Leukapheresis Market Size & Trends
The global leukapheresis market size was estimated at USD 211.3 million in 2024 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 11.05% from 2025 to 2030. The increasing prevalence of blood disorders and autoimmune diseases, technological advancements in leukapheresis procedures, and growing demand for personalized medicine are expected to drive the market growth. Moreover, the increasing investments in research and development activities are further contributing to the market growth.
The rising incidence of blood disorders like leukemia, lymphoma, and autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis are significantly driving the market growth. For instance, the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society reports that an estimated total of 184,720 people in the U.S. are expected to receive a diagnosis of leukemia, lymphoma, or myeloma in 2023. Similarly, in May 2023, a study in The Lancet involving 22 million people found autoimmune disorders affect 1 in 10 individuals, highlighting the influence of socioeconomic, seasonal, and regional factors and offers insights into the causes of these diseases, including Rheumatoid arthritis, Type 1 diabetes, and Multiple sclerosis. Thus, propelling the demand for leukapheresis over the forecast period.
The advancements in leukapheresis technologies are improving the efficiency, safety, and outcomes of the procedure. The introduction of automated systems, continuous flow centrifugation systems, and closed-system devices is expected to enhance the precision and effectiveness of leukapheresis. Thereby reducing the procedure times, minimizing donor discomfort, and optimizing cell collection yields. In October 2022, the Clinical Applications Committee of The American Society for Apheresis (ASFA), along with the IEC Therapy Subcommittee, AABB, and various other organizations, prepared a white paper. This document outlines guidelines for performing leukapheresis to retrieve mononuclear cells from pediatric and adult patients who are part of immune effector cell therapies, whether for commercial endeavors or research initiatives. Thus, anticipated to propel the market growth over the forecast period.
The shift towards personalized medicine approaches that tailor treatment strategies to individual patient profiles is fueling the demand for leukapheresis procedures. Leukapheresis plays a crucial role in cell-based therapies, such as chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy and stem cell transplantation. In December 2023, an article in Transfusion and Apheresis Science underscored the challenges in manufacturing CAR-T cells, beginning with the extraction of T cells through leukapheresis from peripheral blood. The article emphasized the critical role of an effective leukapheresis product in achieving successful CAR-T cell therapy and highlighted the significance of comprehending the factors that impact T cell quality.
