Report Outlook

The global induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) market was valued at USD 2.34 billion in 2022 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.7% during the forecast period.

Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are cells derived from adult somatic tissues that undergo reprogramming by introducing specific genes and factors. This reprogramming process allows the iPSCs to acquire pluripotent properties similar to embryonic stem cells. By reprogramming cells from the same individual, iPSCs provide a valuable tool for disease modeling.

Retroviruses are used as vectors to deliver the necessary genes and factors for iPSC reprogramming. iPSCs find applications in various fields, including disease modeling, drug discovery and development, toxicity studies, and gene therapies. They have shown promise in treating cardiovascular diseases, diabetes mellitus, and different types of cancer. Human iPSCs, in particular, exhibit disease-specific genotypes, enabling novel therapeutic approaches tailored to individual patients.

The use of iPSCs allows researchers to study diseases in a more relevant and personalized manner, as these cells closely resemble the genetic makeup of the donor. It opens up new possibilities for understanding disease mechanisms and developing targeted therapies. iPSCs have the potential to revolutionize the field of regenerative medicine and provide innovative solutions for various medical conditions.

The iPSC market is experiencing rapid growth due to increased demand for vaccine production, rising investments in the sector, and a widening application portfolio through continuous research and development activities. Both private and government organizations are actively setting up infrastructure to support iPSC research, further driving the induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) market growth.

iPSC cells serve as a unique model for studying mammalian processes and have shown promising results in cell therapy for human diseases. Their ability to reproduce and self-renew during differentiation is a significant advantage. Differentiation types, whether spontaneous or directed, result in specific epigenome and transcriptome adjustments, benefiting the iPSC industry.

The iPSC market is experiencing significant growth driven by the increasing number of research studies and over 120 ongoing clinical trials utilizing iPSCs for disease intervention. The advantages of iPSCs, such as their ability to replace animal models and their ethical flexibility compared to embryonic stem cells, further contribute to market expansion.

Numerous companies and research organizations are exploring the therapeutic potential of stem cell products and developing cell-based therapeutics for targeted diseases. For instance, Novo Nordisk A/S partnered with Heartseed Inc. in June 2021 to develop and commercialize HS-001, cleaned cardiomyocytes derived from iPSCs, as a cell therapy for heart failure. These collaborations and advancements in iPSC technology are driving the market's growth.

Industry Dynamics

Growth Drivers

Growing realization of the need to culture human iPSCs

Companies and research institutes are trying to develop methods for producing induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) that minimize the risk of genetic mutations and malignant transformation. Worldwide, there is a growing realization of the need to culture human iPSCs without using animal cells, and significant efforts are being directed toward achieving this goal. Standardization of cell culture and differentiation conditions is also a focus of attention.

Shortly, iPSCs are expected to be an alternative to embryonic stem cells (ESCs), particularly in pharmaceutical screening and cell replacement therapy. The similarity between iPSCs and ESCs and the ability to generate iPSCs from specific patient cells in unlimited quantities contribute to this trend and is expected to drive market growth. Despite being a relatively new industry, intensive research and activities related to patient-specific iPSCs and directed iPSC differentiation are key industry trends that will fuel induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) market growth in the forecast period.
