TechNavio recognizes the following companies as the key players in the Global MicroRNA Market: Alnylam Pharmaceuticals Inc., Asuragen Inc., Exiqon A/S, Life Technologies Corp., Mirna Therapeutics Inc., Rosetta Genomics Ltd., and Santaris Pharma A/S.
Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio’s team said: “A biomarker is a substance or a molecular or cellular process or event that indicates a biological condition. Several research studies have confirmed that microRNAs have immense potential as biomarkers for a range of diseases, from cancer to cardiovascular diseases. An increasing number of vendors in the market are focusing on the discovery of microRNA biomarkers for diseases that do not as yet have defined microRNA biomarkers. For instance, Biogen Idec Inc., a US-based biotechnology company focusing on the development of drugs for the Healthcare sector, and Regulus Therapeutics Inc., a US-based microRNA therapeutics company, have collaborated in their efforts to discover and develop microRNA biomarkers for multiple sclerosis. Thus, the Global MicroRNA market is witnessing the increasing use of microRNAs as biomarkers.”
According to the report, one of the most important drivers is the increasing prevalence of diseases such as cancer, which has led to an increase in demand for microRNA-based diagnostic tests.
Further, the report states that one of the major challenges in the market is the stringent regulations imposed by the regulatory bodies. Complying with such regulations and obtaining approvals from regulatory authorities is a major challenge for the vendors in this market.
