Market Opportunities

  • Technological Advancements in API Manufacturing
  • Increasing Outsourcing of API Production

Market Definition

Active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) are the biologically active ingredients in medications responsible for their therapeutic effects. They are the essence of pharmaceutical formulations, providing the desired medicinal properties. APIs undergo stringent testing and regulation to ensure safety and efficacy. These substances are crucial in drug manufacturing, pivotal in developing various pharmaceutical products.           

North America Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API) Market Dynamics

Drivers

  • Growing Generic Drug Market

Generic drugs, reliant on APIs as active constituents, offer cost-effective alternatives to branded medications, fueling API production growth. This trend reflects the increasing preference for affordable pharmaceutical options, particularly in regions with limited healthcare resources and rising healthcare costs. The growing generic drug market, especially in developing nations, drives API demand.  

  • Increasing Prevalence of Chronic Diseases

The surge in chronic diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular ailments, and diabetes fuels the demand for active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). APIs are indispensable in crafting medications to combat these conditions. Consequently, the escalating prevalence of chronic illnesses propels the need for APIs, essential components in the formulation of drugs targeting these ailments.

For instance, according to the 2022 statistics from the International Diabetes Federation (IDF), diabetic cases are forecasted to increase to 643 million by 2030 and to 784 million by 2045, highlighting a concerning trend in global diabetes prevalence.

Opportunities

  • Increasing Outsourcing of API Production

Outsourcing API production to specialized manufacturers, driven by cost advantages and regulatory benefits, drives the growth of contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs) and contract development and manufacturing organizations (CDMOs), shaping the pharmaceutical manufacturing landscape. This trend reflects a strategic shift in API in pharmaceutical industry dynamics, optimizing production capabilities and enhancing global supply chains. 

For instance, in October 2022, Mendus AB partnered with Minaris Regenerative Medicine GmbH to facilitate technology transfer for manufacturing DCP-001, its lead development program. DCP-001 is undergoing evaluation in the ADVANCE II Phase 2 trial for preventing tumor recurrence in Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) and the ALISON Phase 1 trial in ovarian cancer.

  • Technological Advancements in API Manufacturing

Technological advancements in API manufacturing have revolutionized synthesis and production techniques, boosting efficiency, cutting production costs, and elevating product quality. These innovations are pivotal drivers propelling the growth of the API market, ensuring the provision of high-quality pharmaceuticals while enhancing accessibility and affordability for patients worldwide.

Restraints/Challenges

  • Rising Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs for new API discovery and development are soaring. The unpredictability of research and development outcomes and lengthy timelines add to the challenge. API manufacturers face substantial investment risks and must navigate through uncertain paths to bring new products to market, necessitating careful resource allocation and strategic decision-making to mitigate financial and operational hurdles. 

  • Shift in Disease Patterns and Therapeutic Trends

Manufacturers must swiftly adapt to changing healthcare policies, emerging diseases, and shifting therapeutic preferences. Failure to anticipate and respond to these changes can result in reduced market share, diminished revenue streams, and potential obsolescence within the competitive pharmaceutical landscape. Shifts in disease patterns and therapeutic trends challenge the API market by altering demand dynamics.
