Adeno-associated Virus (AAV) Vector-based Generket size to Reach USD 32.96 Bn by 2034 Therapy Ma

Vantage Market Research releases its latest comprehensive report on the ‘Adeno-Associated Virus (AAV) Vector-Based Gene Therapy Market’ with a forecast period of 2025-2034. In 2023, the global Adeno-Associated Virus (AAV) vector-based gene therapy market size was USD 5.1 billion, and is calculated at USD 6.02 billion in 2024. The Adeno-Associated Virus (AAV) vector-based gene therapy market is projected to reach USD 32.96  billion in 2034, and register a revenue CAGR of 18.2% over the forecast period (2025-2034).

Market Overview:

The global Adeno-Associated Virus (AAV) vector-based gene therapy market is expected to continue to register a robust revenue growth rate over the forecast period, supported to a major extent by key factors such as increasing prevalence of genetic and rare diseases, advances in biotechnology, and rising investment in Research and Development (R&D) and healthcare infrastructure worldwide. Conditions such as Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD), Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA), and hemophilia are now actively targeted by AAV-based therapies, which provide long-term solutions with minimized side effects compared to conventional treatments. Also, continued advancements in AAV vector technology have led to more effective and precisely targeted gene therapies, contributing to higher success rates in clinical trials. 

Moreover, favorable regulatory environments, particularly in North America and Europe, are accelerating approvals for gene therapies and research into Parkinson’s disease (PD) and Alzheimer’s disease (AD), metabolic disorders such as lysosomal storage disorders, and even cancers. Supportive frameworks by agencies like the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Medicines Agency (EMA) are speeding-up pathways for new treatments, thereby enhancing the ability of pharmaceutical companies to launch innovative solutions. In addition, strategic partnerships and mergers between biopharmaceutical companies, research institutions, and technology providers are driving rapid development and commercialization in the AAV gene therapy landscape.

AAV vector-based gene therapy remains highly attractive due to its low immunogenicity, high efficiency, and potential for a one-time administration with sustained effects. Applications for these therapies extend beyond genetic and rare diseases to include promising uses in cardiovascular and metabolic conditions, further expanding market potential. Recent trends indicate a surge in investment across emerging markets such as the Asia Pacific, strengthening access to advanced treatments globally. Leading companies like Pfizer and Sarepta Therapeutics continue to develop and expand product pipelines, supporting the growth of AAV-based therapies and catering to increasing demand in the market.
