The global small molecule CDMO market size is expected to reach USD 108.46 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 7.1% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new study by Grand View Research, Inc. Exploration of innovative technologies in small molecule drug development, expansion of pharmaceutical pipelines with a focus on small molecule therapeutics, growing reliance on contract development and manufacturing organizations (CDMOs) for cost-effective and specialized manufacturing services, regulatory frameworks supporting efficient drug development & manufacturing processes, and CDMOs expanding manufacturing capacities to meet industry demands are few of the factors supporting market growth. For pharmaceutical companies, innovation and easy access to clinics are critical factors.
Small-scale companies and specialty pharmaceutical players increasingly rely on delivering these important requirements within the industry. Many CDMOs establish themselves as one-stop-shop companies. The one-stop-shop service model is where a CDMO offers everything, from active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) to dosage form and early development to commercialization. To provide these services, a CDMO must have a wide range of enabling technologies and specialized handling capabilities that help address specific problem statements. A significant number of CDMOs across the globe providing all research, development, and manufacturing services is expected to support market growth. The high prevalence of chronic ailments is another considerable factor supporting the development of novel small molecule-based therapeutics, thus boosting CDMO services demand.
The International Diabetes Federation (IDF) states that the incidence of diabetes is rising gradually in the country. It states that in 2022, over 140 million people in China had diabetes, and 174.4 million are expected to be diagnosed by 2030. High consumption of unhealthy fats and a sedentary lifestyle are major factors contributing to the high incidence of diabetes. The growing burden of diabetes is expected to drive CDMO services demand in the country. Substantial investment in pharmaceutical R&D is a significant driver bolstering industry growth. As pharmaceutical companies intensify their efforts in discovering & developing small molecule therapeutics, there is a corresponding rise in demand for CDMO services. These services are crucial in the efficient & cost-effective development & manufacturing of small-molecule drugs.
