Key takeaways of the AAV vector market are briefly discussed below.

AAV Based Gene Therapy Market Landscape: Elevidys Becomes the Latest AAV Gene Therapy to Receive Approval

Novartis Gene Therapies was the first company to receive EMA approval for an AAV based gene therapy in 2012, when Glybera received marketing authorization for treatment of inherited metabolic disorder lipoprotein lipase (LPL) deficiency (LPLD). The journey for the drug was short as it never received a go ahead from the FDA and was withdrawn from European market in 2017. Although the event questioned the development of AAV as a delivery vector for gene therapies, the pharmaceutical industry has seen six successful approvals since 2019. Zolgensma (Novartis Gene Therapies), Luxturna (Spark Therapeutics), Hemgenix (CSL Behring / UniQure), Roctavian (BioMarin Pharmaceuticals), Upstaza (PTC Therapeutics) and recently approved Elevidys (Sarepta Therapeutics) are six AAV based gene therapy available in either the US or EU markets for treatment of various indications. Zolgensma uses recombinant AAV9 vector for delivery of SMN1 gene to treat patients with spinal muscular atrophy. According to the financial information provided by Novartis Gene Therapies, Zolgensma generated net sales of USD 1,370 million in full year 2022 and is amongst the top 10 products in the company’s innovative medicines division. Presently, more than 550 AAV based gene therapy are being evaluated by drug developers worldwide, details of which have been captured in our market report.

Clinical Trials Landscape: North America is the Hub for Clinical Trials Evaluating AAV Based Gene Therapy 

Over the past years, more than 155 clinical trials evaluating AAV gene therapy have been registered across different regions of the world. We have identified more than 120 active clinical trials worldwide. More than 7,000 patients are enrolled in these clinical trials, geographical distribution for which is available in this market report. In November 2022, MeiraGTx started recruiting patients in a phase I clinical trial of its AAV gene therapy AAV-GAD for Parkinson’s disease. Parkinson’s disease is an indication in early stages of evaluation for treatment with AAV based gene therapy. In March 2023, Asklepios BioPharmaceutical, a subsidiary of Bayer AG, announced the presentation of clinical trial results from a phase 1b study of its AAV gene therapy AB-1005 at AD/PD™ 2023 Advances in Science & Therapy Conference in Sweden. The candidate is also being developed for the treatment of mild to moderate Parkinson’s disease. The evaluation of AAV based gene therapy for treatment of neurological disorders is expected to be a market driver in the long term. 

AAV Manufacturing Companies: A Number of Manufacturers Have Developed Their Proprietary AAV Technology to Support Manufacturing

More than 80 companies across the globe have the required capabilities to manufacture adeno-associated viral vectors.
