M2 - Wed Mar 12, 6:14AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/4lq46f/regenerative) has announced the addition of the "Concise Analysis of the United States Regenerative Medicine Market - Forecasts to 2016" report to their offering. There is a high demand for synthetic organ transplants in the market. Regenerative medicine helps in the development of artificial organs. The introduction of artificial organs for implantation is expected to encourage many vendors and research organizations to develop advanced stem cell products, therapies, and regenerative products. It will also help reduce the long organ waiting list. For instance, custom-made windpipe can be made using regenerative products within a week. The first ever implant of a synthetic trachea took place in June 2011. The synthetic trachea was made from minuscule plastic fibers and was covered in stem cells taken from a human bone marrow. Surgeons successfully implanted this synthetic trachea into a 36-year-old patient with late-stage tracheal cancer at Karolinska University Hospital in Stockholm. Thus, the use of synthetic organs in transplant surgeries is expected to have a positive impact on the growth of the market. According to the report, one of the main drivers of this market is the increasing prevalence of degenerative diseases. Regenerative products have helped in addressing the unmet needs of various disease areas. Another major driver of the market is the significant advances seen in R&D. Key Topics Covered: 1.

The market is expected to reach revenue of $56.4 billion by 2020, growing at CAGR of 33.4% during 2013 to 2020 The study observed that the global umbilical cord blood stem cell market is forecasted to reach market value over $11.5 billion in 2014 from $ 6.5 billion in 2012. Developments and approvals for novel cord blood stem cells therapies is expected to drive the market growth. The storage service market was valued at $7.4 billion in 2013. Increase in prevalence rate of chronic diseases such as cancer, diabetes, blood disease, immune disease, metabolic disease etc. has increased the need of cost effective and efficient way of treatment. However, cord blood stem cells have the potential to treat these chronic diseases effectively. These stem cells have special property of higher cell count in lower blood volume. Collection of these stem cells is much easier than other stem cells and could be stored in specialized preservation facilities called as Cord Blood Stem Cell Banks.Cord blood stem cells market is in its emerging phase. Significant applications of stem cells in the treatment of various disorders will be commercialized very soon as most of them are in the last phase of clinical trials. Patents for collection techniques and therapeutics methods are approved by respective government of developed countries however patents for UCB stem cells are comparatively less in developing economies. According to lead analyst Debbie Shields, the geographic analysis shows that the North American market for cord blood stem cell would account for approx. 44% of total revenue generated by the cord blood market in 2013. However, much expected growth is to occur in Asia-Pacific regions during the forecast period, because of growing demand for chronic disease treatments and widely increasing awareness levels.

Concise Analysis of the United States Regenerative Medicine Market - Forecasts to 2016
M2 - Wed Mar 12, 6:14AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/4lq46f/regenerative) has announced the addition of the "Concise Analysis of the United States Regenerative Medicine Market - Forecasts to 2016" report to their offering. There is a high demand for synthetic organ transplants in the market. Regenerative medicine helps in the development of artificial organs. The introduction of artificial organs for implantation is expected to encourage many vendors and research organizations to develop advanced stem cell products, therapies, and regenerative products. It will also help reduce the long organ waiting list. For instance, custom-made windpipe can be made using regenerative products within a week. The first ever implant of a synthetic trachea took place in June 2011. The synthetic trachea was made from minuscule plastic fibers and was covered in stem cells taken from a human bone marrow. Surgeons successfully implanted this synthetic trachea into a 36-year-old patient with late-stage tracheal cancer at Karolinska University Hospital in Stockholm. Thus, the use of synthetic organs in transplant surgeries is expected to have a positive impact on the growth of the market. According to the report, one of the main drivers of this market is the increasing prevalence of degenerative diseases. Regenerative products have helped in addressing the unmet needs of various disease areas. Another major driver of the market is the significant advances seen in R&D. Key Topics Covered: 1.

Global Stem Cell Umbilical Cord Blood (UCB) Market to 2020
M2 - Mon Mar 10, 7:45AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/gsw6jj/global_stem_cell) has announced the addition of the "Global Stem Cell Umbilical Cord Blood (UCB) Market to 2020" report to their offering. The market is expected to reach revenue of $56.4 billion by 2020, growing at CAGR of 33.4% during 2013 to 2020 The study observed that the global umbilical cord blood stem cell market is forecasted to reach market value over $11.5 billion in 2014 from $ 6.5 billion in 2012. Developments and approvals for novel cord blood stem cells therapies is expected to drive the market growth. The storage service market was valued at $7.4 billion in 2013. Increase in prevalence rate of chronic diseases such as cancer, diabetes, blood disease, immune disease, metabolic disease etc. has increased the need of cost effective and efficient way of treatment. However, cord blood stem cells have the potential to treat these chronic diseases effectively. These stem cells have special property of higher cell count in lower blood volume. Collection of these stem cells is much easier than other stem cells and could be stored in specialized preservation facilities called as Cord Blood Stem Cell Banks.Cord blood stem cells market is in its emerging phase. Significant applications of stem cells in the treatment of various disorders will be commercialized very soon as most of them are in the last phase of clinical trials. Patents for collection techniques and therapeutics methods are approved by respective government of developed countries however patents for UCB stem cells are comparatively less in developing economies. According to lead analyst Debbie Shields, the geographic analysis shows that the North American market for cord blood stem cell would account for approx. 44% of total revenue generated by the cord blood market in 2013. However, much expected growth is to occur in Asia-Pacific regions during the forecast period, because of growing demand for chronic disease treatments and widely increasing awareness levels. This report study offers updated review about major market players present in this market such as researcher based pharmaceutical companies and therapeutics services companies.

Global Cell Therapy Market & Pipeline Insight Research Report
M2 - Tue Mar 04, 3:02AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/5kmmgq/global_cell) has announced the addition of the "Global Cell Therapy Market & Pipeline Insight" report to their offering. Research in cell therapy is transforming the future of medicine. As the life of a human being begins as a cell, these cells undergo a highly complex set of events and finally those few stems become capable of self-renewal and differentiation and develop into the specialized cells in the body. Cell therapy research also offers significant potential for restructuring the method of medical practice. Over the past 3-5 years, a more complex therapeutic modality has been is emerging as cell therapies which have been developed to treat diseases which are not amenable to treatment with more classical pharmaceutical or biopharmaceutical products. This market offers the promise of successfully regenerating damaged tissues and organs in the body by replacing the damaged tissue and/or by stimulating the body's own repair mechanisms to heal previously irreparable tissues. With their rising popularity, these therapies are becoming more cost effective and efficient. The global market for cell therapy was valued at close to USD 2.5 Billion in 2012. With continuous advances and developments in this field of medicine, the global cell therapy market is expected to grow at a high rate of 20-22% to reach approximately USD 8 Billion by 2018.
