Global Apoptosis Assays Market - 2023-2030
Global Apoptosis Assays Market reached US$ XX Million in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ XX Million by 2030, growing with a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period 2023-2030.
Apoptosis assay detects and quantifies the cellular events associated with programmed cell death, including caspase activation, cell surface exposure of phosphatidylserine (PS), and DNA fragmentation. Cellular apoptosis assays to detect programmed cell death using Annexin V, Caspase, and TUNEL DNA fragmentation assays.
Cell-based assays detect specific cell death processes across the apoptotic timeline. Apoptosis assay kits and reagents are available for investigations in programmed cell death, a natural part of the cell's life cycle.
Market DynamicsIncrease in the innovative apoptotic assay kits is expected to drive the market growth
Apoptosis Assay Kit is designed to monitor apoptotic, necrotic, and healthy cells simultaneously. Innovative apoptosis kits offer advanced technologies and technological procedures, which reduces the time in research studies. Thus, these factors increase the demand for the kits, which drives the market growth.
For instance, on December 9, 2022, TransGen introduced 4 Annexin V testing kits with different probes and dyes for early apoptosis detection using flow cytometry or fluorescence microscopy. These kits are easy to operate, highly sensitive and specific, and are suitable for detecting early apoptosis of the cells.
Additionally, on September 20, 2022, Nanolive marketed the LIVE Cell Death Assay, a push button, automated solution for profiling cell health, death, apoptosis, and necrosis, label-free. Based on a machine learning (ML) algorithm, it classifies cellular objects completely label-free as living or dead, distinguishing apoptotic and necrotic cells.
Additionally, the increase in novel therapeutics and the increase in the number of cancer research for developing advanced treatments act as driving factors of the market growth.
High investments required in research and development are expected to hamper the market growth
Higher costs of developing a cancer drug can impact the cost of the assays. It is estimated that the average R&D cost per new drug ranges from less than $1 Million to more than $2 Million per drug. For instance, Dinutuximab, a drug used for post-consolidation therapy for childhood-risk neuroblastoma, costs $276 million to develop. Thus, the high cost of developing a drug can affect the market growth.
Segment AnalysisThe global apoptosis market is segmented based on product, detection technology, application, end-user, and region.
Flow cytometry holds the largest market share in the global apoptosis assays market
The flow cytometry segment holds a significant position in the apoptosis assay market share due to the efficiency of the technique over the other methods. It is one of the most popular and versatile applications for studying apoptosis. It offers the ability to study large numbers of cells individually rather than in a mixed population, examining simultaneously the expression of many proteins like cell-specific markers and indicators of apoptosis.
It has wide applications in the pharmaceutical industry because it provides a way to understand the drug's mechanism of action in the drug discovery process. To stratify a better target for patients, it is necessary to understand the mechanism of drug action, which flow cytometry does.
On June 3, 2022, BD launched an advanced flow cytometry system that sorts cells based on their inner workings. The new BD FACSDiscover S8 Cell Sorter features the breakthrough BD cell view image technology.
Additionally, it has a variety of applications in research and development. Flow Cytometry detects changes in the plasma and mitochondrial membranes, caspase activity, nuclear condensation, and fragmentation as possible indicators of apoptosis. Flow cytometry allows the study of all aspects of apoptosis, from induction via surface receptors, to late stages where DNA fragmentation occurs. Thus, the above factors allow the usage of a flow cytometer in apoptosis studies. Thus, flow cytometry holds a significant market share.
Geographical PenetrationNorth America is expected to hold a significant position in the global apoptosis assays market share
An increase in the development of anticancer drugs in the region is expected to hold the region in the dominant market share. Apoptosis assays elucidate the cell death-related events during tumor cell killing by anti-cancer drugs. Apoptosis assays are available for single and multi-time point analysis as well as real-time live-cell imaging. Many anticancer drugs are designed to kill cells by inducing apoptosis.
The increase in the number of cancer cases is influencing the development and launches of new drugs, thus increasing the region’s market share. For instance, according to the American Cancer Society, it is estimated that 1.9 million new cancer cases have been diagnosed and 609,360 cancer deaths in the United States in 2022. Thus, increasing the development of drugs for the treatment of cancer.
An increase in the development and approvals of anticancer drugs increases apoptosis studies to evaluate the mechanism of the drug. For instance, on September 2, 2022, the FDA approved durvalumab in combination with gemcitabine and cisplatin for adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic biliary tract cancer. Thus, the number of anticancer drug approvals is expected to hold the region in the dominant position in the apoptosis assays market
COVID-19 Impact Analysis
COVID-19 has impacted the growth of the apoptosis assays market. The shift of focus to research and developing novel products for treating COVID-19 has created a negative impact on the apoptosis assays market growth. The delay in approvals of the kits has also affected the market growth. The delay in drug discovery has also impacted the apoptosis assays market.
