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.

In this interview, Andy Wilcox, Senior Market Development Manager, Aftermarket and Software, speaks with Susanna Baqué, Senior Director of Global Customer Experience, about how SCIEX Now gives customers one connected digital workspace to manage instruments, reduce time spent searching for information, resolve issues faster and keep their laboratory running more efficiently and with greater confidence.
As therapeutic pipelines continue to diversify, bioanalysis is being asked to do more than ever before. From small molecules to complex biologics, today’s scientists must generate high‑quality, reliable data across a growing range of molecule types and workflows, often under increasing time pressure.
Regulated laboratories are evolving faster than ever. New analytical modalities, higher sample throughput, increasing regulatory scrutiny, and leaner teams are reshaping how work gets done. At the same time, expectations for data integrity, standardization, and operational efficiency continue to increase complexity and/or scope. In this environment, LC-MS software is no longer simply an instrument control platform—it has become a critical part of a laboratory’s quality management system. The question is no longer whether your lab has changed, but whether your software has evolved to support the way regulated labs operate today, and if they are ready and able to meet the demands, they will face tomorrow.
