MicroRNA市場:2023年至2028年預測MicroRNA Market - Forecasts from 2023 to 2028 |
預計到 2021 年,全球 microRNA 市場規模將達到 1,410,532,000 美元,預測期內複合年成長率為 18.19%。
被稱為 microRNA (miRNA) 的小非編碼 RNA 分子在調節各種生物體的基因表現方面發揮重要作用。 miRNA 是單鏈RNA 分子,通常由 21 至 25 個核苷酸組成。針對 microRNA 的各種疾病的臨床試驗數量不斷增加,以及癌症等慢性疾病病例數的增加,是 microRNA 市場的主要成長動力。此外,個人化醫療的日益轉變以及市場參與者的技術開拓和市場推出預計將進一步促進 microRNA 市場的成長。
自 microRNA 被發現以來,其分子和細胞作用已被確定。 microRNA 與人類疾病的相關性於 2002 年首次得到證實,此後,針對 microRNA 在人類和其他生物體中的相關性開展了許多研究,推動了 microRNA 市場的發展。例如,最近一項題為「動脈粥斑塊不穩定診斷中的微小RNA」的研究預計由莫斯科國立醫科大學於2022年9月啟動,並於2024年8月完成。本研究的目的是發現無名動脈不穩定動脈粥狀硬化的生物標記。
癌症發生率的增加推動了對高效診斷和治療技術的需求。由於 MicroRNA 參與疾病過程並具有作為生物標記或治療標靶的潛力,因此它們具有更好的疾病管理和個人化治療的潛力。因此,癌症患者數量的增加是microRNA市場的主要成長要素。例如,根據世界衛生組織的資料,2020年有近1,000萬人(即六分之一的死亡人數)死於癌症,使其成為全球主要死亡原因。此外,根據世界衛生組織的報告,每年有 40 萬名兒童被診斷出患有兒童癌症。
個體化醫療的理念旨在為特定患者量身定做醫療干預措施,引起了許多人的興趣。 MicroRNA 可以反映疾病狀態和個體差異,使其成為個人化治療的潛在目標,並推動 microRNA 市場的發展。檢查 miRNA表現圖譜並創建基於 miRNA 的療法的能力將有助於制定個人化治療計劃。根據美國癌症協會的說法,當患者患某種特定癌症的風險很高時,精準醫療可能適用。例如,患者可能得知癌症在其家族中遺傳,或者醫生可能會發現患者家族中的癌症模式。
上述成長要素正在為 microRNA 市場創造巨大的擴張機會。此外,其他因素也為進入 microRNA 市場提供了機會。例如,microRNA 正在作為一種潛在應用進行研究。這包括獸醫、農業和環境監測等領域。研究 microRNA 在各個領域的功能擴大了研究、產品開發和商業化的可能性。此外,microRNA相關公司獲得的資金和投資進一步擴大了成長機會並推動了microRNA市場的發展。例如,InterRNA Technologies 在 2021 年 9 月的 B 輪資金籌措中獲得了總計 1,850 萬歐元的資金。資金用於推進 microRNA 主要候選藥物 INT 0-1B3 在晚期固體癌患者的臨床評估。
預計有幾個因素會限制 microRNA 市場。對 miRNA 的生物學理解不足可能會阻礙有效診斷和治療方法的發展。利用miRNA研究進行治療是很困難的。需要嚴格的臨床試驗和廣泛的研究來檢驗miRNA 的診斷和治療價值。完成臨床檢驗、監管核准和融入標準臨床實踐的複雜過程需要時間、金錢和臨床效用證明。此外,miRNA 很脆弱,在體內通常會很快被破壞,這使得將基於 microRNA 的治療方法有效遞送至目標組織和細胞成為一項重大挑戰。
據估計,北美地區將佔據 microRNA 市場的主要佔有率。造成這一佔有率的因素包括有利的監管政策、癌症和慢性腎臟病等慢性疾病負擔的增加以及科學研究的增加。例如,美國疾病預防控制中心 (CDC) 估計,到 2022 年,美國將有 3,550 萬成年人(佔人口的 14%)患有 CKD。根據美國腎臟資料系統(USRDS)的數據,2019年美國有超過75萬人患有末期腎病變(ESRD)。此外,Thermo Fisher Scientific 和 BioGenex 等主要市場領導的出現進一步加速了該地區 microRNA 市場的發展。

The global microRNA market was valued at US$1410.532 million in 2021 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 18.19% during the forecast period.
