DUBLIN, Nov. 9, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- The "RNA Targeting Small Molecules Therapeutics Market by Type of Target Molecule, Type of Approach, Target Indication, Target Therapeutic Area, Route of Administration, and Key Geographical Region: Industry Trends and Global Forecasts, 2021-2030" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The "RNA Targeting Small Molecules Therapeutics Market" report features an extensive study of the current landscape, offering an informed opinion on the likely adoption of RNA targeting small molecule therapeutics in the pharmaceutical industry, over the next decade. The report features an in-depth analysis, highlighting the capabilities of various stakeholders engaged in this domain.

One of the key objectives of the report was to estimate the existing size and the future opportunity associated with the RNA targeting small molecules therapeutics market, over the coming decade. Based on multiple parameters, such as target patient population, likely adoption rates and expected pricing, we have provided informed estimates on the financial evolution of the market for the period 2021-2030.

Overview

Small molecule products presently dominate the overall pharmaceutical market, representing around 80% of the total pipeline candidates. In fact, in 2020, the USFDA approved 55 drugs, of which, over 65% were small molecule therapeutics. It is worth noting that majority of these drugs were conventionally developed to target proteins.

However, reports suggest that merely 2% of the human genome is responsible for coding for proteins. Hence, the pharmaceutical industry is now focused on evaluating previously untapped targets, such as non-coding DNA and RNA; the latter molecules are expected to correspond to ~70% of the unknown portion of the human genome.

In recent past, RNA's limitless potential as a target for small molecules, against a wide range of indications (both oncological and non-oncological), has been recognized. Specifically, a variety of small molecules that affect RNA function have been discovered.

Further, many RNA riboswitch regulatory elements (capable of binding to a variety of small molecule metabolites and control gene expression) and small molecule antibiotics (having the ability to bind to ribosomal RNA and interfere with translation) have been identified. Consequently, drug developers are experimenting with RNA modification, RNA translation, RNA splicing, indirect RNA targeting (epitranscriptomics), and other ways to target RNA with small molecules.

Currently, over 100 small molecule therapeutics, targeting naive RNA, are under development. Several experiments and clinical trials focused on RNA targeting antisense oligonucleotides (many of which have received regulatory approval), as well as preclinical studies for synthetic RNAs, which can redirect cellular RNA interference (RNAi) machinery or activate CRISPR-based systems, have demonstrated strong proof of principle for RNA targeting drugs.

Moreover, a number of industry players (mostly small firms and start-ups) have developed their proprietary technologies for direct and indirect RNA targeting. Additionally, in the past five years, more than USD 800 million was invested in companies engaged in the development of RNA targeting small molecule therapeutics (primarily those developing candidates against oncological disorders).

Many big pharma players, such as Pfizer, Novartis and Takeda Pharmaceutical, have also actively supported the initiatives taken by such drug developers, by making lucrative investments. Driven by encouraging clinical trial results, strategic collaborations and initiatives undertaken to expand expanding intellectual capital, this emerging market is expected to grow at a steady pace in the foreseen future.
