Monday 15 Jul 2013

Industry Experts, a multi industry focused market research firm, has unveiled the 2013 version of ’Biopharmaceuticals – A Global Market Overview’. As per the new report monoclonal antibodies (moAb) constitutes the largest product segment in the global biopharmaceuticals market accounting for an estimated share of 25.6% in 2013, equating to US$51.1 billion. In addition, monoclonal antibodies (moAb) are forecasted to record fastest growth in reaching US$138.8 billion by 2020 at a 2010-20 CAGR of 14.9%.

The pharmaceutical R&D pipeline and industry have been witnessing greater degree of dependence on biopharmaceuticals. Development of these products is being undertaken by a growing number of players in the pharmaceutical industry, which include the big pharma companies as also generic drug manufacturers, who are also engaged in developing biosimilars. In conjunction with the traditional small biopharmaceutical companies, the new bigger entrants have been focused on continually expanding the global biologics pipeline, implying that the number and proportion of new pharmaceuticals being commercialized would increasingly comprise biopharmaceuticals and not small molecule drugs. As the cost of developing biopharmaceuticals and bringing them to market is generally much higher, offering enhanced profit margins, it comes as no surprise that the global pharmaceutical industry would continue to rely on biopharmaceuticals for profits and innovation, in addition to its very survival.

Even though the worldwide economic recession has been slow in recovering, the global pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical industries have marched ahead, showing profitability and growth. According to estimates, more than 10k therapeutics are currently in the research and development stage, which include chemical substance pharmaceuticals or drugs and biotechnology-derived pharmaceuticals or biopharmaceuticals undergoing over 40k clinical trials. This translates into a significant increase from as little as half-a-decade back, indicating a conspicuous shift in the pharmaceutical industry from developing small molecule drugs to biopharmaceuticals for obtaining novel, ground-breaking and profitable solutions.
