According to a new report published by Allied Market Research, titled, “Stem Cell Umbilical Cord Blood Market Stem Cell Umbilical Cord Blood Market by Storage Service (Public Cord Blood Banks, Private Cord Blood Banks, and Hybrid Cord Blood Banks), Therapeutics (Cancer, Diabetes, Blood Diseases, Immune Disorders, Metabolic Disorders, and  Other diseases), and Application (Transplant Medicine and Regenerative Medicine): Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2020–2027,”the global stem cell umbilical cord blood market is expected to reach $10,135.20million by 2027, registering a CAGR of 16.9% from 2020 to 2027, in terms of value.

Presently, the global stem cell market dominates the healthcare industry with its reliable and cost-effective methods of treatment and fewer side effects. The umbilical cord blood stem cell segment is one of the potential segments of the stem cell market, which is projected to grow in the future. Cord blood is one of the rich sources of stem cells, which are treated as waste after pregnancy or childbirth; however, this blood has huge potential to treat chronic diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and blood disease immune diseases. 

Currently, more than 80 genetic diseases can be treated with cord blood and the blood is rich source of hematopoietic stem cells. Various governments are supporting the research and clinical trials of cord blood stem cells, which is has increased the interest of healthcare companies to invest in research and commercialization of cord blood stem cell therapies. However, competition in the market is intense with companies trying to create brand awareness, therefore, compelling market players to adopt many market-based strategies. These stem cells are the only type of cells that are stored in controlled conditions due to their lower volume and higher cell count. 

Cost structure of the stem cell treatment has a major impact on the growth of the stem cell umbilical cord blood market in developed countries. Stem cells collected from cord blood are used in treatment of many rare diseases that include metabolic diseases and immune diseases. The overall stem cell umbilical cord blood market is growing from clinical applications to commercialization. Companies involved in the research and commercialization of stem cell therapies are adopting approval and clinical trials as their primary strategy and product launch as their secondary strategy. 

Based on the storage services, the stem cell umbilical cord blood market is segmented into private cord blood banks, public cord blood banks and hybrid cord blood banks. The private cord banks segment was the highest contributor to the market, with $1,537 million in 2019, and is estimated to reach $4,765.90 million by 2027, at a CAGR of 15.3% during the forecast period.
