Dublin, Jan. 09, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Global Cord Blood and Tissue Banking Industry Report 2022" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
Today, more than 70% of the global cord blood market is controlled by the world's 12 largest cord blood banking operators. For both therapeutic and financial reasons, the cord blood industry has been witnessing record levels of merger and acquisition (M&A) activity in recent years, with market leaders gaining market share at the expense of smaller competitors and investors vying for buy-in opportunities.
Novel pricing strategies, product cross-sells and upsells, and ingenious online and offline marketing strategies are being implemented by the industry's market leaders. Meanwhile, new technologies to support ex-vivo cord blood expansion are advancing at a brisk pace.
Substantial cord blood industry consolidation has happened in recent years and investor appetite for cord blood banks has never been stronger. This is because cord blood banks produce stable subscription revenue from long-term storage contracts. At a fundamental level, cord blood banks are both a real estate play (cryogenic storage facilities) and a regenerative medicine (RM) play.
In addition to an aggressive M&A environment, a growing number of cord blood banks have been venturing into new types of stem cell storage, reproductive services, and related cell therapy applications. Specifically, cord blood, cord tissue, placental tissue, and dental pulp have demonstrated intriguing therapeutic promise, causing storage services for these biomaterials to proliferate.
Cord blood has the potential to be an important source of therapeutic cells for a growing range of regenerative medicine applications. According to ClinicalTrials.gov, there are over 1,300 clinical trials evaluating the use of cord blood stem and progenitor cells.
These studies use unmanipulated whole cord blood (total nucleated cells/TNC), mononuclear cells (MNC), or cord blood-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). These studies are targeting clinical indications that range from pulmonary diseases to infertility to orthopedic conditions, but the most common area of research is neurologic conditions - such as cerebral palsy, autism, stroke, and hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy.
Within the research realm, cord blood products (fresh and cryopreserved) are being offered by a diverse range of major market leaders, including Lonza, STEMCELL Technologies, AllCells, and dozens of others. Within the therapeutic realm, a growing number of companies are exploring the development and commercialization of perinatal products across a diverse range of applications.
Key questions answered within the report are:
- What are the strategies being considered to improve the financial stability of public cord blood banks?
- What are the companion products proposed to be developed from cord blood?

- What are the comparative merits of the various cord blood processing technologies?
- What is to be done to increase the rate of utilization of cord blood cells in transplantations?
- Which TNC counts are preferred for transplantation?
- What is the number of registered clinical trials using cord blood and cord tissue?
- How many clinical trials are studying the ex vivo expansion of cord blood?
- How many matching and mismatching transplantations using cord blood units are performed on an annual basis?
- What is the share of cord blood transplants compared to bone marrow and peripheral blood transplants, respectively?
- What is the likelihood of finding a matching allogeneic cord blood unit by ethnicity?
- Which are the top ten countries for donating cord blood?
- What are the diseases targeted by cord blood and tissue derived MSCs within clinical trials?
