Global Biopharmaceutical CROs Market (2021 to 2030) - by Type of Biologic, Scale of Operation, Therapeutic Area and Geography

Dublin, July 07, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Biopharmaceutical CROs Market: Distribution by Type of Biologic, Scale of Operation, Therapeutic Area, and Geography - Industry Trends and Global Forecasts, 2021-2030" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

This report features an extensive study of the current market landscape and the likely future potential of the biopharmaceutical CROs market, over the next decade. The study also includes an in-depth analysis, highlighting the capabilities of various industry stakeholders engaged in this field.

Given the various advantages of biologics, such as high specificity for their intended molecular targets, ability to treat a myriad of disease indications, and patient friendly toxicity profiles, the demand for such interventions is high. In 2020 alone, more than 20 biopharmaceutical products (including monoclonal antibodies, recombinant proteins and gene therapies) were approved in the US. Amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, the biopharmaceutical industry has witnessed considerable growth, with several stakeholders actively engaged in the development of multiple vaccine candidates, some of which have received emergency use authorizations against the novel coronavirus strain. However, it is a well-known fact that the development and clinical evaluation of biologics is both challenging and cost intensive, and requires advanced product development expertise and bioprocessing technologies. Therefore, many innovators in the biopharmaceutical industry are opting to outsource their drug discovery and clinical research operations to capable contract service providers.

Contract research organizations (CROs) have the necessary capabilities and experience to expertly support biopharmaceutical R&D projects. Being well-aware of the nuances of drug design and development, such organizations have long been assisting biologics developers to navigate through process-related complexities and stringent regulatory environments, across different geographies. Several big pharma players, with multifarious product development programs, are increasingly engaging with third party research entities to reduce the strain on their internal R&D infrastructure. In fact, it is estimated that big pharma players presently outsource close to 45% of their internal R&D operations to CROs. In the past few years, several niche CROs, claiming to offer services for the development of specialty biologics, have been established, and are gradually being acquired by larger entities that are trying to consolidate their presence amidst the growing competition in this space. The contract research services segment is considered to be an indispensable part of the overall biopharmaceutical market. As more developers opt to outsource various aspects of their business processes, we anticipate the biologics contract research services market to grow at a steady pace in the coming years.

Amongst other elements, the report features:

• A detailed review of the overall landscape of the biopharmaceutical services market, highlighting the contributions of CROs, along with information on their year of establishment, company size, location of headquarters, types of biologics manufactured (vaccines, cell therapies, gene therapies, antibodies, recombinant proteins / peptides, vectors, biosimilars and others), scale of operation (clinical and preclinical) and types of services offered (including [A] clinical services (trial management services, clinical data management, safety and pharmacovigilance services, regulatory services, consulting services and other clinical services) and [B] preclinical services (toxicology studies, in vivo studies, safety studies, PK / ADME and other bioanalytical studies, consulting services, regulatory services, other preclinical services).
