Key players in the market are focused on adopting growth strategies such as mergers and acquisitions, collaborations, license agreements, and partnerships, in order to expand their product portfolio and global presence in the viral vector and plasmid DNA manufacturing market. For instance, in April 2018, Vigene Biosciences Inc. (Vigene), a leading biotechnology company for viral vector production and development, entered into partnership with Virovek to utilize Vigene’s proprietary Adeno-associated Virus (AAV) Production Technology, where baculovirus (BAC) expression system is used for Adeno-associated Virus (AAV) production. Vectors produced from BAC-to-AAV technology can infect and transduce large number of mammalian cells in vivo and in vitro.
Moreover, in December 2017, Lonza, Massachusetts Eye and Ear (MEE), and Akouos, a biotechnology company, entered into strategic license agreements to obtain exclusive rights to design adeno-associated viral vectors (Anc- AAV) gene therapy for hearing and balance disorder.
Key Takeaways of the Global Viral Vector and Plasmid DNA Manufacturing Market:
- The global viral vector and plasmid DNA manufacturing market is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 22.8% over the forecast period, owing to rising incidence of cancer and infectious disease. For instance, according to the National Cancer Institute (NCI) estimation, in 2018, around 1,735,350 new cases of cancer were diagnosed in the U.S. Moreover, in November 2019, the Public Health England estimated that, nearly 103,800 people were living with HIV in the UK in 2018.
- Among product type, viral vector segment accounted for significant market share in 2018, owing to increasing funding for research and development of efficient products to meet the growing demand of the viral vectors. For instance, in February 2018, Cobra Biologics and Symbiosis Pharmaceutical Services received a 16-month collaborative funding of US$ 2.5 Mn from Innovate UK. The fund is expected to assist Cobra Biologics and Symbiosis Pharmaceutical Services for increasing commercial viral vector manufacturing capabilities within the U.K.
- Among therapeutic application, cancer segment accounted for significant market share in 2018. An increasing prevalence of cancer is expected to drive demand for gene therapies and create favorable opportunities for clinical stage biopharmaceutical companies to develop and manufacture novel gene therapies. For instance, according to the Cancer Research UK estimation, around 363,484 new cases of cancer were diagnosed from 2014 to 2016 in the UK.
- Companies operating in the global viral vector and plasmid DNA manufacturing market include Lonza Group AG, FinVector Vision Therapies, Cobra Biologics and Pharmaceutical Services, Sigma-Aldrich Co. LLC, VGXI, Inc., VIROVEK, SIRION Biotech GmbH, FUJIFILM Diosynth Biotechnologies U.S.A., Inc., Sanofi, Cell and Gene Therapy Catapult, Brammer Bio, and MassBiologics
