Dublin, Aug. 11, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Cell Therapy Manufacturing Market by Type of Cell Manufactured, Source of Cell, Scale of Operation, Purpose of Manufacturing and Key Geographical Regions - Industry Trends and Global Forecasts, 2021-2030" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
Thisreport features an extensive study of the current market landscape and future opportunities associated with cell therapy manufacturing, along with information on both contract manufacturers, as well as developers having in-house production capabilities, offering in-depth analyses of the various business entities engaged in this domain, across key global regions.
Given the consistent increase in number of cell therapies being developed and launched, this upcoming therapeutic segment is on its way to becoming one of the highest valued markets within the biopharmaceutical industry. In fact, in February 2021, the USFDA approved Breyanzi, a CAR-T cell-based therapy, developed by Bristol Myers Squibb, which is designed to treat relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphoma. According to a recent report (published by The Alliance for Regenerative Medicine), over 1,200 clinical trials, focused on the evaluation of cell therapies, gene therapies and tissue-based therapies, are currently being conducted by over 1,000 organizations (including academic institutions), worldwide.
Further growth of the market is primarily hindered by the limited availability of expertise, lack of specialized infrastructure to produce cell therapies, and several product development and manufacturing related challenges. With a sufficient body of evidence, validating the clinical benefits / therapeutic potential of this complex class of biologic drugs, the focus of stakeholders in this industry segment has now shifted to optimizing the cell therapy manufacturing process. Moreover, as more big pharma players enter this field of research, there is likely to be a substantial rise in the cell therapy manufacturing demand, as the proprietary product candidates of these large companies mature and need to be mass produced. In order to address the concerns related to manufacturing, several cell therapy developers (including the larger companies) have turned to contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs).
The cell therapy manufacturing service landscape features a mix of industry players (including well-established companies, mid-sized firms and start-ups / small companies), as well as several academic institutes. It is worth highlighting that innovator companies that have the required capabilities and facilities to produce cell therapies for in-house requirements, also offer contract services (primarily to ensure the optimum use of their resources and open up additional revenue generation opportunities).
Further, in order to make cell therapies more affordable, several stakeholders are integrating various degrees of automation to cut down on labor costs and also improve process scalability. This specialty services industry has witnessed significant partnership activity over the past few years, with several companies being acquired by the larger firms, in efforts to grow and consolidate their capabilities in this space. As stakeholders strive to mitigate existing challenges and focus on innovation to improve the cell production process, we believe that the market will witness significant growth in mid-long term.
