Custom Antibody Market Growth & Trends
The global custom antibody market size is expected to reach USD 301.7 million by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 9.7% from 2023 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is expected to witness substantial growth during the forecast period. This growth is attributed to the increasing fundraising by biotech startups for developing innovative products. Additionally, rising awareness of personalized diagnostic and therapeutic treatments in emerging markets is also a contributing factor to the growth of the custom antibody market.
Increasing investment by the players to expand their services in the development and production of antibodies is likely to support the growth of the market. For instance, Absolute Antibody Ltd. is into the services of custom antibody sequencing, expression, and engineering. In August 2022, the company announced the expansion of its manufacturing facility by increasing the lab space and investing in automated technology such as next-generation sequencing, purification, and expression. The expansion is expected to improve the production workflow for recombinant antibodies.
Similarly, companies are also improving the application of custom antibodies. According to an article published in January 2023, MilliporeSigma is planning to develop new antibodies through its Cell Marque Tissue Diagnostics technology. The rabbit polyclonal antibody is customized to detect a type of glioma, ATRX. Gliomas account for 30% of tumors in the central nervous system. Through this antibody, the company is anticipated to expand its portfolio in neuropathology.
Monetary support to academic and research institutions through grants from regulatory bodies and discount offers on services by companies are anticipated to enhance custom antibody discovery and research during the forecast period. For instance, Absolute antibody offers 10% off on custom services, while a similar discount is also offered by AltaBioscience for a limited time period. The discounts are expected to reduce the overall cost of production for researchers.
However, the high cost of producing custom monoclonal antibodies is expected to restrain the growth of the custom antibody market. The average estimated cost is around USD 6,000 to 15,000. The cost acts as a market entry barrier for various startups and emerging players. However, the cost can be reduced by developing reliable production reagents and techniques to avoid the upfront cost.
