Global Antibody Drug Conjugates Market: Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2023-2028

The global antibody drug conjugates market size reached US$ 6.3 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, the market is expected to reach US$ 22.4 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 23.54% during 2022-2028.

Antibody drug conjugates (ADCs) are highly potent biological drugs comprising tumor-targeting antibodies, which are chemically attached to a cytotoxic effector molecule. They deliver cytotoxic anticancer agents to affected cells by connecting them to monoclonal antibodies (mAb) through biodegradable linkers and allowing sensitive bifurcation between healthy and diseased tissues. They assist in increasing the cell-killing potential of mAb, enhancing drug tolerability, and limiting systematic exposure compared to standard chemotherapy bioactive compounds. At present, they are administered intravenously into the bloodstream to avoid gastric acid and proteolytic enzyme degradation of the mAb.

Antibody Drug Conjugates Market Trends

Due to sedentary lifestyles and the rising number of individuals who smoke and drink regularly, there is an increase in the prevalence of cancer around the world. This, in confluence with the escalating demand for cost-effective and successful cancer treatments, represents one of the key factors bolstering the growth of the market. Apart from this, the existing linkers often release payloads nonspecifically and lead to off-target toxicity, which severely affects the development of ADCs. As a result, leading players are continuously funding their research and development (R&D) projects to optimize the existing chemical triggers and develop novel chemical triggers to generate highly selective linkers. They are also coming up with novel linker-antibody attachments to produce stable and homogenous ADCs and additional linker-payload attachments to allow the expansion of payloads. Moreover, they are focusing on improving the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion, which is creating a favorable market outlook. Other major factors, including considerably improving healthcare infrastructure, increasing awareness about therapies available for cancer treatments, and the introduction of cleavable linker technology, are anticipated to propel the market growth.
