The growth is majorly driven by the rising R&D spending in pharmaceutical companies, emerging cell culture technologies for cell-based vaccines, increasing demand for monoclonal antibodies, growth in stem cell research, the launch of new cell culture media by market players, and the growing focus on personalized medicine. On the other hand, expensive cell biology research products and ethical concerns regarding cell biology research are expected to hinder the growth.
Emerging cell culture technologies for cell-based vaccines;
In the pharmaceutical industry, cell culture has become a prominent part of vaccine production. The cell culture technology has been used to produce vaccines for rotavirus, polio, smallpox, hepatitis, rubella, and chickenpox. Cell-based flu vaccines have also been approved for use in the US and many European countries.
Earlier, vaccines were manufactured by growing and harvesting viruses in chicken eggs, which was a time-consuming process. On the other hand, cell culture-based vaccine production is a far more efficient method. Its advantages over traditional manufacturing methods include a shortened lead-time and the capability to produce vaccines in larger quantities as per demand. Moreover, cell culture-based vaccines can be stored over a longer period. According to a study published by the CDC in the Journal of Infectious Diseases (June 2020), cell-based vaccines provided greater protection against flu-related hospitalizations than standard-dose egg-based vaccines among Medicare beneficiaries 65 years and older. For the 2020-2021 flu season, all four flu viruses used in Flucelvax Quadrivalent were cell-derived. Consequently, recent years have seen a surge in cell-based vaccines, resulting in efforts by prominent companies to capitalize on the opportunities provided. Seqirus, for example, has been active in this field.
- In February 2020, Seqirus (a part of CSL Limited) received US FDA approval for AUDENZ, a cell-based Influenza A (H5N1) Monovalent Vaccine for individuals aged six months and older.
- In January 2019, Seqirus received approval from the European Commission for its new cell-based seasonal influenza vaccine, FLUCELVAX TETRA.
