Abstract:

[Objective] This paper aims to provide valuable information for fully utilizing the potential of mRNA technology through a comprehensive analysis of mRNA technology related drugs or vaccines. [Methods] Based on the Cortellis database, mRNA technology related drugs or vaccines were analyzed from the development trends, major countries/regions, major institutions, action targets, product types, disease indications, clinical stages and market conditions, so as to comprehensively and systematically reflect the research status in the field of mRNA. [Results] mRNA products have shown a rapid development trend since 2020. The number of mRNA products in the United States, China and Germany rank the top three in the world. Moderna and BioNTech have a large number of mRNA products. mRNA products are mainly used in the field of infectious diseases, neoplasms and endocrine/metabolic diseases, and their targets are mainly coronavirus peak protein. The clinical research of mRNA products is mainly at the preclinical research stage. [Conclusions] China has been in the forefront of mRNA related research, but there is still a gap compared with the United States, Germany and some other countries in basic research related to mRNA technologies. In the future, China should increase the project deployment and basic research in the field of mRNA technology, improve the level of clinical research and the transformation and application of research achievements.
