Drug Delivery Technologies - Current Market Dynamics, Future Market Opportunities and Lifecycle Strategies
Arrowhead Publishers, Sep 2008, Pages: 283
Overview
The drug delivery industry has in recent years become a key partner for pharmaceutical companies in their efforts to maximize the patent lives of successful products. Drug delivery companies not only stand to benefit from patent expiry by providing their reformulation services to pharmaceutical companies, but also by producing their own versions of branded products with improved delivery mechanisms. Thus, post-patent expiry sales can be switched from the ethical manufacturer to the drug delivery sector.
Drug Delivery Technologies: Current Market Dynamics, Future Market Opportunities and Lifecycle Strategies is an up-to-date guide that assesses the current state of the drug delivery industry and its application to both the pharmaceutical and biotech industries. While the sector is still dominated by oral technologies, drug delivery systems have expanded to include more novel devices such as needleless injectables, PEGylation platforms and microelectromechanical devices. These technological advances extend the duration of a drug’s action, increase delivery to target sites, reduce delivery to unwanted sites, and maximize drug absorption.
The expanding market for biotechnology and gene-based products, which by their very nature are difficult to administer, represents an emerging opportunity for drug delivery technologies. These technologies are first expected to come to market as reformulations of existing macromolecular therapies, such as insulin. This report analyzes the markets for oral, inhalable, injectable, transmucosal, transdermal and niche drug delivery technologies as they apply to both biotech and traditional pharmacological compounds.
