Nucleic Acid Therapeutics Market Research, 2031
The global nucleic acid therapeutics market was valued at $4.1 billion in 2021, and is projected to reach $12.2 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 11.6% from 2022 to 2031.
The genetic material is composed of naturally occurring chemicals called nucleic acids, which are also the principal information-carrying molecules in cells. Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), ribonucleic acid (RNA), and synthetic nucleic acid are the three different forms of nucleic acids. Endogenous nucleic acids are conceded by Watson-Crick base pairing in a sequence-specific way, mediating their universal mode of action. Numerous chronic diseases are treated with medicines based on nucleic acids. It demonstrates the important therapeutic impact on long-term conditions, such cancer, tumors, diabetes, TB, and AIDS. For instance, the nucleic acid therapeutics market has received a lot of interest recently as it shows significant effects in chronic disease treatments.
The nucleic acid therapeutics market is expected to grow quickly as a result of the numerous innovative therapies that are now undergoing approval and development. The growth of the pharmaceutical and healthcare sectors, creation of biological goods, and DNA therapies all contribute to the rise of the nucleic acid therapeutics market. On the other side, the development of the global nucleic acid therapies market is expected to be constrained by lack of experience, lack of technologies, and their high cost. As both, developed and emerging nations play a significant role in the analysis and development of new therapies, the market is likely to continue to expand in the future. The high cost of research and development, as well as costly therapies and technologies, are some of the key factors limiting industry expansion. Additional factors that are boosting the market expansion for nucleic acid therapeutics globally include, speedier absorption and quicker market access, strong product demand, and a greater concentration of pharmaceutical companies on the development of treatments for nucleic acid therapeutics. The factors that are anticipated to impede the growth of the global nucleic acid therapeutics market during the forecast period include, absence of alternative treatments for a variety of chronic conditions, accessibility of medicines, and high diagnostic costs. The growth of the nucleic acid therapeutics market is driven by increased research & development of new medicines and therapies and increased disease prevalence.
Impact of COVID-19 on the Market
Coronavirus Severe acute respiration syndrome (SARS-CoV-2) is an infectious disease caused by the novel coronavirus (COVID-19), which originated in the Wuhan district in China in the late 2019, and since has spread to 212 countries. The virus was initially referred to as “novel coronavirus 2019” (2019-nCoV) by the WHO, However, on February 11, 2020, it was given the official name of SARS-CoV-2 by the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses. WHO declared COVID-19 as pandemic on March 11, 2020, and by September 1, 2020, over 28.1 million people have been infected globally with over 909,000 deaths. COVID-19 symptoms include fever, cough, and shortness of breath.
Nearly all industries have been impacted by the global public health pandemic, COVID-19. As coronavirus crises sweep the globe and force healthcare organizations to devote the majority of their funds to fight COVID-19, it has also resulted in a significant decline in demand for the nucleic acid therapeutics market across several sectors, particularly the health and pharmaceutical sectors. The main cause of the interruptions experienced by patients getting treatment for nucleic acid therapeutics in hospitals was the risk of infection. The treatments based on nucleic acid require hospitalization, hence the market growth declined during this period. As a result, the COVID-19 outbreak slowed down the global market growth for treatments of nucleic acid therapeutics, which was expected to have a negative effect on the market's value in 2021 and beyond.
