Although the healthcare industry relies on patient to take medications responsibly, in 2017, close to 18 million individuals were reported to have misused prescription drugs, in the US. In fact, data from a National Survey on Drug Use and Health conducted in the same year, showed that an estimated 2 million Americans misused prescription pain relievers for the first time in the previous year. Moreover, the same study reported 1.5 million people abusing tranquilizers, over 1 million abusing prescription stimulants and more than 270,000 abusing sedatives, for the first time, in the same time period. Owing to a rapid onset of medicinal effect, which offers immediate relief (with high efficacy), opioids are still considered to be one of the most widely used pharmacological interventions for pain management. However, these drugs are known to induce a euphoric state upon consumption, often causing patients to abuse them; increased recreational use of opioids is known to lead to addiction. Moreover, over-prescription of such medicinal products, which promotes their misuse, is considered as one of the root causes of the opioid crisis (increasing number of deaths involving misuse and addiction to opioids), in the US. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), more than 72,000 overdose-related deaths were reported in 2017, of which close to 50,000 involved the use of an opioid. Moreover, opioid abuse was estimated to have been responsible for an economic deficit of over USD 500 billion, related to loss of productivity and healthcare costs, in the US. Other drug classes that are prone to abuse include antidepressants and central nervous system (CNS) stimulants. In 2017, close to 17,000 deaths were reported to have been the result of an overdose of prescription antidepressants. Most of these deaths (~11,500) involved the misuse of benzodiazepines, such as VALIUM® (diazepam) and XANAX® (alprazolam). CNS stimulants are usually indicated for the treatment of patients suffering from attention-deficit / hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Among the various overdose-related deaths which took place in 2017, it is worth highlighting that over 12% involved the use of psychostimulants. Prescription drug abuse has prompted pharmaceutical developers to devise various strategies to prevent misuse. Some of the commonly used approaches to abuse deterrence include limiting use of opioids post-surgery, implementing stringent medicine prescribing guidelines and conducting prescription drug monitoring programs, and creating abuse deterrent formulations (ADFs) of drugs that are likely to be misused. Drug formulations that are designed to prevent an active pharmacological substance from being abused have been identified as a viable and sustainable alternative to limiting recreational / off-prescription use of the abovementioned drug classes and its consequences. Over the years, several different types of abuse deterrent formulation technologies have been developed; these include physical / chemical barriers that prevent drugs from being manipulated for recreational use, addition of chemical agents that interfere with the effects of the drug upon improper use and abuse-resistant drug delivery / administration technologies. Specifically, for opioids, market experts believe that in the foreseen future, ADFs of such drugs are likely to replace conventional forms of such products. However, there are concerns regarding how this transition can be made in a responsible and economically feasible manner.

The global vaccines market is anticipated to generate revenues worth USD 100 billion by 2025. According to the WHO, the global vaccination rate is nearly 85%, demonstrating the high clinical demand for vaccines. In addition to meeting the growing demand for vaccines, the developers of these pharmacological interventions are also plagued by high costs of development and complex production protocols. Given that vaccine manufacturing requires highly regulated, state-of-the-art technologies, it has become increasingly difficult for stakeholders to establish in-house expertise for large-scale manufacturing of vaccines. As a result, vaccine developers have begun outsourcing their manufacturing operations to contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs). Specifically, small and mid-sized players in this sector tend to outsource a substantial proportion of clinical development and commercial-scale manufacturing processes to contract service providers. In addition, even big pharma players, with established in-house capabilities, are gradually entering into long-term business relationships with CMOs in order to optimize resource utilization and manage costs. It is worth highlighting that the contemporary contract services market for vaccines is highly fragmented. Having said that, numerous stakeholders are actively striving to expand their respective service portfolios through substantial acquisition activity. As a result, these CMOs have developed the capabilities to offer end-to-end services, ranging from vaccine development (including preliminary R&D, preclinical studies and clinical trials), to regulatory filings, and commercial scale production. In future, we expect the demand for core competencies to continue to drive sponsor companies to rely on contract service providers for various aspects of product development and manufacturing.

The cancer therapeutics market is considered to be one of the most active segments within the pharmaceutical industry. In the past five years, the USFDA has approved more than 100 drugs for the treatment of different types of cancer. However, there is still a pressing need for more specific and potent drugs / therapies to combat this complex, life threatening clinical condition. It is also worth highlighting that, in the coming years, the number of cancer patients is anticipated to increase substantially along with the growing global population. According to the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), close to 17 million new cases of cancer were diagnosed in 2018, worldwide. By 2040, it is estimated that the aforementioned number is likely to grow to 27.5 million. In fact, the global cancer burden is anticipated to increase by 70% in the next 20 years. Among the current initiatives focused on developing targeted anti-cancer therapies, T-cell therapies (specifically CAR-T, TCR and TIL therapies) have emerged as a promising option owing to their capability to eradicate tumor cells from the body with minimal treatment-related side effects. These adoptive T-cell therapies (ACT) are based on the principle of harnessing the innate potential of the immune system to target and destroy diseased cells. With the recent approval of KYMRIAH® (Novartis) and YESCARTA® (Gilead Sciences) for the treatment of CD19-positive relapsed / refractory leukemias and lymphomas, such ACTs have become a part of mainstream healthcare solutions. Encouraging clinical trial results and therapeutic response rates achieved across various hematological cancers and solid tumors have further inspired research groups to focus their efforts on the development of these novel therapies. So far, more than 150 academic and research institutes across the globe have made significant contributions to this field, mostly by convening the initial research on potential therapy candidates. In fact, multiple collaborations have been inked in the past decade between various therapy developers and academic / research institutes to advance the development of various pipeline candidates. The ongoing research activity in this field has also led to the discovery of several novel molecular targets. Further research and characterization of the aforementioned targets have significantly strengthened the research pipelines of companies engaged in this market. Driven by the availability of innovative technology platforms, lucrative funding and encouraging clinical trial results, the T-cell immunotherapies market is poised for success in the long-run as multiple product candidates are expected to be approved over the coming decade.

