GLOBAL DNA DAMAGE RESPONSE MARKET: GROWTH AND TRENDS
The DNA damage response (DDR) consists of a coordinated network of pathways that not only facilitate the repair of DNA lesions but also activate cell cycle checkpoints. This leads to cell cycle arrest at critical stages in order to maintain the overall genomic integrity. Notably, if the damage is irreparable, this intricate system ensures that cells either repair their genetic material before undergoing division or facilitate programmed cell death to prevent the propagation of mutations. Further, its high specificity and sensitivity to conventional therapies, and low off-target toxicity have made DDR a promising therapeutic target for a broad range of clinical conditions, including both oncological and non-oncological diseases. Consequently, researchers worldwide are developing DDR inhibitors to counter DDR-mediated resistance to DNA-damaging anticancer therapies and to exploit DDR dysfunction in cancer by targeting alternative pathways.

It is worth mentioning that four poly-ADP ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitor drugs, which target the DNA damage repair process, are currently approved for advanced-stage cancer treatment. Additionally, drug developers worldwide are investigating other molecular targets within the DNA damage response pathway, including ATM, ATR, CHK1, and WEE1.
