The global aptamers market size is estimated to value USD 242.3 million in 2022 and grow USD 523.5 million by 2027, growing at a CAGR of 16.66 % during the forecast period.
Aptamers are oligonucleotides that bind to a target protein, lipid, or nucleic acid molecules with high specificity. Aptamers are generated quickly and applied in the inhibition, characterization of proteins, and specific detection and can be used as pharmaceutical leads, functional proteomic levels with antibodies, detection reagents, and small molecules. Aptamers can be engineered to have higher specificity and affinity for several targets.
The key players' enormous opportunities are drug discovery, biomarker discovery, and diagnostics segments. The launch of Macugen, the first aptamer drug and the first diagnostic test for testing mycotoxins in grains, has recognized the potential of aptamers in diagnostics and therapeutics. The global market for aptamers is expected to grow, backed by technological advancements concerning selection processes and synthesis.
MARKET DRIVERS:
The primary factors driving the growth of the global aptamers market are technological advancements and increasing R & D investments in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries.
Low cost and high efficacy in binding to large molecules compared to antibodies and the patent expiration of systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment technology (SELEX) will positively boost this market.
Additionally, factors such as betterments in the development technologies of aptamers, growing investments for the R&D by the key market players to develop and produce recombinant products are supporting the global aptamers market. Increasing the aptamers for drug discoveries and disease treatment may enhance market growth during the forecast period. Growing FDA approvals for the first aptamers drug is expected to drive market growth during the forecast period. Increasing awareness by producers and encouraging pipeline are escalating market growth. Less cost of the aptamers market, growing research, and development investments towards biotechnology and pharmaceutical sectors boost the aptamers market growth globally.
The growing adoption of aptamers in chemical and food industries and increasing demand among the public for the aptamers due to their benefits, such as their high efficiency and low cost compared to antibodies, are further expected to drive the global aptamers market.
MARKET RESTRAINTS:
Stringent regulations in the use of aptamers, Ethical issues of the aptamers obtained from the animals, slow in reaching the marketplace due to regulatory hurdles, hinder the market's growth. Furthermore, the Lack of proper regular guidelines on molecular development hinders the overall growth during the period. The shortage of trained and expert professionals may obstruct the aptamer's growth. Less market acceptance restricts the market growth during the forecast period. Low awareness about the latest technologies in middle and low-income countries and insufficient regulatory structure impedes growth globally. Many aptamers have failed to meet the required safety and efficiency standards over the clinical studies during the forecast period. Unfavorable characteristics of the aptamers obstruct the growth.
Impact of COVID-19 on the global aptamers market:
As COVID-19, which SARS-CoV-2 causes, continues to infect millions of people worldwide, the race to develop new diagnoses, treatment, and preventive measures is more important than ever. To build a complete management regimen, a framework of diagnostics, treatments, and, most critically, vaccinations are being developed.
Aptamer, a single-stranded folded RNA or DNA that can bind and detect different nucleic and non-nucleic acid compounds with great affinity and specificity, is one of the new DNA receptors. In recent years, the use of aptamer probes for viral detection has grown. Aptamers, which are multipotent biological probes, might be great choices for developing sensitive and specific biosensors. Although just a few types of research have focused on specific coronavirus aptamer types, they may aid in determining the optimal method for obtaining particular aptamers for this virus. Any viral infection sign, including viral genes, proteins, and antibodies, might be detected using aptamers. Aptamers may be beneficial in this pandemic because they may be used to both screens for and treat COVID-19, which is particularly beneficial given the limitations of existing techniques due to resource and equipment availability. Considering the aforementioned factors, the global aptamers market is expected to showcase healthy growth during the forecast period.
