Latest Study explores the Contract Research Organization Services Market Witness Highest Growth in Near Future
Emergence of Covid-19 pandemic is expected to propel growth
of the contract research organization services market. For instance, globally, as of 4:03pm CET, 1 March 2021, there have been
113,820,168 confirmed cases of COVID-19, including 2,527,891 deaths, reported
to the World Health Organization. Moreover, increasing investment in biological
therapies is also expected to aid in growth of the market. For instance, in
April 2020, i2O Therapeutics, a Harvard-launched biotech company developing a
platform for oral delivery of injectable biological drugs, raised US$ 4 million
in seed funding led by Sanofi Ventures and JDRF T1D Fund.
Launch of new products is expected to offer lucrative growth
opportunities for players in the contract
research organization services market. For instance, in January 2020, WuXi
Advanced Therapies, a global contract development and manufacturing
organization, launched fully integrated adeno-associated virus Vector
Suspension Platform to help accelerate the timeline for cell and gene therapy
development. Moreover, increasing cost and time required for drug development
is also expected to aid in growth of the market. For instance, the cost of drug
development was US$ 2.6 billion, which included average out-of-pocket costs of
US$ 1.4 billion and time costs of US$ 1.2 billion, according to a study by the
Tufts Center for the Study of Drug Development published in the Journal of
Health Economics in May 2019.
Among regions, North America is expected to witness
significant growth in the contract research organization services market, owing
to increasing number of patent expirations in the region. For instance,
Boehringer Ingelheim’s Atrovent HFA (ipratropium hfa) used for the treatment of
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and AstraZeneca’s Bydureon (exenatide)
used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes is expired in May 2020 and October
2020, respectively.
The growth of the market is also driven by increasing
prevalence of chronic disorders in the region. For instance, according to the
American Cancer Society, in 2019, there will be an estimated 1,762,450 new
cancer cases diagnosed and 606,880 cancer deaths in the U.S.
