The global cellular starting materials market size is anticipated to reach USD 4.84 billion by 2030, growingand is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 22.74% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The increasing prevalence of chronic diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and autoimmune disorders, rising investments, growing demand for cell and gene-based therapies, and technological innovations are expected to enhance the cellular starting materials market over the forecast period.
Cellular starting materials play a crucial role in supporting the development of cell and gene therapies. They are essential for both autologous and allogeneic cell therapies. As the field of cell therapy continues to expand rapidly, the demand for high-quality human cellular starting material is increasingincreases. Cell-based treatments are being investigated for a variety of conditions, including oncology, neurodegenerative disorders, and autoimmune diseases, leading to increased demand for different types of starting materials. Moreover, ongoing advancements in bioprocessing technologies, cell culture techniques, and quality control measures have enhanced the efficiency and scalability of manufacturing cellular starting materials, enabling companies to meet the increasing demand for these materials while maintaining product quality and consistency.
The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact onsignificantly impacted the market, with disruptions in supply chains and manufacturing processes leading to shortages and delays in manufacturing timelines. In the case of autologous cell therapies, the pandemic has caused extended patient collection times as patient-derived cells are used as starting material. However, the pandemic also underscored the importance of cell-based therapies and led to increased investments in the sector and accelerated regulatory approvals for some treatments.
However, strict regulations related to cell therapies present a major challenge to the cellular starting materials market. These regulations increase the costs of manufacturing cell and gene therapy products and obtaining the starting material. Various regions around the worldworldwide have established specific regulations governing the collection, processing, and use of cellular starting material for cell therapies. Cellular therapy products meeting specific criteria outlined in 21 CFR 1271.10(a) are regulated solely as Human Cells, Tissues, and Cellular and & Tissue-Based Products (HCT/Ps) under Section 361 of the Public Health Service Act of the U.S.
