How much will the In-vitro Toxicology Testing industry be worth in the Future????
The global in-vitro
toxicology testing market
size is anticipated to reach USD 30.9
billion by 2027 and is projected to register a CAGR of 9.2% over the forecast period, according to a new report by
Grand View Research, Inc. The new paradigm shift in toxicity testing of animal
models toward computational methods such as silico models to interpret toxicity
pathway data, drives the demand for in-vitro toxicology testing. These methods
provide cost and time efficiency and enhance safety assessment.
Biopharmaceutical innovators are at the
forefront of the human response to the coronavirus pandemic. A significant
number of major biotech firms are in the midst of a race to investigate the
Sars-Cov-2 genome and prepare a viable vaccine for the same. As compared to the
speed of response to SARS/MERs etc, the biotech entities are investigating
SARs-Cov-2 at an unprecedented rate and a considerable amount of funds are
being put into the R&D. With multiple candidates in trial, the public and
private sectors are anticipated to work in unison for the foreseeable period,
until a vaccine is developed for Covid-19. The report will account for Covid19
as a key market contributor.
Several governments are taking
measures to minimize animal-based test models, forming conducive government
policies, and providing funds to support in-vitro models. These factors are
expected to create ample growth opportunities for the market. For instance, in
November 2020, the U.S. National Institute for Environmental Health Sciences
planned to provide funds to small companies for the development of engineered
3D culture or organotypic culture models (OCM) in-vitro systems.
Key players operating in the market include
Merck KGaA; Charles River; Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc.; Abbott; Thermo Fisher
Scientific Inc.; Catalent, Inc.; GE Healthcare; Quest Diagnostics Incorporated;
Eurofins Scientific; Laboratory Corporation of America Holdings; Evotec;
Creative Bioarray; Gentronix; BioIVT; SGS SA; and Agilent Technologies.

With advancements in high throughput
screening, biological screening, and chemical synthesis, the number of publicly
available databases containing data related to toxicity; absorption,
distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME); pharmacovigilance; and drug
screening has expanded rapidly. This has enabled scientists to access vast
information for toxicity profiling, thereby spurring revenue generation in this
market.
Further key findings from the report suggest:
·
Growing application of
3D-spheroid-cultures, particularly for nanoparticle toxicity testing, resulted
in the dominance of the cell culture technology segment in 2020
·
Omics technology is anticipated
to register lucrative growth as RNA sequencing and shotgun proteomics are
increasingly used for a more comprehensive understanding of the effects of
toxicants
·
The high usage rate of cellular
assays with advancements in cell-based technologies, including label-free
detection and high-content screening, has contributed to the dominance of the
cellular assays segment in 2020
·
Systemic toxicology emerged as
the leading application segment in 2020 as it plays a key role in risk
assessment during drug development procedures. For instance, toxicity testing
of systemic immunosuppressive drugs and systemic corticosteroids is important
during the development of drugs for ocular inflammatory disease
·
Pharmaceutical industry
dominated the in-vitro toxicology testing market in 2020 as toxicological
testing is a prerequisite step for drug development
·
Stringent government
regulations regarding animal usage for toxicity analysis in North America have
led to an increased adoption rate of in-vitro models. Hence, North America
dominated the global market in 2020
·
The Asia Pacific region is
anticipated to witness the fastest growth rate over the forecast period due to
increasing initiatives by public agencies to encourage acceptance of non-animal
test models
·
Abbott, Thermo Fisher, Agilent
Technologies, GE Healthcare, Bio-Rad, and Merck KGaA are some of the key
players operating in the market.
The
global in-vitro toxicology testing market size was estimated at USD 15.3
billion in 2020 and is expected to register a CAGR of 9.2% over the forecast
period. The evolution of 3D cell culture systems that mimic host physiology has
enabled safe testing of new compounds in the in-vitro environment, thus
limiting the use of animal testing models. This has increased the acceptance of
in-vitro toxicology and computational methods, consequently driving the market
growth.
Growing
ethical concerns regarding animal testing procedures and efforts taken by
several animal welfare organizations have paved the way for the replacement or
reduction of animal testing with in-vitro toxicology testing. For instance, in
April 2018, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) introduced a draft
policy which prescribes the use of in-vitro methods to minimize animal use in
testing chemicals causing skin inflammation or sensitization.
The
broadening horizon of high-throughput screening (HTS) techniques has encouraged
drug manufacturers to adopt these cost-effectiveand time-efficient techniques
for toxicological evaluation. For instance, in October 2020, the HTS data from
the ToxCast program, initiated by the U.S. EPA to evaluate the toxic potential
of chemicals, has been utilized for the risk assessment of food contact
materials by employing an assessment framework called RISK 21.
In-vitro
toxicology assays enable rapid assessment of safety and offer cost-saving as
well as time-saving advantages. Drug developers prefer in-vitro toxicology
screening of their candidate drugs, further driving the adoption of these
assays. Integration of systems biology, toxicogenomics, computational
toxicology, and epigenetics in in-vitro methodology also positively impact the
adoption rate.
