COVID-19 Diagnostics (PCR Testing, Antibody Testing) and Therapy (Immunotherapy, Vaccines, Antiviral, Cell-based, Plasma therapy) Market Opportunity Assessment and Global Forecast to 2025
The healthcare systems have been struggling to manage the COVID-19 patient population globally and hence the medical researchers are racing to find a solution to the pandemic. According to this latest publication from Meticulous Research?, the leading areas of research include antibodies, protein-based vaccines, antiviral, drug repurposes, RNA-based vaccines, non-replicating viral vectors, and cell-based therapies. While more than 50% of the therapies being developed are in preclinical stage, government initiatives, such as Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) by FDA, is expected to accelerate the research and development (R&D) process.

Based on healthcare options, the COVID-19 impact assessment is analyzed into diagnostics and treatments areas. The market opportunity of these products is estimated to reach USD 13.9 billion in 2025. The diagnostics segment is further divided into PCR-based testing and antibody testing. The treatment area is segmented into vaccines, immunotherapies, anti-virals, cell-based therapies, and other therapies. Vaccines and anti-virals are the most explored treatment options currently being investigated by researchers worldwide.

Geographically, North America has been the most affected region, primarily attributed to the U.S. being the most affected country having most number of confirmed cases as well as deaths, globally. Other most affected nations include the U.K., Spain, France, Italy, Brazil, Germany, and India among others. Further, almost all the affected nations have experienced rapid economic decline leading GDP decline, increase in unemployment rates, and increase in the inflation rates. To overcome the situation, governments have imposed restriction on people movement as well as invested resources towards dealing with crisis and supporting all research and medical efforts towards developing a treatment option. The U.S., Canada, the U.K., Germany, China, and India are some of the key nations leading the research and production efforts geared towards developing COVID-19 medication.

Some of the key players engaged in COVID-19 diagnostics and treatment development include Roche Holding AG (Switzerland), Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc. (U.S.), Abbott Laboratories (U.S.), Becton, Dickinson and Company (U.S.), AbbVie Corporation (U.S.), Gilead Sciences, Inc. (U.S.), Eli Lilly and Company (U.S.), Moderna, Inc. (U.S.), Novavax, Inc. (U.S.), Medicago, Inc. (U.S.), Inovio Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (U.S.), GlaxoSmithKline (U.K.), Sanofi S.A. (France), Johnson & Johnson (U.S.), Sorrento Therapeutics, Inc. (U.S.), AstraZeneca Plc (U.K.), Pfizer, Inc. (U.S.), CTI Biopharma Corporation (U.S.), OncoImmune, Inc. (U.S.), Athersys, Inc. (U.S.), Celularity, Inc. (U.S.), Pluristem Therapeutics (Israel), and Takeda Pharmaceuticals Company Ltd (Japan), among others.
