cGAS-STING Pathway Market to Hit USD 5.2 Billion by 2034, Growing at 14.7% CAGR

Introduction
The cyclic GMP-AMP synthase-stimulator of interferon genes (cGAS-STING) pathway has emerged as a pivotal discovery in immunology, acting as a critical sensor of cytosolic DNA and activating innate immune responses. This pathway plays a central role in antiviral defense, cancer immunology, and autoimmune diseases, making it a prime therapeutic target.

Over the last decade, pharmaceutical and biotech companies have intensified their focus on modulating the cGAS-STING pathway. From developing small-molecule agonists to leveraging synthetic cyclic dinucleotides, this area has gained attention as a cornerstone for next-generation cancer immunotherapies, vaccines, and autoimmune disease treatments. With clinical trials progressing and significant venture capital funding, the cGAS-STING market is set for robust expansion through 2034.
