The global biologics market size is expected to reach USD 1,009.37 billion by 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is expected to expand at a CAGR of 10.3% from 2023 to 2030. Increasing burden of cancer, neurological diseases, genetic diseases and autoimmune diseases and approval of novel biologic drugs such as gene therapy, RNAi therapeutics, and antibody-drug conjugates are a few factors driving the biologics market.
As of 2022, there were already 27 cell and gene therapy drugs approved in the U.S., with five of them receiving approval that year. Sarepta’s gene therapy SRP-9001, which is currently in phase 3 trials for the treatment of duchenne muscular dystrophy has a PDUFA date set for May 29, 2023. Other potential gene therapy candidates in the pipeline include Krystal Biotech’s Beremagene geperpavec (B-VEC) for dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa; UniQure’s AMT-130 for Huntington disease; Intellia’s NTLA-2001 and NTLA-2002 for transthyretin (ATTR) amyloidosis; Nanoscope’s MCO-010 and Pfizer’s Fidanacogene elaparvovec for hemophilia B. The approval and subsequent commercialization of these gene therapy candidates are expected to drive growth in the biologics market.
Monoclonal antibodies account for the largest number of biologics approved. While the approval of traditional monoclonal antibodies has slowed down, next-generation antibodies such a bispecific-monoclonal antibodies, antibody fragments, radio-immunotherapies, nanobodies, and antibody-drug conjugates is driving the growth of this segment. For instance, in September 2021, the U.S. FDA approved Seagen’s Tivdak a new antibody-drug conjugate for the treatment of cervical cancer.
The biologics market faces significant challenges, primarily related to the high costs associated with their development and production. Biologics are complicated compounds that necessitate specialized production procedures, and the development cost might be prohibitively expensive. Furthermore, increasing competition from biosimilars is also a key restraining factor for the market. In 2021, Europe approved seven new biosimilars, a slight decrease from the nine approved in 2020. It is anticipated that during the forecast years oncology, endocrine and blood related disorders are the key therapies areas in which biologic drugs will face patent expiry.
