There are over 7,000 genetic diseases that could potentially be cured using gene therapy. Rare metabolic diseases, autoimmune disorders, cardiovascular disease and cancers are some of the top disease classes that can be addressed with gene therapies. With over 1,000 clinical trials involving gene therapies or oligonucleotides currently in various stages, and 11 gene therapy drugs already on the market, it is clear the potential benefit to human health is profound.
This new generation of therapeutic modalities presents unprecedented technological challenges in bringing therapies to patients. These challenges have affected both the speed and ultimate cost of bringing new therapies to market, with many gene therapeutics now categorized as some of the most expensive medications currently in existence. Ultimately, there is a lack of sufficient tools as we seek faster and more accurate methods for characterizing these new classes of drugs.
Although faced with many unique challenges and still at its very early stages, the global gene therapy market is growing rapidly. As of 2019, the size of this market is estimated to be more than $1 billion, and it is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 32%. This growth is primarily driven by an increase in the number of clinical trials, the amount of government and private funding and the number of partnerships between small biotech and large pharmaceutical companies.
This type of growth brings many opportunities, and to take advantage of them, it is crucial that you are prepared with solutions to the challenges ahead. To help you succeed, we invite you to download a copy of the gene therapy and oligonucleotide compendium. This compendium was created with you in mind, and it aims to provide you with precision analytics that will help bring your therapies to market faster.

As regulatory scrutiny increases and detection requirements tighten, laboratories are facing a new question: How can TFA be measured reliably, sensitively, and at scale?
Glycosylation is one of the more structurally diverse and biologically impactful PTMs in protein therapeutics. Both N‑linked and O‑linked glycans influence protein folding, stability, and biological activity. Given these effects on biotherapeutics, glycosylation is a closely monitored critical quality attribute (CQA). Comprehensive and site‑specific characterization of glycosylation is essential for informed decision‑making throughout drug discovery and development.
Warranty expiration is more than an administrative milestone—it is a transition point that can significantly impact instrument uptime, laboratory productivity, operating budgets, and scientific outcomes.
