ORAL SOLID DOSAGE CONTRACT MANUFACTURING MARKET: GROWTH AND TRENDS
Despite several novel dosage forms being introduced into the pharmaceutical and nutraceutical sectors, oral solid drugs (OSD), particularly tablets and capsules, continue to be the most popular and widely used delivery forms. This is due to the fact that these formulations offer various advantages, including self-administration, stability, cost-effectiveness, convenience of handling, transportation and patient compliance. This mature yet high-value vertical of the overall pharmaceutical industry represents about 90% of the global market share of all formulations intended for human use.
However, OSD manufacturing operations is a complex process requiring specialized equipment and facilities, highly contained working environments and experts with multidisciplinary knowledge. Further, recent evolution to address the upstream bottlenecks associated with active pharmaceutical ingredients (API), such as poor bioavailability, low solubility, bitter taste and high potency, necessitate extensive technical expertise. As a result, drug developers are increasingly relying on contract service providers to leverage their capabilities and yield cost savings opportunities. Unlike drug developers, the capabilities of these third-party service providers are usually more focused on their respective service portfolios. They support pharmaceutical companies with specialized capabilities ranging from process and formulation development to drug substance characterization, analytical method development, and regulatory filings, as well as capacity for clinical and commercial manufacturing. Considering the growing trend of outsourcing and the ongoing efforts of service providers to improve / expand their offerings, it is anticipated that the oral solid dosage contract manufacturing market is likely to evolve at a steady pace, in the mid to long term.
