LIPID NANOPARTICLE MANUFACTURING MARKET: GROWTH AND TRENDS
Over the past few decades, the pharmaceutical industry has witnessed significant growth. This is evident from the continuously growing pipeline of drug candidates that have been marketed or are being evaluated across several development stages. However, low drug solubility / permeability is one of the primary concerns associated with certain pharmacological products. Therefore, players engaged in the pharmaceutical domain are actively trying to identify ways to improve / augment physiochemical properties and drug-like behavior of pharmacological products. Amidst other alternatives, the use of lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) has garnered the attention of many drug developers. This can be attributed to the great versatility of LNPs, in terms of structure and functionality, as well as the ability to enhance the solubility and bioavailability of poorly water-soluble drugs.
Considering the routine operations-related and technical challenges, an increased number of pharmaceutical companies have demonstrated the preference to outsource their respective LNP production operations to specialized service providers. There are numerous benefits of engaging contract manufacturing firms for LNP manufacturing, such as access to new technologies (available with the service provider), larger capacities and greater operational flexibility. As a result, many of the companies are actively trying to consolidate their presence in this field, by entering into strategic alliances to broaden their respective service portfolios and LNP manufacturing capabilities. Given the benefits of using LNPs to improve drug-like properties, the demand for high quality LNPs nanoparticles is likely to drive considerable growth within the specialty contract manufacturing market in the coming years.
