LONG-ACTING DRUG DELIVERY TECHNOLOGIES AND SERVICES MARKET: GROWTH AND TRENDS
Long-acting drug delivery systems are being widely adopted for sustained delivery of pharmaceutical drugs to treat a plethora of disease indications, including neurological diseases, infectious diseases, pulmonary diseases, ophthalmological diseases and opioid use disorders. These systems enable effective administration and improved efficacy of peptides, antibodies and vaccines. These novel delivery systems also enable the effective administration of macromolecules for a long-term effect, which are otherwise difficult to administer. Given the potential of long-acting drug delivery systems to improve patient compliance and adherence to medication, industry players have undertaken numerous initiatives to enable the clinical and commercial translation of long-acting drugs under development. This has led to the development of drugs that exhibit prolonged effects (for a few months or years). The application of long-acting therapeutics has the potential to benefit not only the patients but also the healthcare system. In particular, these formulations are beneficial to treat women living in low / middle income countries, as it will result in a substantial drop in the anticipated clinic visits and associated costs.
Further, owing to the formulation and developmental challenges associated with complex dosage forms, the reliability of stakeholders having expertise in the long-acting drug delivery field has grown significantly. This will eventually aid drug developers to address bottlenecks stemming from conventional treatment options and improve the overall clinical outcome. Driven by the technological advancements in the field and rising demand for long-acting drugs, the long-acting drug delivery technologies and services market is anticipated to witness notable growth in the foreseen future.
