), LifeArc, and the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council in the UK announced substantial investments to establish a national network of cutting-edge gene therapy innovation hubs. Supported by $19 million in funding, these facilities aim to accelerate the clinical development of novel genetic therapies, potentially transforming the care of millions of patients, especially those with rare and fatal genetic disorders.
In December 2021, Novartis AG, a Swiss pharmaceutical company, acquired Gyroscope Therapeutics Holdings plc for $800 million. Through this acquisition, Novartis expands its gene therapy research capabilities by adding GT005, an experimental one-time gene therapy in Phase 2 for treating geographic atrophy (GA). This move enhances Novartis's commitment to ophthalmic innovation, contributing to the global effort to treat and prevent blindness related to eye diseases.
