Market Insights and Analyst View:

Cell therapy is a procedure where living and intact cells are injected, implanted, or grafted into the patient's body. This technology relies on replacing dysfunctional cells with healthy functioning ones. Cells mainly used for such advanced therapies are stem cells, because of their ability to differentiate into the specific cells required for repairing damaged or defective tissues or cells. Moreover, cell therapy also has applications in the development of regenerative medicines.

Growth Drivers and Challenges:

Regenerative therapies aim to induce regeneration of cells, tissues, and organs and restore their functions. Increasing number of regenerative medicine applications for human clinical trials are submitted to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) each year. This is driving the cell therapy market. As per the Alliance for Regenerative Medicine, in 2019 (Q3), 1,052 clinical trials utilizing regenerative medicine were underway globally; 218 cellular therapy trials were underway (41 Phase I, 147 Phase II, 30 Phase III) in 2019. Rapid advancements in the development of regenerative medicines to provide more effective solutions for chronic conditions are driving the market. Cell therapy is one of the fastest-growing segments of the regenerative medicine domain. Novartis’s Kymriah was the first cell therapy solution offered to treat B-cell acute leukemia, which opened opportunities for this emerging treatment therapy. Moreover, RepliCel, a regenerative medicine provider, has a wide range of regenerative medicine products in the pipeline, with three products—RCH-01, RCS-01, and RCT-01—in the development phase. Further, Sernova is engaged in the development of regenerative medicine technologies and has a huge pipeline of products for conditions, such as Diabetes, Hemophilia A, and hyperthyroidism.

Further, chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disorders, neurological disorders, autoimmune disorders, and cancer, are the leading causes of death and disability worldwide. As per the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in 2019, nearly 6 in 10 people suffered from at least one chronic disease in the US. Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are a significant cause of mortality owing to the hectic lifestyle. As per the World Health Organization (WHO), CVDs are the number 1 cause of death globally, taking an estimated 17.9 million lives each year. Cancer is among the leading causes of mortality worldwide, and the disease affects a huge population; therefore, it acts as a huge financial burden on society. According to the WHO, in 2018, ~9.6 million deaths occurred due to cancer globally. However, growing research on developing effective treatments for the disease is positively affecting the market growth. Gene therapy and cell therapy are transforming the cancer treatment landscape; for example, Novartis Kymriah is used to treat diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. The launches of more such products would be driving the demand for cell therapy, thus fueling the growth of cell therapy market in the coming years.

However, the high cost of cell therapy products manufacturing is hampering market growth. The price of cell therapy is high because it has a complex manufacturing process and it uses biological components. Furthermore, the cost of consumables and equipment is much higher, which leads to the premium cost of cell therapies. For instance, the cost of the reagent kit offered by Miltenyi Biotec ranges from US$ 500–5,000. Similarly, the capital cost of installing the equipment is nearly US$ 2 million. Thus, the challenges pertaining to cell therapy prices limit the cell therapy market growth.
