Next Generation Drug Conjugates Market, 2023-2035 (Forecasted Estimates)
NEXT GENERATION DRUG CONJUGATES MARKET
The global market for the next generation drug conjugates is expected to grow at a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of more than 20% during the forecast period.
The next generation drug conjugates, owing to their non-immunogenic nature, better clinical profile, structural stability, limited side effects, targeted delivery of payload, deeper cellular penetration, and permeability, have emerged as the viable targeted therapeutics for rare disease indications, including cancers. Over the last decade, the standard cost of medical care for rare disease indications has increased exponentially. Specifically, in the US, close to USD 1 trillion was spent for medical care for rare diseases in 2020. Further, the average cost incurred by a patient suffering from a rare disease condition was USD 60,248 in 2020, which if taken into account is twice the average cost incurred by any general patient. The incremental rise in medicare cost, coupled with the rising burden of rare disease indications globally, prompted the stakeholders to look for alternatives to the conventional therapies, and next generation drug conjugates have emerged as a promising treatment option.
Owing to the structural similarity with antibody drug conjugates (ADCs), and various advantages related to clinical efficacy and stability over ADCs, the next generation drug conjugates have emerged as its direct viable alternative. Similar to ADCs, the next generation drug conjugates utilize a targeting ligand, a linker and a payload for the targeted delivery. However, unlike ADCs, which use antibody as the targeting ligand, the next generation drug conjugates utilize various non-antibody-based targeting ligands, such as peptides, amino sugar, lipid, and small molecule as their targeting agent. Further, in place of drug, it utilizes oligonucleotide, antisense oligonucleotide, si-RNA, drug, and radionuclide as their payload.
As a result of various synergistic combinations with the targeting ligand and payload, various types of next generation drug conjugates, such as peptide drug conjugate, peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (peptide radionuclide conjugate), GalNac conjugates, peptide oligonucleotide conjugate, si-RNA conjugate, small molecule-drug conjugate (SMDC), ligand conjugated anti sense medicine (LICA), and peptide conjugated phosphorodiamidate morpholino oligomers (PPMO) have emerged in the domain of targeted therapeutics. The success of these next generation drug conjugates can be attributed to their clinical effectiveness, and its ability to target wide range of therapeutic modalities, including solid tumors, multiple myeloma, metabolic disorders, and hematological disorders. Till date, six next generation drug conjugates have been approved by the USFDA for therapeutic purposes, which include Lutathera® and Pluvicto®, peptide receptor radionuclide therapy, developed by Advanced Accelerator Applications, and Givlaari®, Oxlumo®, Leqvio® and Amvuttra® (GalNac conjugates) developed by Alnylam Pharmaceuticals.
With the ongoing pace of innovation in this field, encouraging clinical trial results, accelerated approvals, and the continuous efforts of both industry and non-industry players, the next generation drug conjugates market is likely to witness significant growth during the forecast period.
