The rising incidence of cancer cases is projected to create a high demand for novel therapeutic drugs that might prove effective for cancer treatment. As the number of cancer cases rises, there is a greater demand for effective treatment options. Also, cancer gene therapy offers a promising approach by targeting the underlying genetic mechanisms driving cancer or oncology development, thereby providing patients with additional therapeutic options. For instance, in September 2022, the Hadassah Cancer Research Institute (HCRI) announced CancerRNA, a worldwide initiative aimed at advancing the development and utilization of RNA-based immunotherapy to harness anti-cancer immune responses more effectively. Such initiatives associated with cancer therapy is expected to impel the market growth.
