Global Protein Therapeutics Market 2012-2016: Patent-Expiration of Top-Selling Drugs Could Pose a Challenge to the Growth
M2 - Mon Mar 31, 11:44AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/x5wp95/global_protein) has announced the addition of the "Global Protein Therapeutics Market 2012-2016" report to their offering. The analysts forecast the Global Protein Therapeutics market to grow at a CAGR of 7.08 percent over the period 2012-2016. One of the key factors contributing to this market growth is the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases. The market has also been witnessing increasing outsourcing of drug development. The key vendors dominating this space include Roche Holding Ltd., Amgen Inc., Abbott Laboratories, J&J, and Novo Nordisk A/S. The other vendors mentioned in this report are AstraZeneca plc, Biogen Idec Inc., Eli Lilly and Co., Novartis International AG, Bristol Myers Squibb Co., Merck and Co. Inc., Pfizer Inc., Curis Inc., UCB S.A., Elan Corporations Plc, Human Genome Sciences Inc., Daiichi Sankyo Co. Ltd., and GlaxoSmithKline plc. Commenting on the report, an analyst from the Healthcare team said: The development and manufacture of drugs is a complex and time-consuming process, and also requires huge financial investments. As many vendors in the market are facing the problem of declining venture capital investments, they are increasingly following the strategy of outsourcing. Many vendors outsource different parts of the R&D process such as product characterization testing and toxicology testing to CROs. Likewise, a few vendors are increasingly outsourcing a part of their manufacturing process, or the entire manufacturing process to various organizations. Thus, the Global Protein Therapeutics market is currently witnessing the trend of increased outsourcing of drug development activities.
