GLOBAL FC FUSION PROTEIN MARKET: GROWTH AND TRENDS
Fc fusion protein therapies have garnered noteworthy attention from stakeholders, thus becoming a prominent class of therapeutics. This is a result of the approval of Enbrel® (a CD4-Fc fusion protein for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis) in 1998. Further, till date Over 110 Fc fusion protein product candidates are currently marketed / under development. for a range of disease indications. These therapies combine the beneficial pharmacological properties of biologically active ligands with the distinct properties of the crystallizable fragment (Fc) domain of immunoglobulin G (IgG). Additionally, owing to their ability to sustain the serum half-life of biologically active proteins, these disease-modifying therapies are employed across several therapeutic domains. These encompass oncological, neurological, respiratory, and rare genetic disorders.At present, many pharmaceutical companies are working on developing new Fc fusion treatments that offer enhanced effectiveness. The research efforts of developers in this field focus on improving the stability and solubility of the active pharmacological ingredient, with an aim to increase the therapeutic efficacy. As a result, the Fc fusion therapies market is anticipated to experience robust growth throughout the forecast period.
