Market Dynamics
Advancements in exosome isolation techniques are expected to drive market growth.
With the fast advances in science and technology, many techniques have been developed to isolate exosomes in appreciable quantity and purity. Each technique exploits a particular trait of exosomes, such as their density, shape, size, and surface proteins to aid their isolation. For instance, Ultracentrifugation-based isolation techniques are considered the gold standard and are among the most commonly used and reported techniques in exosome isolation. It is estimated that ultracentrifugation accounts for 56% of all exosome isolation techniques employed by users in exosome research. Many often perceive this approach as easy to use, requiring very little technical expertise, affordability over time (i.e., one ultracentrifuge machine for long-term use), and moderately time-consuming with little or no sample pretreatments.
Moreover, there are two types of ultracentrifugation - analytical and preparative ultracentrifugation. As for exosome isolation, preparative ultracentrifugation plays an integral part since it is meant to fractionate small bioparticles such as viruses, bacteria, subcellular organelles, and extracellular vesicles. Therefore, ultracentrifugation-based techniques have become a rather popular option among researchers in exosome research.
Restraint:
Lack of awareness, high diagnostic costs and a high incidence of cancer in low-income groups, Exosome-based research products are approved under strict regulations are some of the factors the market is expected to hamper in the forecast period.
Market Segment Analysis
The diagnostic segment is expected to hold the largest market share in the exosome diagnostics and therapeutics market.
The diagnostic segment accounted for the largest market share in 2020. Early screening and accurate diagnosis are undoubtedly the primary issues for patients with tumors or precancerous lesions, reducing mortality and increasing the recovery rate. Exosomes play critical roles in various physiological and pathological processes, including cancer, pregnancy disorders, cardiovascular diseases, and immune responses. It is crucial to introduce liquid biopsy to clinical practice to reduce invasive operations and promote more precise medical intervention. Noninvasive liquid biopsy shows significant advantages for individualized and accurate diagnosis and treatment. Tumor-derived exosomes (TDEs) are critically related to tumor progression, metastatic niche formation, and immune evasion, which indicates that TDEs may hold great promise for cancer diagnosis, prognosis and treatment response assessment. For instance, In pancreatic cancer, a high probability of KRAS mutation in circulating exoDNA is found early. Given that the elevated level of GPC1+-circulating exosomes occurred in patients with pancreatic ductal carcinoma (PDAC) and colorectal cancer (CRC)compared to healthy controls, this could serve as an early detection tool for tumors in the digestive system. Therefore, from the above statements, the market is expected to hold the largest market share in the forecast period.
Market Geographical Share
North America region holds the largest market share in the global market
In 2020, North America accounted for the highest revenue share. The increasing prevalence of cancer-related deaths, significant rise with a rising focus on life science research, increased diagnostic procedures for cancer, and innovative and advanced applications of isolation kits in the region are some factors that the market is expected to boost in the forecast period. For instance, according to the American Cancer Society, In 2020, an estimated 1.8 million new cancer cases were diagnosed and 606,520 cancer deaths in the United States. In contrast, in 2021, there will be an estimated 1.9 million new cancer cases diagnosed and 608,570 cancer deaths in the United States. Moreover, AEGLE Therapeutics has spent decades researching clinical applications of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in severe dermatological disorders, including conducting clinical trials in burns and wounds under multiple INDs. Thus, from the above statements, the North American region is expected to hold the largest market share in the forecast period.
