病毒載體技術的進步
病毒載體技術的不斷進步和創新是推動市場成長的重要因素。病毒載體用作遞送載體,將治療基因引入患者細胞中。這項技術的最新進展大大提高了基因治療的安全性和有效性。這些進展包括創建更具特異性和針對性的病毒載體,例如腺相關病毒 (AAV) 和慢病毒,AAV 因其能夠以最小的免疫反應和損傷運輸遺傳物質而受到歡迎。此外,根據基因治療市場概況,研究人員正專注於開發可能攜帶更大遺傳負載的病毒載體,從而擴大可治癒疾病的範圍。這些技術創新不僅提高了基因療法的功效,還最大限度地減少了不良反應的可能性,使患者更安全。因此,病毒載體技術的進步正在加速基因療法的接受和功效,以解決更廣泛的醫療問題。例如,MERCK KGaA 的 VirusExpress 293 腺相關病毒 (AAV) 生產平台提供完整的病毒載體製造,包括 AAV 和慢病毒載體。此外,Catalent Inc. 推出了 UpTempo Virtuoso 平台流程,用於開發和製造腺相關病毒 (AAV) 載體。
研究與開發的投資和資助
基因治療研究和開發(R&D)工作的投資和資金不斷增加正在推動市場擴張。製藥公司、生技公司和政府機構正在投入大量資源來開發基因治療技術和療法。基因治療在解決未滿足的醫療需求和提供長期效益方面具有巨大潛力,目前正在吸引大量資金。主要製藥公司要么收購基因治療新創公司,要么建立自己的基因治療部門以加快研究速度,這對基因治療市場前景產生了積極影響。此外,政府補助和激勵措施激勵學術機構和研究公司進行基因治療實驗。美國的《孤兒藥法案》以及其他國家的類似立法為罕見疾病藥物的開發提供了誘因。例如,囊性纖維化基金會報告投資 SalioGen Therapeutics,以支持該公司對囊性纖維化新型基因療法的臨床前研究。薩洛寧的基因編碼方法旨在開啟、關閉或修改基因組中任何基因的功能。
遺傳性疾病和罕見疾病的盛行率不斷上升
遺傳異常和罕見疾病盛行率的上升正在推動市場成長。其中許多疾病幾乎沒有或根本沒有有效的治療選擇,這使得基因療法成為有趣的替代方案。隨著我們對遺傳學認知的進步,越來越多的人被診斷出來,對新藥的需求也在增加。此外,基因療法能夠透過修復或替換有缺陷的基因來治療許多疾病的根本原因。這包括肌肉營養不良症、囊性纖維化和其他遺傳性代謝失調等疾病。製藥和生物技術企業正在投資基因療法研究,以滿足不斷成長的醫療需求,從而導致該領域的市場擴張和改善。例如,根據美國疾病管制與預防中心關於脊髓性肌肉萎縮症 (SMA) 的文章,SMA 是一種遺傳性疾病,每 10,000 人中就有 1 人受到影響。因此,它是最常見的罕見疾病之一。
支持性監管環境
多個國家的監管組織,特別是美國食品和藥物管理局 (FDA) 和歐洲藥品管理局 (EMA),認知到基因療法在滿足基本醫療需求方面的潛力。因此,他們創建了結構並加速了基因治療的研究和批准。此外,快速通道指定、突破性治療指定和孤兒藥狀態也是基因治療候選者可用的監管措施之一。這些指定簡化了臨床試驗程序,縮短了開發時間表,並鼓勵企業參與基因治療研究。例如,美國 FDA 批准了 Zynteglo (betibeglogene autotemcel),這是第一個用於治療成人和兒童 BETA 地中海貧血患者的細胞基因療法。由於基因療法開發的興起,此類批准預計將推動市場成長。

