RNAi Drug Delivery Market

RNAi Drug Delivery Market Size (2024 to 2029)

The size of the global RNAi drug delivery market is estimated to be growing at a CAGR of 27.2% from 2024 to 2029. The size of the market is estimated to be worth USD 270.02 billion by 2029 from USD 81.09 billion in 2024.

RNAi is a defense mechanism employed by Eukaryotes to degrade exogenous genes such as viruses. It is exclusively called gene silencing. We can initiate this by injecting RNAi-based drugs into the human body called RNAi Drug Delivery. RNAi Drug Delivery is an emerging therapeutic method. This method is specific to the point and has fewer side effects. It is possible to cure cancer with this method by controlling gene mutation. From 2006 onwards, various clinical trials have been held, and people are investing billions in this market to approve and research different types of RNAi-based Drugs.
