The global aptamers market has been estimated to reach USD 401.30 million in 2023. The market is expected to register a CAGR of 17.89% during the forecast period, 2018 to 2023. North America dominates the market due to increasing technological advancements.
Advancements in the Field of Aptamer Development Technologies
Advancements in aptamer development technologies, increasing R&D expenditure, and rising number of companies investing in this market are some of the key driving factors responsible for the growth of this market. Numerous advantages offered by these small molecules, in comparison to established antibodies, have also led to higher demand for these molecules across a diverse range of medical applications. They are chemically synthesized, which eliminates batch-to-batch variation and demands less time for development. Along with this, continuous advancement in technologies is expected to stimulate growth.
Low Awareness Level and Incomplete Regulatory Policies Slow Down the Market Growth
Many aptamers have failed to meet the requisite safety and efficacy standards in clinical studies. Thus, companies have to terminate their clinical investigation during late-stage clinical studies. This factor is likely to affect the growth of this market negatively. In addition, other factors, such as low awareness about these technologies in middle- & low-income countries and inadequate regulatory structure, may hamper the overall growth.
North America to Dominate the Market
The aptamers market is segmented by type of treatment and geography. By geography, it is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East & Africa, and South America.
North America dominates the aptamers market due to rapid technological advancements and high investment & funding to support the development of aptamers. Asia-Pacific is also expected to propel the aptamers market, owing to factors, such as increasing research & development activities and economic growth.
