The global market for Viral Vector and Plasmid DNA was estimated to be worth US$ 667 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 4187 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 30.2% during the forecast period 2025-2031.
Viral Vector and Plasmid DNA Manufacturing refers to the upstream manufacturing processes essential for gene therapy, cell therapy, mRNA vaccines, and next-generation biologics. It includes the production of high-purity, high-expression plasmid DNA and the preparation of high-titer, functionally stable viral vectors such as adenovirus, lentivirus, and adeno-associated virus (AAV). These processes must be conducted under stringent GMP conditions, often using microbial or mammalian expression systems, and involve key steps such as fermentation, purification, quality control, and encapsulation. With the rapid advancement of biotechnology, this sector is evolving from lab-scale production to industrial-scale manufacturing, becoming a strategic focus for CDMOs and biotech firms worldwide.In this report, we only study the Viral Vector and Plasmid DNA used for research.
As the commercialization of cell and gene therapies accelerates, global demand for viral vectors and plasmid DNA continues to grow. An increasing number of CAR-T therapies, AAV-based gene therapies, and mRNA vaccine programs are advancing into clinical and commercial stages, positioning high-quality vector materials as critical bottleneck resources. Meanwhile, supportive government policies promoting the localization of gene therapy and vaccine production are driving investment in GMP-compliant vector platforms. The expanding CDMO market, stronger outsourcing trends among biotech companies, and process optimization efforts lowering production costs are jointly propelling this sector toward rapid development.
Despite strong demand, the sector faces technical and regulatory hurdles. Standardization remains limited, with cross-platform consistency in production still difficult to achieve. The bar for quality control is high, requiring strict management of viral safety, residual nucleic acids, and encapsulation efficiency. Moreover, premium GMP capacity is still dominated by a few multinational firms, while emerging players often face challenges in infrastructure investment, technical expertise, and talent acquisition. Regulatory scrutiny is also intensifying, lengthening development timelines and raising entry thresholds.
Clinical pipeline expansion and commercial product launches are the primary growth drivers for this field. In indications such as rare diseases, cancer immunotherapy, and neurological disorders, the use of AAV and lentiviral vectors is increasing significantly. At the same time, plasmid DNA is widely used as a starting template or precursor for mRNA, vaccines, nucleic acid drugs, and CRISPR-based therapies. Strategic partnerships between pharma and CDMO players are proliferating to develop modular, scalable manufacturing platforms that can support a diverse array of downstream applications.
