Increasing Government Efforts to Understand Genome of COVID-19 to Boost Market Growth


The Covid-19 pandemic has completely changed the healthcare industry as a whole, with the tremors of the pandemic being felt across individual healthcare sectors. Both, the government and private pharmaceutical as well as biotechnological companies have accelerated their research activities and increased their investments to develop an efficient vaccine or novel treatment for COVID-19. Monitoring the genome sequence of coronavirus can help track the manner of spread of infection and its impact on the human genome. This information can then be used to develop effective treatment of the infection. Researchers are using the virus genome data to track the origin of COVID-19 infection in their countries and onset of community transmission. For example, in September 2020, with many African countries now expanding COVID-19 testing, the WHO launched a network of laboratories in collaboration with the Africa Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (Africa CDC) to highlight genome sequencing of the SARS-CoV-2, the pathogen responsible for COVID-19, in Africa.


Effort to study the genetic structure of coronavirus has increased drastically. Several countries including China, the U.S., Vietnam, and Nepal are sharing the whole genome sequence data isolated from the patients. This will help researchers across the world in study of several aspects of the coronavirus including its origin and drug development. In April 2020, Genome Canada announced the launch of the Canadian COVID Genomics Network (CanCOGeN), an initiative backed with USD 40 million funding. The initiative includes partnership between Genome Canada and six regional Genome Centers, genome sequencing centers through CGEn, national and provincial public health labs, universities, hospitals, and the private sector, for scaling up existing genome-based COVID-19 research in Canada and globally.


In addition to this, the increasing research activities on COVID-19 are offering several opportunities for several start-ups and established businesses. Increased government funding and recent surge in research activities will create a massive demand for sequencing products, software and services. For instance, deCODE genetics is conducting the demonic analysis of coronavirus and has also partnered with the Government of Iceland to sequence the genomes of samples isolated from COVID-19 patients. Similarly, HaystackAnalytics, a start-up company, is using genomics to study the transmission of the virus and help the government of India. This is anticipated to surge the market growth in the coming years.

Technological Advancements in the Field of Genomics to Advance Market Growth


The massive potential held by genome sequencing has resulted in an influx of start-ups in recent years. Owing to the massive potential held by genome sequencing, several companies have started providing sequencing services for a variety of applications such as nutrition, ancestry, genetic diseases, and others. 23andMe is one such company which has registered notable growth. Increasing funding in start-up businesses is expected to emerge in favor of market growth. For example, in August 2020, consumer genomic company Ancestry, planned to launch a new product which features next-generation sequencing. The new product aims to help customers get insights into their health and risk factors, called as Ancestry Health, which is powered by Next Generation Sequencing (NGS), the tool can screen for genes associated with breast cancer, heart disease, colon cancer and blood disorders.  


GENOMICS MARKET GROWTH FACTORS


Rising Number of Government-aided Genome Projects to Aid Growth


One of the prominent factors that have contributed to the growth of the market is the increasing number of government-funded genome projects. Genomic study is an essential tool that can aid the development of effective therapies; a primary factor why several government organizations are investing in genome projects. For instance, Genomics England collaborated with the NHS and started the Genomic Medicine Service, which incorporated whole genome sequencing into routine medical care. Similarly, there are several projects such as The Saudi Human Genome Program, Personalized Medicine Program, France Génomique, and others. For example, as per Press Information Bureau, March 2020, Department of Biotechnology (DBT) had sanctioned a project, cataloguing the Genetic Variation in Indians for a three-year period to 20 institutions from varied disciplines across the country. The proposed target of this project for a total of 10,000 individuals signifying the country’s diverse population in three years. The data generated from whole genome sequencing can accelerate forthcoming human genetics research in the country with better precision, and to design a genome wide association array for the Indian population to develop precision healthcare and diagnostics for major diseases at reasonable costs. This will emerge in favor of market growth during the forecast period.


New Products and Innovative Services to Favor Adoption of Genomic Sequencing


The shift towards personalized medicines and decreasing costs of sequencing owing to the introduction of NGS technology, have yielded several new products and services. The market is gradually becoming more competitive with new players entering the market, and hence the companies are introducing advanced products and services to consolidate their position. For instance, in July 2020, Illumina announced the launch of e TruSight Software Suite and provided ready-to use infrastructure for whole genome sequencing that can be used to identify genetic diseases. This is anticipated to aid the market growth.


RESTRAINING FACTORS


Lack of Trained Technicians Pose a Major Hindrance to Market Growth


Despite the huge potential, shortage of trained technicians is a significant factor which is restricting the growth of the market in the developing countries. Many of the emerging nations either have less number of technicians or they lack the skill set required for using sophisticated sequencers. Apart from this, the high cost of instruments is another factor restricting market expansion.


Additionally, the stringent regulatory framework to develop new products is limiting the market growth. With the continuous rise in COVID-19 infections globally, the demand for improved, safer, and earlier detection instruments to deliver successful treatment to patients has created havoc in the market, however, manufacturers have to pass stringent regulatory restrictions to launch new products. For example, every country has its own regulatory authority applying different regulations and guidelines for manufacturers. To make sure the safety of products, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the U.S Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and other regulatory bodies have restructured their guidelines.