Advancements in Viral Vector Technology
Continuous progress and innovation in viral vector technology are important factors driving market growth. Viral vectors are used as delivery vehicles to introduce therapeutic genes into the cells of patients. Recent advances in this technique have greatly improved the safety and efficacy of gene therapy therapies. These developments include the creation of more specific and focused viral vectors, such as adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) and lentiviruses, with AAVs gaining popularity due to their ability to transport genetic material with minimal immune reaction and damage. Furthermore, as per the gene therapy market overview, researchers are focusing on developing viral vectors that may carry bigger genetic payloads, broadening the range of curable disorders. These technical innovations not only increase the efficacy of gene treatments but also minimize the likelihood of adverse effects, making them safer for patients. As a result, the advancement of viral vector technology is accelerating the acceptance and efficacy of gene therapy treatments for a broader range of medical problems. For instance, MERCK KGaA, the VirusExpress 293 Adeno-Associated Virus (AAV) Production Platform, offers full viral vector manufacturing, including AAV and lentiviral vectors. Additionally, Catalent Inc. launched UpTempo Virtuoso platform process for the development and manufacturing of adeno-associated viral (AAV) vectors.
Investment And Funding in Research and Development
The growing investments and funding for gene therapy research and development (R&D) efforts are driving market expansion. Pharmaceutical businesses, biotechnology firms, and government agencies are putting major resources into developing gene therapy technologies and therapeutics. Gene treatments have a strong potential for addressing unmet medical needs and providing long-term benefits, which is drawing significant funding. Major pharmaceutical corporations are either purchasing gene therapy startups or building their own gene therapy sections to speed up research, which is positively impacting the gene therapy market outlook. Furthermore, government subsidies and incentives motivate academic institutions and research firms to conduct gene therapy experiments. The Orphan Drug Act in the United States, as well as comparable legislation in other countries, gives incentives for the development of rare illness medicines. For instance, the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation reported investing in SalioGen Therapeutics to support the company's preclinical research into novel gene therapy for cystic fibrosis. Salonen's Gene Coding approach is designed to turn on, turn off, or modify the function of any gene in the genome.
Rising Prevalence of Genetic Disorders and Rare Diseases
The rising prevalence of genetic abnormalities and rare illnesses is propelling the market growth. Many of these diseases have little or no effective treatment choices, making gene therapy an intriguing alternative. As our understanding of genetics advances, more people are diagnosed, and the demand for novel medicines grows. Moreover, gene therapy has the ability to treat the underlying causes of many disorders by repairing or replacing defective genes. This comprises illnesses including muscular dystrophy, cystic fibrosis, and other hereditary metabolic disorders. Pharmaceutical and biotechnology businesses are investing in gene therapy research to fulfill this expanding medical demand, resulting in market expansion and improvements in the area. For instance, as per the United States Center for Disease Control and Prevention article on spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), SMA is a genetic disorder that affects around 1 in every 10,000 people. Therefore, it is one of the most common rare diseases.
Supportive Regulatory Environment
Regulatory organizations in several countries, especially the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Medicines Agency (EMA), recognize the potential of gene therapy to address essential medical needs. Consequently, they have created structures and accelerated the research and approval of gene treatments. Additionally, fast-track designations, breakthrough treatment designations, and orphan drug status are among the regulatory measures available to gene therapy candidates. These designations ease the clinical trial procedure, shorten development schedules, and encourage corporations to participate in gene therapy research. For instance, the U.S. FDA approved Zynteglo (betibeglogene autotemcel), the first cell-based gene therapy for treating adult and pediatric patients with beta-thalassemia. Such approvals are expected to drive market growth due to the rise in the development of gene therapies.
IMARC Group provides an analysis of the key trends in each segment of the market, along with forecasts at the global, regional and country levels for 2024-2032. Our report has categorized the market based on gene type, vector type, delivery method, and application.

Tumor Suppressor
Suicide Gene
Deficiency
Growth Factors
Receptors
Others
The report has provided a detailed breakup and analysis of the market based on the gene type. This includes antigen, cytokine, tumor suppressor, suicide gene, deficiency, growth factors, receptors, and others.
Antigen genes are a critical segment in gene therapy, especially in the context of cancer immunotherapy. These genes code for tumor-specific antigens or antigens associated with infectious agents. By introducing antigen genes into the cells of the patients, the immune system can be activated to recognize and target cancer cells or pathogens. They also enable personalized cancer treatments, where patient-specific antigens can be targeted for a more effective and targeted immune response. For instance, Imugene reported a new clinical trial collaboration and supply agreement with MSD, a tradename of Merck & Co., Inc., Kenilworth, NJ, USA, to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Imugene's HER-Vaxx, a B-cell activating immunotherapy, in combination with MSD's anti-PD-1 therapy, pembrolizumab (KEYTRUDA), in patients with HER-2 positive gastric cancer.

In-Vivo Gene Therapy
Ex-Vivo Gene Therapy
The report has provided a detailed breakup and analysis of the market based on the delivery method. This includes in-vivo gene therapy and ex-vivo gene therapy.
In-vivo gene therapy involves the direct delivery of therapeutic genes or genetic material into the body of the patient. This approach aims to modify or correct genetic defects within the tissues or organs of patients in their natural physiological environment. In-vivo gene therapy methods typically utilize viral vectors, such as adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) or lentiviruses, to transport the therapeutic genes. This segment of gene therapy is often used for diseases that require systemic treatment, such as certain types of inherited disorders or conditions where the target tissue is easily accessible within the body. For instance, recent advancements in gene supplementation therapy are expanding the options for the treatment of neurological disorders. Among the available delivery vehicles, adeno-associated virus (AAV) is often the favored vector.
