Automation of Cell and Gene Therapy Manufacturing Services Boosts Middle East & Africa Cell and Gene Therapy Market
Incorporating automation in cell and gene therapy manufacturing can lead to a reduced risk of contamination, improved consistency, and decreased cost of production. Lonza Cocoon and the CliniMACS Prodigy system from Miltenyi are a few of the devices designed to boost the automation of most sequential unit operations for a CAR-T process within a single system. With the rise in demand for cell and gene therapies, the production of cell and gene therapy products has shifted from a small-volume process to a large-volume process worldwide. In addition to the increasing research activities, the evolution of cell and gene therapy from an academic and clinical setting to commercialization has propelled the demand for automation in commercial manufacturing. Further, government agencies are adopting automation in the manufacturing of cell therapies to increase national production capabilities. Thus, automation of cell and gene therapy manufacturing services is expected to bring new trends in the Middle East & Africa cell and gene therapy market in the coming years.
Middle East & Africa Cell and Gene Therapy Market Overview
South Africa is a developing nation. The proper implementation of a cell therapy program in South Africa can result in the reduction of the high disease burden in the country; however, the cost of cell and gene therapy restricts South African patients' access to these therapies. Despite being technologically more advanced than other African nations, gene therapy manufacturing is still not widely available in South Africa. The most problematic aspects are the lack of funding, human resources, and awareness about therapy. Although the South African government has made efforts to support the biotechnology industry, cell therapy has not received enough attention. Moreover, the scientific and medical community is highly innovative and focused on cell and gene therapy.
