January 2026 | Report Format: Electronic (PDF)

Vaccine Adjuvants Market Growth & Trends

The global vaccine adjuvants market size is expected to reach USD 5.96 billion by 2033, registering a CAGR of 5.60% from 2026 to 2033, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The significance of adjuvant research in the development of vaccines has increased gradually due to inadequate immunogenicity of innovative vaccine antigens. In addition, the growing focus on long-lasting immunization effect against existing and emerging diseases is expected to boost the demand for vaccine adjuvants.

Furthermore, rising prevalence of cervical cancer is anticipated to boost the market. According to NCBI, around 15,000 females die every year due to cervical cancer. There are certain companies developing vaccine adjuvants for this type of cancer in order to enhance the efficacy, such as AS04 adjuvant-adsorbed (human papillomavirus vaccine) by GSK, which boosts the immune response for a longer duration.
