In recent past, most of the gene therapies received orphan drug designations. Orphan drugs are generally defined as those medicines with one or more indications approved under the Orphan Drug Act of 1983. The Orphan Drug Act supports the development of innovative treatments for rare disease patients. The creation of the orphan drug designation with the passage of the Orphan Drug Act in 1983 has facilitated the development and approval of drugs for rare diseases and 2017 and 2018, were marked by the highest number of orphan drug and indication approvals to date. Production of gene therapies is associated with use of high-end technologies, high research and development costs, and skilled scientists and researchers, which reflects in high prices of these therapies.
Market Dynamics
Key players in the market are dedicated to the development of gene therapies for the novel indications such as Huntington's disease for which there are no specific approved medication. For instance, uniQure N.V. is developing AMT-130, a novel Gene therapy for Huntington's disease (HD), a rare, fatal, neurodegenerative genetic disorder. AMT-130 is currently in pre-clinical trial and is expected to receive approval in near future. Furthermore, companies are developing novel gene therapies for rare diseases such as Hemophilia B and Hemophilia A, which can offer long term treatment and can replace lifelong medication for this diseases. Launches of such novel therapies in near future is expected to significantly create lucrative opportunity for growth of the market. Moreover, increasing reimbursement support as well as innovative payment options are being adopted by manufacturers such as pay for performance. However, high prices of these therapies and potential challenges in commercialization of these therapies in emerging economies such as Asia Pacific and Latin America may restrain growth of the market
