Technological Advancements to Accelerate CAR-T Cell Therapy Market Expansion

The creation and introduction of CAR-T therapy, which uses a patient's white blood cells to combat specific forms of blood cancer cells, is among the greatest medical advances of the past few years. Some cancer patients may find hope in CAR-T cell therapy as a potential cure. Five additional CAR-T cell therapies have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) since the first therapy was approved in 2017 to treat particular types of adult and pediatric leukemia, lymphoma, and multiple myeloma. Research is also being done to create comparable treatments for solid tumor cancers.

Allogeneic CAR-T cell therapy has been the subject of hundreds of global pre-clinical and clinical trials. Most of these are used for hematological malignancies, where CD19 is the most commonly used target, along with other traditional targets such as CD20, CD22, and BCMA. Included are also newly developed targets such as CD70, CD7, and CD5. Emerging treatments for solid tumors include mesothelin, GD2, and NKG2DL.

Thus, advancements in cell-based therapeutics will likely bring new CAR-T cell therapy market trends in the coming years.

Regional Analysis:

The scope of the global CAR-T cell therapy market report focuses on North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, South & Central America, and the Rest of the World. In 2022, North America held the largest CAR-T cell therapy market share. The market growth in this region is driven by the increasing number of product launches by key manufacturers and the presence of key market players. In addition, extensive R&D by various pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and academic & research institutes is expected to stimulate market growth in North America. For instance, in June 2022, Bristol Myers Squibb announced receiving the approval of Breyanzi (lisocabtagene maraleucel), a CD19-directed CAR-T cell therapy from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of adult patients with large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL), including diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).

In the US, the CAR-T cell therapy market growth is mainly driven by the growing pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical sector, characterized by technological advancements and increasing flexibility. Furthermore, increasing R&D investments by US-based pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to improve outcomes of clinical trials and ensure patient safety stimulate market growth. For instance, in July 2021, a purchase agreement was signed by BioNTech SE and Kite, a Gilead Company, allowing BioNTech to purchase Kite's clinical manufacturing facility in Gaithersburg, MD, as well as its solid tumor neoantigen T cell receptor (TCR) R&D platform.
