The global cellular immunotherapy market was surpassed at USD 6.22 billion in 2021 and is expected to hit around USD 38.2 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 22.34% from 2022 to 2030.
Report Highlights
Growing support from government organizations and research institutes including the National Cancer Institute (NCI) and Center of Excellence in Immunology (CEI) for cellular immunotherapies research is one of the major factors driving the market growth. For instance, the CEI pulls out experts from other institutes such as NCI and NIH to promote the growth of immunotherapy for the treatment of cancer. Also, the Surgery Branch of the National Cancer Institute's Center for Cancer Research (CCR) is committed to the innovation of novel immunotherapies for the treatment of cancer patients.
The rising number of M&As, collaborations, acquisitions, and funding is a major trend observed in the market. M&A and collaboration help companies expand their existing product portfolio and regional reach in a short period. For instance, in March 2021, TrakCel received funding from Labcorp and AmerisourceBergen for cellular therapy orchestration research and global expansion. Also, in April 2020, Kite (a Gilead Company) and Teneobio, Inc. entered into a license agreement through which Kite will receive exclusive rights to specific antibodies targeted to B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA). Thus, such M&A and collaborations are expected to boost the market growth.
A substantial number of cellular immunotherapy companies are engaged in new product launches, pertaining to licensing, collaborations, & acquisitions, and regional expansion. Some of the key companies in the market are Bristol-Myers Squibb Company; Novartis AG; Gilead Sciences Inc. (Kite Pharma); F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd.; and Johnson & Johnson. These companies are adopting various business models to gain a competitive advantage. For instance, in February 2021, Novartis secured approval for the first Australian commercial CAR-T manufacturing site for Kymriah. With this approval, the company would be able to develop Kymriah in Australia, thereby providing easy access to Australian patients.
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a high impact on the market. Owing to stringent regulations to curb the pandemic, a slowdown in clinical trials, approval of new drugs, and delayed cancer diagnosis have been observed, affecting the industry's growth amid the pandemic. However, in several countries, the effect of COVID-19 declined after the third quarter of 2021, which helped the market regain traction.

Therapy Type Insights
CAR T cell therapy held the largest market share of the market and is expected to expand at the fastest rate during the forecast period. This can be attributed to a lucrative product pipeline and new product approvals. Owing to its promising therapeutic results, market players are extensively invested in the R&D of new CAR T cell therapy. Currently, there are more than 500 trials underway for CAR T cell therapy. New product approvals and subsequent launches of products are expected to accelerate the market growth during the forthcoming years. For instance, in February 2022, Janssen Global Services, LLC’s CARVYKTI (ciltacabtagene autoleucel) received FDA approval. It is indicated for the treatment of multiple myeloma.
However, high cost of therapy and improper reimbursement scenario, especially in lower-income and middle-income countries, are anticipated to impede the growth. For instance, the one-time infusion cost for Cilta-cel is around 465,000 USD.
Indication Insights
The B-cell malignancy segment accounted for the highest revenue share in 2021 and is expected to advance at the fastest rate throughout the forecast period, which can be attributed to high cellular immunotherapy product penetration for the treatment of B-cell malignancy. Availability of products such as BREYANZI and Yescarta for treating B-cell malignancy are among the primary factors contributing to its high market growth. BREYANZI received FDA approval in February 2021; in its first financial year, it generated a revenue of approximately USD 87 million.
Prostate cancer is expected to hold a significant market share of cellular immunotherapy in 2021. It is the second most commonly occurring cancer in the world after lung cancer. According to WHO, in 2020, it was estimated that 1.4 million people were diagnosed with prostate cancer globally, and this number is expected to grow in the coming decades. In addition, the availability of advanced products such as Sipuleucel-T is another factor that supports the segment growth.
End-use Insights
Hospitals dominated the end-use segment in the global market in 2021. The rising prevalence of cancer has increased the total number of hospitalizations worldwide, leading to a rise in patients in hospital settings. Moreover, infusion of cellular immunotherapy requires skilled healthcare practitioners; such requirements are more compatible with hospital settings, which further increases patient compliance.
Cancer institutes segment is expected to progress at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period. Better availability of products and ease of reimbursement are the major factors propelling the growth of this segment. Cancer institutes offer advanced treatment and care to a high number of patients as well as enable quick reimbursement, resulting in a rising number of patients opting for cancer institute settings.
Regional Insights
North America dominated the market in terms of revenue in 2021, owing to its well-established healthcare infrastructure, availability of advanced therapies, high disposable income, and high per capita healthcare expenditure. The presence of a robust research infrastructure, coupled with a large number of clinical studies being conducted by cell therapy manufacturers in the U.S., has majorly contributed to the dominance of the market in the region.
The Asia Pacific region is expected to exhibit the highest growth rate due to untapped opportunities in the region and growing awareness about cellular immunotherapy, coupled with the rapidly developing healthcare infrastructure. In the Asia Pacific, China is advancing at the fastest CAGR owing to the high number of clinical trials relating to these therapies. Also, growing government investment and favorable regulations in China have resulted in a lucrative growth rate in the region.
