Oncolytic virotherapy is a form of cancer treatment that uses viruses to selectively infect, replicate within, and destroy cancer cells while sparing normal cells. Oncolytic viruses are typically engineered to target and replicate in tumor cells, leading to their destruction through direct lysis, induction of apoptosis, or through stimulating the immune system's anti-tumor response.

Based on virus type, the oncolytic virotherapy market is segmented into genetically engineered oncolytic viruses and oncolytic wild-type viruses. The genetically engineered oncolytic viruses segment has been further sub-segmented into adenovirus, herpes simplex virus, vaccinia virus. similarly, the oncolytic wild-type viruses segment has been further sub-segmented into reovirus, vesicular stomatitis virus, newcastle disease virus. The genetically engineered oncolytic viruses segment held the majority of market share in 2023 and is anticipated to grow at CAGR of 27.3% over the coming years.

  • The leading share of genetically engineered oncolytic viruses can be attributed to their enhanced specificity and targeting capabilities. Genetically engineered viruses such as adenovirus and herpes simplex virus can be designed to target and infect cancer cells specifically, without impacting healthy cells. Owing to their target specificity, majority of researchers are focusing towards using genetically engineered oncolytic viruses, which is contributing towards the growth of the segment.
  • Moreover, genetic engineered oncolytic viruses can be modified through incorporating additional therapeutic genes into the virus, enhancing its overall anti-cancer activity. As a result, they offer improved efficacy and efficient treatment outcomes. These benefits are fueling the adoption of genetic engineered oncolytic viruses across in market.

Based on application, the oncolytic virotherapy market is classified into solid tumors and melanoma. Solid tumors are further segmented into breast cancer, prostate cancer, lung cancer, and glioblastoma. Similarly, melanoma is further segmented into leukemia, lymphoma, myeloma, and hematological malignancies. The solid tumors segment dominated the market with a revenue of about USD 12.1 million in 2023.

  • Leading share of solid tumor segment can be attributed to high prevalence of breast, prostate, and lung cancer. For instance, according to the World Health Organization, in 2022, about 2.3 million women were diagnosed with breast cancer. The high prevalence of breast cancer is driving the demand for oncolytic virotherapy in solid tumor segment, which is driving the overall growth of the segment.
  • Furthermore, once the chemotherapy and surgery are unsuccessful, there are limited treatment options for patients with solid tumors. This has also propelled the investments for developing new cancer therapies such as oncolytic virotherapies, thereby driving the revenue growth in the segment.
