The Global High Potency Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients Market is estimated to be USD 32.96 Bn in 2023 and is expected to reach USD 61.54 Bn by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 13.3%.Market players are integrating continuous manufacturing and containment technologies for enhanced safety and efficiency
Highly potent active pharmaceutical ingredients (HPAPIs) are pharmacologically active substances that exhibit biological activity at extremely low concentrations, such as a daily therapeutic dose of < 10 mg or an occupational exposure limit (OEL) of < 10 μg/m3 at an eight-hour time-weighted average. HPAPIs are classified based on their toxicity through occupational exposure limits (OELs). Some examples of HPAPIs are cytotoxic compounds and hormones such as estrogen. COVID-19 witnessed a positive impact on the high potency APIs market. The pandemic has provided opportunities for the key market players to invest and develop innovative HPAPIs for the treatment of infectious diseases.
The demand for high-potency active pharmaceutical ingredients is due to the increasingly adopting of targeted medicines because they are more effective and have fewer side effects than traditional chemotherapy. Targeted medicines are aimed at the disease while minimizing the off-target side effects caused to the normal cells. This leads to their higher adoption among other drugs in the market. The rising requirement for targeted medicines by the oncology sector is driven by increasing volumes and prices of oncology medicines. Furthermore, ongoing research and development activities for novel HPAPIs are being conducted to improve drug efficacy and reduce toxicity. The growing preference for outsourcing HPAPI manufacturing and the rich pipeline with targeted therapeutic drugs are likely to boost the market's growth.
Furthermore, the high risk of cross-contamination, huge capital investment, and high technical skills required for production are expected to hinder the market.
Market Segmentations
- The Global High Potency Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients Market is segmented based on Synthesis, Drug Type, Manufacturer Type, Applications, and Geography.
- By Synthesis, the market is classified into Biotech API and Synthetic API.
- The demand for Synthetic API is predicted to hold the largest market share in the forecasting period due to the higher effectiveness in treatment offered by synthetic HPAPI for a wide range of diseases at very small dosages. Moreover, with the expiry of patents associated with synthetic molecules, generics are increasingly entered into the market.
- By Drug Type, the market is classified into Innovative and Generic.
- The Generic segment is predicted to grow with the highest CAGR in the forecasting period, due to the low cost of generics as an alternative to branded drugs, a large number of patents expired branded drugs, and initiatives by governments and other regulatory bodies across the globe expecting to rise demand for generic drugs. As of 2021, more than 10,000 FDA-approved generic medications are on the market, with generics filling nine out of ten prescriptions in the U.S.
- By Manufacturer Type, the market is classified into In-house and Outsourced.
- The Outsourced segment is expected to grow fastest during the forecast period due to manufacturing reducing the company's risk, product complexity, and resource commitment, which allows for which further is expected to rise in the demand of the market.
- By Applications, the market is classified into Oncology, Hormonal Disorders, and Glaucoma.
- The Oncology segment is predicted to grow with the highest CAGR in the forecasting period due to the increasing prevalence of cancer worldwide. According to WHO 2022 updates, Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide, accounting for nearly 10 Mn deaths in 2020, or nearly one in six deaths. The most common cancers are breast, lung, colon and rectum, and prostate. Due to the rise in cancer incidence, key market players are expanding their manufacturing capabilities to meet unmet needs.
- By Geography, the market is classified into Americas, Europe, Middle-East & Africa, and Asia-Pacific.
- America is expected to hold a major share in the high-potency APIs/HPAPI market. Chronic diseases, like cancer, are also high in the United States. According to the American Cancer Society estimation, in 2022, 1.9 Mn new cancer cases were diagnosed and 609,360 cancer deaths in the United States. The rising geriatric population and increasing prevalence and incidence of infectious diseases in this region.
