Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells Production Market Growth & Trends

The global induced pluripotent stem cells production market size is estimated to reach USD 1.76 billion by 2028, registering a CAGR of 8.0% over the forecast period, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is driven by technological advancements in induced pluripotent cell manufacturing, rising awareness about the therapeutic potency of such cells, and extensive research on the development of regenerative medicine using induced pluripotent cells. The ability of iPS cells to differentiate with maximum diversity has been one of the key drivers propelling its usage in gene and cell therapy applications.

The high therapeutic potential of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) has expanded its applications in the past few years making significant contributions to the market revenue. For instance, extensive research activities are being carried out on iPSC-derived exosomes, organoid-generation for drug testing, and iPSC-based vaccines. iPS cells have paved the way for the commercialization of innovative cell-based therapies in regenerative medicine owing to their ability to propagate indefinitely. In addition, iPS cells have extended their applications in regenerative medicines and therapies as they effectively avoid the ethical limitations of human embryonic stem cells and lower the risks of immune rejection, contamination, & infection.

Degenerative eye disorders are the most common targeted disorders in induced pluripotent cell-based clinical trials, along with cardiac syndromes, such as myocardial ischemia and heart failure, followed by spinal cord injury and neuropathies - Parkinson’s disease, and thrombocytopenia from aplastic anemia. Moreover, the rising popularity of automated platforms for iPS cells production is further contributing to the industry growth. The automated production platform offers an ideal chance of reliable reproducibility of cells in addition to cost reduction and increases throughput.

Acknowledging the profitable opportunities posed by the market, key players in the induced pluripotent stem cells generation industry are focusing on mergers & acquisitions to strengthen their presence. In March 2021, Axol Biosciences signed a merger agreement with Censo Biotechnology. This entity is set to become one of the leading providers of products and services in the iPSC-based immune cell, neuroscience, and cardiac modeling for the drug discovery and screening market.