Small non-coding RNA molecules known as microRNAs (miRNAs) play a critical function in the control of gene expression in a range of organisms. It is normally made up of 21 to 25 nucleotides and is a single-stranded RNA molecule. The increasing number of clinical trials for various diseases focusing on microRNA along with the rising cases of chronic illnesses such as cancer is a major growth driver in the microRNA market. Moreover, the increasing shift towards personalized medicine coupled with technological developments and launches by the market players are further contemplated to augment the microRNA market growth.
The molecular and cellular roles of microRNA have been identified since their discovery. The first proof of microRNAs' involvement in human disease was published in 2002 and after that numerous studies have been conducted on the relevance of microRNA in humans as well as other organisms thereby boosting the microRNA market. For instance, a recent study titled microRNAs in the Diagnosis of atherosclerotic plaque instability was started in September 2022 by Moscow State Medical University and it is estimated to be complete by August 2024. Finding biomarkers of unstable atherosclerosis in the brachiocephalic arteries is the goal of the research.
The demand for efficient diagnostic and therapeutic technologies is being driven by the increasing incidence of cancer. MicroRNAs offer chances for better illness management and individualized treatments due to their participation in disease processes and potential as biomarkers or therapeutic targets. Therefore, the rising cancer cases are a major growth factor in the microRNA market. For instance, nearly 10 million deaths, or one in six deaths, were caused by cancer in 2020, making it the top cause of mortality worldwide as per the WHO data. Moreover, 400 000 kids are diagnosed with cancer in children every year according to the WHO report.
The idea of personalized medicine, which tries to customize medical interventions for specific patients, has drawn a lot of interest. Because of their capacity to reflect both disease states and individual differences, microRNAs are potential targets for personalized treatment thereby propelling the microRNA market. The development of individualized treatment plans is aided by the capacity to examine miRNA expression profiles and create miRNA-based therapeutics. According to the American Cancer Society, in cases where a patient's chance of developing a particular cancer is higher, precision medicine may be applied. For instance, a patient might learn that cancer runs in their family, for instance, or a doctor might see a pattern of cancer in the patient's family.
The growth factors mentioned above provide an immense expansion opportunity for the microRNA market. Moreover, other factors are also offering entrance opportunities into the microRNA market. For example, microRNAs are being researched for possible applications. These include disciplines like veterinary medicine, agriculture, and environmental monitoring. Research, product development, and commercialization potential are expanded as a result of studying the function of microRNAs in various sectors. Additionally, the funding and investments received by the companies involved in the microRNA further extend the growth opportunity thereby propelling the microRNA market. For instance, InteRNA Technologies received a total of € 18.5 million in a series B financing round held in September 2021. This money was utilized to advance the clinical assessment of the microRNA lead candidate INT 0-1B3 in patients with solid tumors that were progressed.
There are a few factors that are expected to limit the microRNA market. The creation of efficient diagnostic and therapeutic approaches may be hampered by a lack of a thorough understanding of miRNA biology. It is difficult to translate microRNA research into therapeutically useful uses. Rigorous clinical trials and extensive research are needed to validate the diagnostic or therapeutic value of miRNAs. It takes time, money, and proof of clinical utility to complete complex processes including clinical validation, regulatory approval, and incorporation into standard clinical practice. Moreover, efficient delivery of microRNA-based therapies to target tissues or cells is a major challenge because miRNAs are often fragile and can be swiftly destroyed in vivo.
The North American region is estimated to hold a significant share of the microRNA market. Various factors attributed to such a share are favorable regulatory policies, the growing burden of chronic diseases such as cancer, and chronic kidney disease, and increasing scientific research studies. For instance, CDC estimated that 35.5 million US adults which equates to 14% of the population, were having CKD in 2022. According to the United States Renal Data System (USRDS), there were more than 750,000 people in the US who had ESRD in 2019. Additionally, the presence of major market leaders such as Thermo Fisher Scientific and BioGenex further accelerates the microRNA market in the region.
