Cell and gene therapy is a branch of advanced medicine that involves modifying or using living cells and genetic material to treat, prevent, or potentially cure diseases. Cell therapy works by introducing healthy or engineered cells into a patient to replace or repair damaged tissues, while gene therapy involves altering, replacing, or regulating genes within a patient's cells to correct genetic disorders or modify disease pathways. The primary purpose of cell and gene therapy is to address the root cause of diseases rather than just managing symptoms.
The cell and gene therapy market consist of sales by entities (organizations, sole traders and partnerships) of cell and gene therapy products that are used by healthcare providers, including hospitals and specialty care centers, for patients with complex, chronic, or life-threatening conditions such as cancers, inherited genetic disorders, and degenerative diseases. The therapies are typically administered in controlled clinical settings by trained medical specialists during specific treatment episodes when conventional treatments have proven ineffective or when a curative approach is medically indicated.
The global cell and gene therapy market was valued at $5,556.5 million in 2020 which grew till 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of more than 23.00%.
Shift Toward Personalized And Precision Medicine
The shift toward personalized and precision medicine supported the growth of the cell and gene therapy market in the historic period. Increasing focus on therapies tailored to individual genetic profiles and disease characteristics drove demand for highly targeted and effective solutions. Cell and gene therapies align closely with this paradigm, as they are designed to address diseases at the genetic or cellular level, improving treatment outcomes and minimizing adverse effects. Advances in genomic sequencing, biomarker identification and companion diagnostics further enabled personalized treatment strategies. For instance, in February 2024, according to the Personalized Medicine Coalition, a US-based non-profit organization, the FDA granted approval for 16 personalized therapies in 2023 aimed at treating rare diseases, marking a rise from the six such treatments approved in 2022. Therefore, the shift toward personalized and precision medicine drove the growth of the cell and gene therapy market.
Commercialization Of Allogeneic Cell Therapy For Chronic Osteoarthritis Treatment
Companies operating in the cell and gene therapy market are focusing on commercializing clinically validated, allogeneic cell therapies through strategic partnerships to deliver scalable, disease-modifying treatments for high-prevalence chronic conditions. For instance, in December 2025, Cipla Limited, an India-based pharmaceutical company, partnered with Stempeutics Research, an India-based life science company to launch Ciplostem, an allogeneic mesenchymal stromal cell therapy for Grade II and III knee osteoarthritis, approved by India's drug regulator. The single-dose intra-articular treatment uses bone-marrow-derived MSCs combined with hyaluronic acid to reduce inflammation, relieve pain and preserve cartilage. Designed as a disease-modifying therapy, Ciplostem addresses limitations of conventional symptomatic treatments. Backed by Phase 3 clinical evidence, the launch marks Cipla's entry into orthobiologics and expands access to regenerative, cell-based therapies for millions of osteoarthritis patients in India.
The global cell and gene therapy market is highly concentrated, with large players operating in the market. The top 10 competitors in the market made up 66.6% of the total market in 2024.
