The U.S. pharmaceutical sterility testing market size is anticipated to reach USD 1.18 billion by 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is expected to expand at a CAGR of 10.9% from 2022 to 2030. Supportive government investment in the healthcare industry, increasing R&D activities, and growing demand for new therapeutics in the country are the key factors driving the growth. The majority of clinical trials worldwide are performed in the U.S. alone.
According to ClinicalTrials.gov, as of October 2022, over 31% of global clinical trials were registered in the U.S. alone. This is due to the significant number of initiatives taken by public organizations in the country to support R&D activities. The presence of technologically advanced infrastructure and an increase in R&D investment by pharmaceutical companies are also supporting clinical trials in the country. This is expected to improve the number of new medications and medical devices in the coming years in the U.S. and support the market in the post-pandemic period.
The government is keen on bringing down healthcare costs, which is anticipated to encourage the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to promote the fast approval of generic pharmaceuticals. Faster approvals drive the need for newer sterility testing methods. This is anticipated to encourage market participants to spend more on sterility solutions and, in turn, expand the market. With an increasing demand for drugs, companies are launching new drugs with different routes of administration, dosage, and indication. These launches require thorough sterility testing and, thus, are anticipated to drive the industry's growth.
The majority of pharmaceutical companies, biopharmaceutical companies, CROs, and CMOs are headquartered in the U.S. Companies such as Catalent, Inc., Pfizer Inc., AbbVie, Merck; Co. Johnson & Johnson, and Abbott are located in the U.S. The high number of pharmaceutical companies, biopharmaceutical companies, CMOs, and CROs located in the U.S. contributes to the high demand for sterility testing of pharmaceuticals, thus supporting the market growth.
The country suffers from a high burden of cancer. Due to this, government-based research institutes in the U.S. are constantly trying to improve cancer research funding in the country. For instance, in May 2022, the American Institute of Cancer Research stated that it had funded more than USD 110 million in cancer research in 2022, and it intends to fund more in the coming years to reduce the burden of cancer. Such initiatives are expected to increase the number of new medications for cancer in the coming years, thus increasing the demand for sterility testing of cancer drugs in the post-pandemic period.
