Genomics Market Dynamics
DRIVER: Increased government funding to support genomics project
In recent years, governments in various countries have made significant investments in the field of genomics. These government investments have played a major role in the development of new technologies. Mentioned below are some recent examples:
- In December 2022, the UK government announced an investment of USD 190 million (EU 175 million) for genomics research. This research is mainly focused on providing genomic-based diagnosis and treatment options for patients suffering from cancer and children born with treatable rare genetic diseases. The UK government’s initiative “Life Sciences Vision,” launched in 2021, commits to positioning the UK as a global leader in function Genomics.
- In September 2022, the Australian government’s Department of Health announced an investment of USD 500 million over 10 years in genomics research under the Medical Research Future Fund (MRFF). Through this investment, the government plans to support researchers for genomics in medicine (testing, diagnosis, and treatment) and make a positive impact on the lives of more than 200,000 Australians.
- In September 2022, the CDC announced funding of USD 90 million for the Pathogen Genomics Centers of Excellence (PGCoE) network, which will foster and develop pathogen genomics, molecular epidemiology, and bioinformatics in the region.
These funding initiatives are expected to increase the usage of genomics products, which will drive overall market growth.
OPPORTUNITY: Use of genomics in specialized/personalized medicine
Growth in the personalized medicine market is set to offer an array of opportunities for players operating in the market. Various pharmaceutical companies are increasingly investing in personalized medicine research. Personalized medicine enables medical practitioners to identify the exact needs of a patient and then prescribe medicines and treatments accordingly. This approach guarantees better care outcomes. Moreover, it is expected that advancements in the field of gene therapy have the potential to replace traditional drugs and surgeries by enabling doctors to treat a disorder by inserting a gene into a patient’s cell.
In September 2022, QIAGEN (Germany) and Neuron23 Inc. (US), an early-stage biotechnology company engaged in developing precision medicine for genetically defined neurological and immunological diseases, entered into an agreement to develop a companion diagnostic for Neuron23’s brain penetrant leucine-rich repeat kinase (LRRK2) inhibitor for Parkinson’s disease. In May 2022, Illumina (US) announced a long-term strategic partnership with Janssen to accelerate the development of precision medicine. Through this partnership, Illumina will support drug discovery with whole-genome sequencing (WGS) and other multi-omic methodologies using Illumina Lab Services. Such developments are indicative of the significant opportunities related to the use of NGS in precision medicine and molecular diagnostics.
CHALLENGE: Secured storage of large volume of sequenced data
The market has witnessed substantial growth in the past few years as a result of scientific breakthroughs. The market is mainly driven by falling prices of sequencing technologies and initiatives by governments in various countries focusing on the use of genomics in personalized medicine. These factors are increasing the adoption of various genomic tests for diagnosis, owing to which a large amount of data is generated.
The human genome consists of approximately 3 billion DNA nucleotides, and it is estimated that approximately 100 GB of data is stored in all the genomes of an individual. According to Nature Magazine, ~30,000 genomes have been sequenced, representing ~3 PB (petabytes) of data. Cloud computing is the most common method of storing this large volume of data and provides access to scientists, clinicians, and consumers across various geographies. However, the security of genetic data collected and stored is a major concern.
Genomics companies are increasingly focusing on reducing the complexity of data interpretation and management. In May 2020, QIAGEN N.V. (Netherlands) introduced a new QCI Interpret One software solution. It joins the QIAGEN Clinical Insights (QCI) portfolio, which has been used to analyze and interpret next-generation sequencing (NGS) data from 1.6 million clinical cases to date. QCI Interpret One enables molecular pathologists to more rapidly and confidently deliver clinically relevant reports designed to improve patient outcomes based on complex genomic testing data. Also, issues regarding storage have increased; it is estimated that over 100 million genomes will have been sequenced by 2025 as part of genomic projects. However, just one human genome sequence produces approximately 200 gigabytes of raw data, and if the sequencing of 100 million genomes by 2025 is to be done, then there will be over 20 billion gigabytes of raw data that is accumulated. Genomics data analysis also needs to be carried out, which generates an additional 100 gigabytes of data per genome and requires massive computing power, which cannot be feasible economically for many biopharmaceutical companies and research institutes. This large-scale generation of data and data storage may become a challenge in the future.
