Cell and gene therapies (CGTs) are revolutionizing the treatment paradigm for a range of life-threatening and rare conditions, offering curative potential where conventional therapies have fallen short. In Asia, the CGT landscape has matured significantly in recent years, driven by regulatory reforms, increased local development and a growing number of product approvals. This updated review presents a comprehensive analysis of CGT regulatory frameworks, product approvals, pricing trends and reimbursement policies across six key Asian markets: Singapore, Japan, South Korea, China, India and Thailand. Drawing upon updated data from 2023 to 2025, we examine differences in regulatory maturity, access pathways, affordability and local manufacturing capabilities. The review highlights how certain countries, such as Japan and South Korea, have successfully implemented fast-track regulatory pathways, while others, like India and China, have emphasized domestic innovation to drive down costs. Despite progress, affordability, scalability and sustainable reimbursement remain persistent challenges. By presenting an up-to-date comparative analysis and synthesizing emerging policy innovations, this article offers insights into opportunities for harmonization, equitable access and future policy planning in Asia's rapidly evolving CGT sector.
