NAGPUR, India, Oct. 9, 2015 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- The report "Gene Therapies: A Diverse Range of Technologies with a Promising Long-Term Outlook" discusses all gene therapies under the broad criteria of genetic material introduced to the cell for a therapeutic purpose. It includes not only the insertion of a gene into the cell for expression, but also gene silencing with RNA interference (RNAi) and antisense RNA, aptamers (DNA or RNA polymers which bind to a protein target), and oncolytic viruses. Despite few products having so far reached the market and captured strong revenues, the gene therapies pipeline remains large, with 906 products in active development across all stages. However, the majority of these remain in early steps of development, with 76% at either the Discovery or Preclinical stage.

The company's latest report "Gene Therapies: A Diverse Range of Technologies with a Promising Long-Term Outlook" states that oncology, infectious diseases, genetic disorders, cardiovascular diseases and ophthalmological indications are the most active pipeline sectors, as well as the most widely studied in terms of the number of clinical trials. There are 266 pipeline gene therapies in active development for oncology, more than double that of central nervous system disorders, which is the second-largest therapy area. Furthermore, oncology also accounted for 64% of gene therapies clinical trials between 1989 and 2012.

Gene therapies have been in development in humans for 25 years, and a number of products have begun to enter the pharmaceutical market. However, due to various challenges and clinical trial setbacks, progress in developing this technology and achieving suitability for commercial usage has been slow. Gene therapies only account for a marginal market share and many efficacy and safety concerns remain unaddressed. However, the pipeline is robust; 906 pipeline gene therapies are currently in development. Most are at an early stage of development, with 76% at the Discovery or Preclinical stage. However, there are currently 23 gene therapy programs in Phase III development and two at the Pre-registration stage. This indicates that although gene therapies are beginning to reach the market after two decades of research in humans, the majority remain in relatively early development.

Scope of this report includes:

Despite 25 years of clinical research, only a few gene therapies of all types have reached the market globally, and none have achieved strong clinical or commercial success -

  • Why do gene therapies still occupy only a minimal market share in their respective indications?
  • What can be learned from the gene therapies that have already reached the market?

A number of different viral and non-viral vector types are currently in development for the delivery of gene therapies -

  • What are the relative advantages and disadvantages of each vector type and which hold the most promise?
  • What proportion of the overall gene therapy R&D pipeline is occupied by each vector type?
