Short Description Global Natural Killer (NK) Cell Therapeutics Market, By Therapeutics (NK Cell Therapies, NK Cell Directed Antibodies), Approaches (Antibody-Dependent Cell-Mediated Cytotoxicity (ADCC), Bispecific Antibodies), Application (Cancer, Acute Infectious Diseases, Gastrointestinal Diseases, Others), End User (Research & Academic Institutes, Hospitals, Specialty Clinics), Distribution Channel (Hospital Pharmacies, Direct Tender, Others), Country (U.S., Canada, Mexico, Germany, France, Italy, U.K., Spain, Netherlands, Russia, Switzerland, Turkey, Austria, Norway, Hungary, Lithuania, Ireland, Poland, Luxembourg, Rest of Europe, Japan, China, Australia, South Korea, India, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Philippines, Vietnam, rest of Asia-Pacific, Brazil, Argentina, Peru, rest of South America, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, UAE, Israel, Kuwait, Egypt and rest of Middle East and Africa) Industry Trends and Forecast to 2029 Market Definition: Natural killer (NK) cells are the large granular lymphocytes which have the ability to quickly respond to a pathological challenge. Natural killer cells are the important component of innate immune system and play an important role in generating immune response against the malignancies and infectious diseases caused by viral pathogens. Natural killer (NK) cells have been recognized to induce direct killing of targeted cells involving cancer cells. These have the ability to recognize the multitude of infected cells without being dependent on a single antigen expressing cells. NK cells secrete cytokines and chemokines which recruit other immune cells such as T cells and B cells which enhances the immune response against the tumor cells. As Natural killer (NK) cells do not express T cell receptors, they induce low risk of graft-versus-host disease. The effectiveness of NK cells therapies can be also be enhanced by genetically modified the NK cells so as to obtain highly specific and persistent cell lines. NK cell therapies can also be used with mono-clonal antibodies and T-cell therapies which again enhances its anti-tumor activity. Increase in usage of natural killer cells for the treatment of cancer and infectious disease is a key factor responsible for market growth. Along with this rise in patients population with chronic disease and rise in the awareness about immunotherapies boosting the market growth. Market Segmentation: Natural killer (NK) cell therapeutics market is categorized into four notable segments which are based on therapeutics, approaches, application, end user, and distribution channel. On the basis of therapeutics, the natural killer (NK) cell therapeutics market is segmented into NK cell therapies and NK cell directed antibodies On the basis of approaches, the natural killer (NK) cell therapeutics market is segmented into antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) and bispecific antibodies. On the basis of application, the natural killer (NK) cell therapeutics market is segmented into cancer, acute infectious diseases, gastrointestinal diseases and others. Cancer is further sub-segmented into solid tumors, hematologic malignancies and others. Hematologic malignancies are further sub-segmented into multiple myeloma, acute myeloid leukemia (AML), lymphoma and others. On the basis of end user, the natural killer (NK) cell therapeutics market is segmented into hospitals, specialty clinics, and research & academic institutes On the basis of distribution channel, the natural killer (NK) cell therapeutics market is segmented into hospital pharmacies, direct tender, others. Market Players The key market players for natural killer (NK) cell therapeutics market are listed below: Merck KGaA Bristol-Myers Squibb Company Glycostem Kiadis Pharma Cytovia Therapeutics Nkarta, Inc.
