The global market for mRNA therapeutics was valued at $7.71 billion in 2025 and is forecast to remain stable or slightly decline to $7.69 billion by the end of 2030, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of -0.04% during the forecast period of 2025 to 2030.

Therapies using messenger ribonucleic acid, or mRNA, have immense potential for treating chronic diseases. Vaccines incorporating mRNA provide several advantages over DNA vaccines in manufacturing, distribution and safety. There is a demand for vaccines and treatments using mRNA because of their encouraging results in human clinical trials. The market is expanding due to increased clinical trials and the global proliferation of stem cell therapies. Governments, academic institutions and biotech and pharma companies are concentrating on detecting infectious and rare diseases. The global market for mRNA therapeutics market presents a multibillion-dollar opportunity for vaccines and other therapies.

COVID-19 mRNA-based vaccines are currently available, and research continues to find new methods for preventing and treating infections and illnesses. Essential for many bodily functions, mRNA instructs the body’s cells to produce proteins. Essentially, mRNA participates in biological processes within our bodies to potentially treat diseases and stop infections.
