Report Highlights
- The global market for advanced drug delivery systems amounted to $134.3 billion in 2008, and was projected to increase to $139 billion in 2009. The estimate for 2014 is $196.4 billion, for a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.2% in the 5-year period.
- The largest segment of the market is targeted drug delivery, which reached $50.9 billion in 2009 and is expected to increase to $80.2 billion in 2014, for a CAGR of 9.5%.
- Sustained-release products have the second-largest market share, with estimated sales of $36.1 billion in 2009 and $45.8 billion in 2014, for a CAGR of 4.9%.
Report Highlights
-
The U.S. sales of advanced drug delivery systems were over $54.2 billion in 2004. In 2005 they reached $64.1 billion and will eventually grow to $74.4 billion by the end of 2006. Over 5 years, this market will continue to grow at an average annual growth rate (AAGR) of 15.6% to reach $153.5 billion by 2011.
-
The largest sector of the market consists of sustained release/implants/transdermal drug delivery systems, with more than 50% of the total U.S. market in 2005. Through the forecast period this sector will gradually give way to targeted drug delivery systems, which should control almost 48% of the market in 2011.
-
Targeted drug delivery has the highest growth rate, with a 23.3% AAGR through 2011. The next highest are transmucosal drug delivery systems, with 15.3%.
Report Highlights
- The U.S. market for drug delivery systems in 2002 was $38.8 billion, and is expected to rise at an average annual growth rate (AAGR) of 11.3% and reach $74.5 billion by 2008.
- The sustained release (oral, injectable and topical) dosage form market is rising at an AAGR of 9.7% is expected to reach $34.1 billion by 2008.
- The transmucosal market is expected to grow at an AAGR of 12.8% and reach $17.7 billion by 2008.
- The market for targeted delivery systems was $7.3 billion in 2002 and will reach $15.5 billion by 2008.
- Transdermal systems and implants and IUDs are expected to climb at AAGRs of 11.1% and 12.4%, respectively.
Report Highlights
- Despite the complaints of health care being too expensive, the U.S. pharmaceutical industry is expected to offer increasing opportunities for advanced drug delivery systems, with the U.S. market for the systems estimated at $16.3 billion in 2000. The efficacy, safety, and convenience of the technologies should maintain average annual growth of 10.9% over the next five years, when sales are predicted to be about $27.4 billion.
- At $13.8 billion in estimated 2000 manufacturers' sales, standard controlled release technologies (microencapsulation, polymer/membrane, and coatings) dominate the market for advanced drug delivery systems. The intense competition in generic products is stimulating growth (7.2%), especially in oral formats, both osmotic and microencapsulated. Demand for injected sustained release products is also spurring growth. The widespread interest in controlled released systems should result in sales reaching $19.6 billion in five years.