Clinical trials represent an arduous step in the drug development process and are crucial to understanding the safety and efficacy profiles of novel therapeutic interventions. As these trials are prone to delays, and can even fail altogether, they impose an immense financial pressure on sponsors. Amongst several known challenges, patient recruitment is considered to be one of the rate limiting steps when it comes to getting drugs to the market. It is estimated that 80% of clinical trials do not meet their designated patient enrolment deadlines. In fact, around 37% of research sites fail to meet their subject accrual goals, while more than 10% don’t even enroll a single patient. In addition, retaining patients is also a matter of concern, considering that the approximate dropout rate across clinical studies is around 30%. Delays in product launch, due to inability of the sponsors to recruit / retain patients, are highly common and are estimated to result in an average loss of USD 8 million per day in opportunity costs, for a blockbuster drug. The abovementioned challenges have led several players in the pharmaceutical industry to outsource their patient recruitment-related needs to capable, specialty service providers. Employing contract service providers has been shown to expedite the patient recruitment process. Such service providers employ a variety of outreach methods, such as social media, mobile technologies, electronic health records (EHRs) and real-world evidence (RWE), and, over time, have attained a vital role in the successful conduct of clinical research. Although some big pharma players carry out patient recruitment in-house, the growing complexity of clinical trials and demand for niche patient populations for studies evaluating orphan drugs / personalized medicines is likely to prompt more developer companies to outsource various aspects of their clinical research-related operations in the foreseen future. In fact, the market has recently witnessed the establishment of several partnerships, which include agreements between study sponsors and patient recruitment firms (outsourcing deals) and partnerships between stakeholders aimed to combine their respective services portfolios related to patient recruitment and retention (service alliances). This niche services industry has also witnessed some consolidation as multiple smaller players have been acquired by more established entities, in an effort to expand geographical reach. Scope of the Report The ‘Patient Recruitment and Retention Services, 2019-2030’ report offers a comprehensive study of the current scenario and future potential of the players providing patient enrollment and retention services.

An updated edition is available at the following link View 4th edition Cancer is known to be one of the leading causes of death worldwide, accounting for 0.6 million deaths in 2017 in the US alone. The World Health Organization states that the number of new cancer cases globally is expected to rise by 70% in the coming 20 years. Although cancer therapeutics continue to be one of the most active areas in terms of drug development, there is still a significant unmet need in this domain. Conventional cancer treatments, such as chemotherapy, surgery and radiation therapy, have demonstrated very limited efficacy in late-stage cancers. Specifically, chemotherapy and radiation therapy are also associated with several side effects. Their non-specific nature has severe detrimental effects on the patients’ quality of life. Amidst the current initiatives to develop more targeted anti-cancer therapies, immunotherapy has emerged as a highly potent option to eradicate tumor cells with minimal side effects. It is based on the principle of harnessing the innate potential of the immune system to target and destroy diseased cells. It encompasses several treatment approaches, such as monoclonal antibodies, immune checkpoint inhibitors, therapeutic vaccines, cytokine therapies and cell-based therapies. In recent years, adoptive T-cell therapy (ACT) has emerged as a potent and viable therapeutic intervention. There are certain key characteristics that render T-cells suitable for use as effective therapeutic tools; these include target specificity, adaptability and the capability to retain immunologic memory. Close to 120 academic and research institutes across the globe have made significant contributions to this field, mostly by convening the initial research on potential product candidates. These efforts have built the intellectual framework for the establishment of several start-ups; in fact, during the last five years, over USD 8 billion has been invested by VC firms / other strategic investors. It is also worth highlighting that there have been more than 200 instances of collaborations between industry / academic stakeholders. The ongoing innovation has also led to the discovery of several novel molecular targets, strengthening the research pipelines of various companies engaged in this domain. Encouraged by the recent approval of two CAR-T therapies, namely Kymriah® (Novartis) and Yescarta® (Gilead Sciences), and a robust development pipeline, the T-cell immunotherapy market offers considerable promise to a number of industry stakeholders. Scope of the Report The “T-Cell Immunotherapy Market, 2018-2030 (3rd edition)” report features an extensive study of the current market landscape and the future potential of T-cell immunotherapies (focusing particularly on CAR-T therapies, TCR therapies and TIL therapies).
