FILL FINISH PHARMACEUTICAL CONTRACT MANUFACTURING MARKET: GROWTH AND TRENDS
Currently, small molecule drugs represent nearly 90% of the current therapeutics pipeline. Further, estimates suggest that approximately 60% of the new drugs approved each year are small molecules. This can be attributed to the rapid pace of innovation in this segment, driven by the growing preference for effective and personalized pharmacological interventions. However, small molecules are associated with several complexities, including the challenges involved in the sterile fill finish of such molecules.
The sterile fill-finish process is one of the most important steps in pharmaceutical manufacturing. Maintenance of aseptic conditions during production process (such as fill finish) is not only critical for ensuring the safety of the patients but also for preserving product quality and pharmacological efficacy. Moreover, novel small molecules-based formulations require specialized equipment and expertise, leading to increased production costs. This has compelled several drug developers to outsource various aspects of fill finish operations to contract service providers. Further, the integration of advanced technologies, such as robotics and artificial intelligence, is driving the advancement in this domain. Driven by the need for specialized expertise and streamlined production workflows, growing pipeline technological advancement, the fill finish pharmaceutical contract manufacturing market is likely to witness substantial growth in the near future.
