Market Report Description

The Global Cell-based Assays Market size is expected to reach $24.9 billion by 2028, rising at a market growth of 8.2% CAGR during the forecast period.

Any type of experiment that is conducted inside a living cell is considered to be a cell-based assay. As a result of the breadth of this concept, there are a number of distinct cell-based tests. Assays that are performed on living cells can reveal information on a cell's viability, cytotoxicity, proliferation, senescence, as well as the death rate. These assays are based on reporter gene assays that have a high sensitivity due to the signal amplification that occurs during cell-signaling cascades.

Because of this, these assays are suitable for conducting an investigation of cell-signaling cascades. High-throughput screening, or HTS, formats typically make use of cell-based assays. Research and development expenditures have been boosted by a number of governmental and private organizations in an effort to find safer and more effective drugs.

In addition, developments in the technology of cell-based assays have made it possible for researchers to apply this method for drug discovery as well as investigations of toxicology. Cell culture processes, in which living cells are generated in vitro and utilized as model systems for analyzing the physiology and biochemistry of both healthy and diseased cells, serve as the foundation for the cell-based assay methodology, which is based on the idea of the cell-based assay.

In a regulatory environment, cell-based assays are frequently used for cytotoxicity screening, to evaluate the biological activity (potency) of drug substance and drug product, to determine the method of action, early-stage proof of primary studies, and in immunogenicity experiments to determine if antibodies produced by the person are neutralizing the drug product.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

The COVID-19 pandemic caused major clinical trials and the research processes involved in the creation of new drugs to be interrupted. Patients are now only treated symptomatically despite the fact that a number of vaccines or antiviral medications for COVID-19 have either been authorized or are currently in the development stage. When developing vaccines as well as treatments, it is necessary to evaluate the antibodies produced to determine the functional efficacy of the antibodies to inhibit the target virus. In order to decrease the amount of time required for these assays while also increasing their throughput, cell-based assays are used. Because of this, there has been a major rise in the demand for cell-based tests, which can give an early indication of the hazardous properties possessed by potential drug candidates.

Market Growth Factors

An increasing number of applications of cell-based assays within drug discovery applications

In the process of developing new drugs, cell-based assays are crucial components. In contrast to in vitro biochemical tests, cell-based assays offer a number of beneficial features. In contrast to biochemical assays, they provide responses that are tissue-specific and consistent while taking place in a microenvironment that is biologically relevant. A significant aspect that restricts the use of biochemical assays is the impossibility of preparing or purifying each and every target for biochemical measurement. This is one of the factors that contribute to the limitations of the applications of biochemical assays.

Rising adoption of novel and advanced approaches throughout developing economies

One of the major factors that are expediting the growth of the market is the significant number of developing countries all over the world. The low cost of labor and raw materials, the increased risk of infections, the growth in the number of research activities, and the technological advancements throughout the end-use sectors for cell-based assays in these emerging countries are anticipated to provide significant growth prospects for several major market players operating in the cell-based assays market.

Market Restraining Factors

High cost of maintenance and ownership of equipment

The incorporation of high-throughput screening (HTS) along with high-content screening (HCS) methods has expanded the reliability of cell-based assays. However, these innovations have significantly increased the price of instruments and devices that are required to conduct experiments. In addition, the time and expense associated with each HTS method are directly related to the complexity of the target molecule; hence, the greater the complexity, the larger the cost.

Application Outlook
