Drug Delivery Products

The best growth opportunities will emerge in dosage formulations that improve therapy for autoimmune conditions, cancer, heart disease, neurological disorders and other debilitating illnesses.

US demand to rise 7.4% annually through 2015

US demand for drug delivery products will expand 7.4 percent annually to $134 billion in 2015. The best growth opportunities will emerge in dosage formulations that advance the nature of therapy for autoimmune conditions, cancer, heart disease, neurological disorders and other debilitating health problems. Drug delivery devices with improved safety, infection prevention and ease-of-use features will also fare well in the marketplace. Based on the complex nature of therapy and the high frequency of dosing requirements, central nervous system and hormonal and related conditions will be the fastest growing indications served by drug delivery products.

Parenteral drug delivery products to grow fastest

Demand for oral drug delivery products will increase 4.3 percent annually to over $52 billion in 2015. Controlled-release formulations will command the largest share of sales, but will lose some growth momentum due to patent expirations on several large-selling sustained-release therapies. Nanoparticulate medicines will record some of the fastest growth among oral drug delivery products based on new products and the high value-added nature of indications served.

Demand for parenteral drug delivery products will reach $54.7 billion in 2015, up nearly eleven percent annually from 2010. Monoclonal antibodies will lead gains as advances in biotechnology lead to the introduction of new and improved therapies for autoimmune disorders, cancer and various rare debilitating diseases. Polymer-encapsulated medicines will also record fast rising demand based on contributions to the improved bioavailability and reduced toxicity of advanced parenteral compounds. Safety-engineered prefillable syringes and IV catheters, along with bag/vial infusion systems, will post the best growth among parenteral delivery devices based largely on infection prevention advantages.

Demand for other drug delivery products will rise 7.4 percent annually to $27.1 billion in 2010. Prefilled dry powder and metered dose inhalers will retain the largest share of sales, spurred by upward trends in prevalence of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, growth for these devices will decelerate as patent expirations open up several widely prescribed inhalation therapies, including sales leader ADVAIR (GlaxoSmithKline), to generic competition.

Demand for implantable drug delivery products will increase nearly eleven percent annually through 2015 led by new brachytherapy offerings for cancer and macular degeneration. Additionally, the US market for drug-eluting stents will rebound from a recent downturn as next-generation devices with thinner struts and improved safety profiles promote expansion in the volume of angioplasty procedures.

Study Scope

This study analyzes the $93.8 billion US drug delivery system industry. It presents historical demand data for the years 2000, 2005 and 2010, and forecasts for 2015 and 2020 by excipient (e.g., polymers, cellulose, minerals), product type (e.g., oral, parenteral, inhalation, implantable, transdermal) and application (e.g., central nervous system, respiratory, hormones, gastrointestinal).

The study also considers market environment factors, details industry structure, evaluates company market share and profiles 27 industry players, including Roche, GlaxoSmithKline and Becton Dickinson.
