Natural Killer Cells Therapeutics Market - Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Opportunity, and Forecast, 2017-2027 Segmented by Type (Natural Killer Cell Therapies v/s Natural Killer Cell Directed Antibodies)
The global natural killer cells therapeutics market is anticipated to witness an impressive growth during the forecast period. This can be ascribed to growing patient pool suffering from various chronic diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, among others. According to global cancer observatory, around 19,292,789 new cancer cases were reported worldwide in 2020, with breast cancer, lung cancer, colorectum cancer, prostate cancer and stomach cancer being the most prevalent types. This has increased the demand for effective treatment options for finding a cure for cancer, thereby driving the growth of global natural killer cells therapeutics market. Additionally, growing focus of biotechnology & pharmaceutical companies and academic & research institutions across the globe for developing cost effective and potent treatments for different chronic diseases is expected to create lucrative opportunities for the market growth in the coming years. These companies and research organizations are conducting research & development activities and launching clinical trials in search of a potential natural killer cells therapeutics solution for different chronic and acute diseases. According, to clinicaltrials.gov, there are around 199 clinical trials related to natural killer cells are in some phase of development worldwide.
Application of the Natural Killer Cells in Treatment of Critical Diseases
Increasing application of natural killer cells for the treatment of various disease including liver diseases, infections, cancer, among others is expected to drive the growth of global natural killer cells therapeutics market in the forecast period. In addition to this, the natural killer cells play a pivotal role in the immune surveillance of tumor. This in turn is leading to the widespread adoption of natural killer cells therapeutics across the world. Besides, natural killer cells have specific attaching ability and ability to discard stressed cells. All these benefits associated with natural killer cells is expected to drive the growth of global natural killer cells therapeutics market during the forecast period.
Rise in Awareness about Immunotherapies
The prevalence of cancer has increased worldwide over the years and the available treatment options are not that efficient since a lot of instances of reoccurrence of tumours has been witnessed, arising the need for development of an effective and permanent treatment. Immunotherapies have gained much attention in recent years to treat different malignancies. Among all the immunotherapies, CAR –T cell therapies have been studied and were used but have various limitations that led to the development of natural killer (NK) cell therapies. Growing the awareness among the population about various immunotherapies and increase in research and development of bi-specific antibody for engaging natural killer cells to eliminate tumor cells are driving the global natural killer (NK) cell therapeutics market.
