INTRODUCTION
Since the approval of the first protein / peptide-based therapy (recombinant human insulin) in 1982, there has been a substantial increase in the R&D initiatives focused on such products. Earlier, majority of the biologics were administered subcutaneously. However, with the technological advancements in delivery formulations, oral delivery of therapeutic interventions has gained significant traction, prompting stakeholders to leverage their expertise in the development of orally administrable proteins / peptides. Interestingly, in the last decade, three orally administered protein / peptide-based therapies have been approved, namely Mycapssa® (2020), Trulance® (2017) and Linzess® (2012) across different geographies. The rising popularity of this upcoming class of therapeutics has led to the reformulation / development of oral protein / peptide-based product candidates for the treatment of a myriad of disease indications across multiple therapeutic areas (including but not limited to metabolic disorders, gastrointestinal disorders, autoimmune disorders). It is worth mentioning that oral administration is a favorable route for delivery of drugs to pediatric and geriatric patients, primarily due to its non-invasive nature. In addition, the ease of administration associated with the oral delivery method has been demonstrated increase treatment adherence to as well as reduce the risk of non-compliance.
Protein / peptide-based therapeutics have revolutionized the pharmaceutical landscape, this can be attributed to the wide applications and target specific nature of such interventions. However, oral formulations of protein / peptide-based drugs have been associated with several drawbacks, including poor bioavailability and drug decomposition in the gastrointestinal tract. In order to mitigate the aforementioned challenges, players engaged in this domain have conducted extensive research for the development of novel biological targets, thereby, strengthening their research pipelines. In addition, this segment of the industry has also attracted the attention of both private and public sector investors / investment funds, which have extended financial support to the initiatives of developers. It is also worth mentioning that, over the last few years, the market has witnessed an active participation of big pharma players and substantial partnership activity. Given the ongoing research and development initiatives and an encouraging response to the already marketed drugs, the oral protein / peptide therapies market is poised to witness significant growth over the coming decade.
