Increasing Prevalence of Chronic Diseases Propel Market Growth

The sedentary life of older people has boosted the prevalence of lifestyle disorders, such as obesity and diabetes. Inherited genes can also express these conditions along with other health concerns such as cardiovascular disease (CVDs), Alzheimer’s disease, and depression. As per the National Council on Aging, Inc., 80% of adults (aged 65 and more) are reported to suffer from at least one chronic condition in their lifetime. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), approximately 6 of 10 people in the US suffered from at least one serious disease, and 4 of 10 people had two or more chronic conditions in 2020.

CVDs, such as angina pectoris, atherosclerosis, and acute myocardial infarction caused because of hectic lifestyles, are among the significant causes of mortality across the world. As per the World Heart Foundation, mortality caused due to CVD has surged by 60% over the past 30 years (1990–2020). 20.5 million deaths were recorded in 2021 due to CVDs. Diabetes is one of the life-threatening chronic diseases with no functional cure. According to the International Diabetes Federation, the number of diabetic cases in North America is anticipated to grow from 46 million in 2017 to 62 million by 2045. As per the Global Cancer Observatory (GLOBOCAN) estimates published in 2020, 19.3 million cancer cases were reported across the world. The number of cases was significantly high in the US, China, and India. The GLOBOCAN further estimates that cancer cases in India would reach ~2.08 million by 2040, representing a rise of 57.5% from 2020. Similarly, as per the World Health Organization data published in February 2022, ~10 million people across the world have succumbed to death due to cancer. An upsurge in the incidence of cancer indicates the need for innovative cancer treatments. Monoclonal antibodies represent a promising class of targeted anticancer agents that enhance the natural ability of immune systems to suppress cancer cell activity and eliminate cancer cells. Antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) have also shown promising results in cancer treatment.

The recognition of biosimilars as efficient and safe by specialists, patients, primary care clinicians, and other healthcare professionals is propelling its demand. Biosimilars have proven to improve the quality of life for millions of patients. They are impactful and cost-effective options for treating many diseases, including chronic skin conditions (such as psoriasis and atopic dermatitis), bowel diseases (such as Crohn’s disease, irritable bowel syndrome, and colitis), diabetes, autoimmune disease, cancer, kidney conditions, and arthritis. Biosimilar developers are adopting advanced bioprocessing technologies to achieve lower manufacturing costs, which is an important factor in determining the final consumer prices. Nearly all biosimilar developers are using modern, cutting-edge bioprocessing techniques. Therefore, with the growing prevalence of chronic diseases, the demand for biosimilars to treat life-threatening illnesses is spurring, thereby propelling the demand for bioprocessing leading to bioprocessing market growth.

Segmental Analysis:

The bioprocessing market analysis has been carried out by considering the following segments: product, scale of operation, process, application, and end user.

Based on product, the bioprocessing market is segmented into instruments, and consumables and accessories. The instruments segment held a larger market share in 2023 and is likely to register the highest CAGR of 14.5% during 2023–2031.

The market, based on scale of operation, is segmented into commercial operations and clinical operations. The commercial operations segment held a larger bioprocessing market share in 2023 and is anticipated to register a higher CAGR during the forecast period.

Based on process, the bioprocessing market is divided into downstream bioprocess and upstream bioprocess. The downstream bioprocess segment held a larger market share in 2023 and is anticipated to register a higher CAGR of 14.4% during 2023–2031. Downstream bioprocessing is the stage where the upstream bioproduct is recovered, concentrated, and purified to meet quality requirements. Downstream bioprocessing is applicable in the purification of monoclonal antibodies or proteins and manufacturing of oligonucleotides, polysaccharides, and various vaccines. The steps associated with downward bioprocessing are harvest and filtration, capture, ultrafiltration, purification, bioconjugation, and formulation.

The bioprocessing market, based on application, is divided into monoclonal antibodies, vaccines, recombinant protein, cell and gene therapy, and others. The monoclonal antibodies segment dominated the market share in 2023. The cell and gene therapy segment is anticipated to register the highest CAGR of 16.5% during the forecast period. Cell and gene therapy are the overlapping fields in biomedical treatment and research. Both therapies aim to prevent, treat, or potentially cure diseases. Moreover, both cell and gene therapies have the potential to alleviate the underlying cause of genetic and acquired diseases. Cell therapy intends to treat diseases by restoring or modifying several sets of cells outside the body before being injected into the patient or by using cells to carry a therapy across the body. Gene therapy aims to treat diseases by restoring or introducing new genes into cells—either outside of the body (ex vivo) or inside the body (in vivo).

Based on end user, the bioprocessing market is divided into biopharmaceutical companies, contract manufacturing organization, and others. The biopharmaceutical companies segment held the largest bioprocessing market share in 2023; the contract manufacturing organization segment is anticipated to register the highest CAGR of 14.7% during 2023–2031. The number of biopharmaceutical companies is increasing worldwide, leading to a high number of collaborations and agreements between the companies. Investments by companies in the research and development of drugs and other biosimilars have been increased. The advancement in biotechnology has improved the identification of possible targets for a drug. The rising application of bioprocessing in cancer therapeutics and the ability of biopharmaceuticals to address untreatable conditions are expected to accelerate the market growth.
