Market Highlights

Delivery of foreign DNA using viral vectors has flaws, particularly when attempts are made to apply the technology to gene therapy. However, as researchers learn more about viral vectors and their impact on human immune response, advancements in safe and effective viral-based treatments continue.

Meanwhile, the refinement of viral-mediated gene delivery protocols proceeds, providing a convenient, flexible, and reproducible system for in vitro transfection studies. Plasmid DNA vaccines offer speed, simplicity, and breadth of immune response by overcoming the issues regarding effectiveness and safety of therapy during treatment. Innovative plasmid DNA vaccines can be useful for the immunization of humans against infectious diseases and cancers.

The global viral vector and plasmid DNA technologies market’s projected growth stems from factors such as the rising prevalence of various diseases such as cancer, infectious diseases, and other genetic disorders, the growing trend toward gene therapy owing to their promising clinical results, and increasing partnerships and collaborations between companies and research institutes in gene therapy.

The rising incidence and prevalence rate of cancer is considered a key factor in the growth of the global viral vector and plasmid DNA technologies market. According to the WHO (World Health Organization), cancer is the second-leading cause of mortality in the world, responsible for 9.6 million deaths and accounting for 18.1 million new cases in 2018. Consequently, there is significant demand for cancer therapeutics based on innovative technologies such as viral vectors and plasmid DNA.

Viral vectors are being researched for applications in cancer therapies and to support the delivery of genetic information to a tumor, which will permit the development of therapeutic proteins. The process typically involves introducing DNA into a cell (transfection), which encodes for a protein and other important genetic elements needed for the introduction of the gene of interest expression that facilitates successful production of protein.

Some approved gene therapies, like Kymriah for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and large B cell lymphoma, have induced market players to research and develop gene therapy for cancer treatment. However, regulatory challenges, vector characterization, and QC testing, and manufacturing challenges have restrained growth in the global viral vector and plasmid DNA technologies market.

The global viral vector and plasmid DNA technologies market was segmented based on the product, application, and end-user. Based on the product, the global viral vector and plasmid DNA technologies market further is analyzed into plasmid DNA and viral vectors. The viral vector is the most operative resource of gene transfer to modify specific cell type or tissue and can be manipulated to express therapeutic genes.

Various types of viruses include adenoviruses, retroviruses (?-retroviruses and lentiviruses), poxviruses, AAV, baculoviruses, and HSV. These viruses are under investigation as applications to deliver genes to cells for either transient or permanent transgene expression. The rising applications of these viruses should boost the growth of the viral vector in gene therapy.
