Humanized Mouse and Rat Model Market Dynamics
DRIVER: Rising use of humanized models in drug discovery research
Disease models reflect human physiology and are used for more accurate non-clinical studies and drug discovery, the demand for humanized mouse and rat models is expected to be high among researchers. Demand for humanized mouse models is increasing in immuno-oncology research, attributed to an increase in the number of research studies validating their efficacy. Next-generation humanized mouse models are being developed to gain a better understanding of the development of adaptive immunity and human innate. The development and use of novel humanized mouse platforms is set to accelerate oncology research. This has propelled market players to create a portfolio suitable for different research applications. For instance, THE JACKSON LABORATORY (US) offers Humanized CD34+ mice (hu-CD34) platform for in vivo analysis efficacy and safety of novel therapies that modulate the immune system. Also, genOway (France) offers established humanized models for allergy and inflammation studies mouse suitable to assess in vivo efficacy and safety of therapeutic candidates/ biologics.
RESTRAINTS: High cost of custom humanized models
Humanized models are created with the engraftment of human cells, genes, or tissues into an immunodeficient mouse or rat. It is then harvested, fragmented, and implanted again in a larger set of models treated with various drugs and drug combinations. Considering the cost of creating and maintaining these models, coupled with the requirement of expensive drugs in these models, these experiments can cost thousands of dollars, even in the case of a single patient. Humanized mouse and rat models must be housed in exceptionally protective conditions and may require a special maintenance regimen. Often, mice production is lengthy and, in some cases, restricted by patents. These are the major factors limiting the wider adoption of humanized models across the globe.
OPPORTUNITY: Growing demand for humanized rat models
The demand for humanized rat models is increasing worldwide as they are important tools for conducting preclinical research. These models are developed by the engraftment of human cells or tissues, leading to the expression of human proteins in rats. Humanized rats are increasingly being developed and used as models for biomedical research applications, such as cancer, infectious diseases, HIV/AIDS, and hepatitis. The growing need to efficiently identify the actual effects of drugs on humans as well as to study human-specific infections, therapies, and immune responses are the major factors supporting the use and development of humanized rat models. This is considered an opportunity area in the market.
Also, advancements in genetic techniques for the development of genetically modified rats have driven the adoption of rats as models for studying human diseases. The increased availability of knockout rats, mutant rats, and embryonic stem cell lines makes them the preferred animals for studying various human diseases.
CHALLENGE: Alternatives for animal testing
The development of efficient and reliable alternatives to animal testing is posing major challenges to the growth of the global humanized mouse and rat model market. The increasing pressure from animal rights activists is compelling research institutes and companies to seek options to minimize the use of animals in research activities. In December 2022, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced the exemption of animal testing in drug discovery & development. Since this law is not implemented clearly yet, the impact of it remains unclear. This law has opened new avenues for companies developing alternatives such as organoids, spheroids, and 3D cell culture, thus expecting to pose a challenge to market growth.
