Drivers: Rising demand for personalized medicine
Proteomics plays an important role in personalized medicine by providing insights at the molecular level. The results make it possible to implement targeted therapies to support individualized medicine through biomarker discovery, identification of drug targets, and follow-up of therapy responses. During the last decade, there has been an increased usage of personalized medicines. In 2021, the FDA’s Centre for Drug Evaluation and Research approved 50 novel molecular entities, all but 2 of which were therapeutic goods. Similarly, in 2022, the US FDA approved around 37 NMEs.
Restraints: High cost of instruments
One of the major factors limiting the growth of the proteomics market is the requirement of high investments initially. These are highly sophisticated, fully automated systems, with a relatively high capital expenditure towards procurement, installation, and integration into existing lines of production. This can be very expensive, owing to which raising the stake is quite hard for small and medium-sized enterprises, which form a large part of the manufacturing industry. Although these companies play an important role in product quality and regulatory compliance, steep costs may deter them from adopting essential instruments. Mass spectrometers and chromatography systems are examples of advanced proteomic tools, but they come at a cost. For example, state-of-the-art mass spectrometers run into several hundred thousand dollars—thus posing a considerable expense for research institutions and biotech companies. For example, only reagents for running a single mass spectrometry analysis can be in the range of USD 100–300. The cost in terms of specialists can also run into thousands of dollars a year for institutions if hiring and training are to be done. For small research labs or academic institutions, such expenses are unaffordable.
Opportunities: Advancements in bioinformatics
Advancements in bioinformatics are a key factor driving growth in the proteomics market. Some major technological advancements are software tools for data analysis and interpretation, such as MaxQuant and Proteome Discoverer, that enhance accuracy and speed in identifying and quantifying proteins from mass spectrometry data. Such tools help in the fast, parallel analysis of comprehensive datasets and in predicting the subtle interactions of proteomes and pathways. Technologies in bioinformatics, like computational proteomics and next-generation sequencing technologies, are revolutionizing biological and clinical research. Mass spectrometry allows for high-throughput and exact protein analysis, and NGS allows for fast, inexpensive sequencing of samples to reveal deviations, providing complete transcriptome profiles and identifying microbes. Among the NGS technologies, metagenomic NGS is best suited to detect pathogenic organisms in extremely complex samples. Furthermore, machine learning and artificial intelligence are currently changing the bioinformatics applications in proteomics. For prototyping exact precision in predicting protein structures, functions, and interactions, state-of-the-art algorithms harnessed from artificial intelligence, such as AlphaFold by DeepMind, are increasingly being used. They also empower fast turnaround for designing drug targets and therapeutic molecules.
Challenges: Lack of data management/handling in proteomics research
Although there is a huge volume of proteomics data that is available, the challenge in this market lies in the access and efficient utilization of the same. Poor data management can have a deleterious effect on the outcome of research and may actually turn out to be a growth inhibitor for the market. Recent studies have pointed out that owing to the inefficient handling of data, the use of proteomics data in major applications such as biomarker discovery and drug development has been restricted. For example, researchers in a major biotech company were slowed down while trying to analyze high-throughput proteomics data in the identification of potential therapeutic targets. Such delays slow not only the progress in research but also lengthen the time it takes to translate such discoveries into actionable results, which prolongs the product development cycle. Moreover, the lack of standardization of data formats and lack of interoperability between proteomics platforms make the integration of data from different research initiatives or even institutions very difficult. Besides, high-throughput experiments generate proteomics data that require specialized expertise in processing and analysis. Researchers often invest a huge amount of time in the preprocessing and analysis of proteomics data in order to extract meaningful information. The absence of separation of sample numbers in proteomics repositories makes it extremely hard to formulate the necessary research queries.
