North American Market Forecast
The market share of CRISPR and CAS gene technology in North America, amongst the market in all the other regions, is projected to be the largest with a share of about 37% by the end of 2037. The growth of the market can be attributed majorly to the increasing growing investment of governmental and non-governmental agencies in R&D activities regarding CRISPR and CAS gene technology, accompanied by the presence of leading pharma & biotech companies and their early adoption of CRISPR technology. Along with this, North America also leads in terms of ongoing clinical trials, which is also expected to contribute to the market growth in the region. The increasing number of key players in the region investing the gene technology to improve biosimilars and biomedical drugs is estimated to hike the market growth. Many new biosimilars are developed in the U.S. for existing drugs. For instance, in 2019 Mvasi made by Amgen, and in 2020 Zirabev made by Pfizer are biosimilars approved by U.S. Food and Drug Administration for Avastin which is a Genetech product. Similarly, the Lantus of Sanofi has Semglee and Basaglar which are biosimilars from Viatris and Eli Lily companies developed in 2020.
APAC Market Statistics
The Asia Pacific CRISPR and CAS gene technology market is estimated to be the second largest, registering a share of about 24% by the end of 2037. The growth of the market can be attributed majorly to the rising investments in CRISPR and CAS gene technology and increasing research collaborations between universities and biotech companies in the region. Along with this, the Asia Pacific region has an increasing prevalence of chronic disorders, which is also expected to drive market growth in the region.
