Drug-device combinations refer to therapeutic and diagnostic products that combine a medical device with a drug, facilitating localized drug administration, precise drug targeting, and personalized therapy. These combinations create a unified entity, physically and chemically, packaged together in a single package. Drug-device combinations play a crucial role in clinical development, enabling the delivery of drugs to specific locations in the body.
The primary types of drug-device combination products include auto-injectors, microneedle patches, digital pills, smart inhalers, drug delivery hydrogels, drug-eluting lenses, and other products. These products find applications in various medical fields such as orthopedic diseases, respiratory diseases, diabetes, oncology, cardiovascular diseases, among others. The end users of drug-device combination products include clinics, hospitals, home care settings, ambulatory care centers, and others. These products are distributed through direct tenders, retail sales, and other distribution channels.

The drug-device combination market is witnessing substantial growth driven by the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases. Chronic diseases, persisting for a year or longer and requiring ongoing medical care, include conditions like heart disease and diabetes. Drug-device combinations, encompassing therapeutic and diagnostic products, play a pivotal role in effectively treating individuals with chronic diseases. As per the World Health Organization's report, the global incidence of diabetes surpassed 420 million in 2022, with projections indicating a rise to 578 million by 2030 and 700 million by 2045. This escalating prevalence underscores the critical role of drug-device combinations in managing chronic diseases, thereby propelling the growth of the market.
An increase in casualties due to accidents is anticipated to drive the growth of the drug-device combination market in the future. Accidents refer to unexpected events or unplanned incidents that result in unintended harm, damage, injury, or loss, often arising from a mix of factors such as human error, negligence, environmental conditions, or mechanical failure. Drug-device combinations are essential in managing and preventing accidents by providing targeted medical interventions and improving patient safety. For example, in May 2024, Transport Canada, a government agency in Canada, reported that motor vehicle fatalities reached 1,931 in 2022, representing a 6.0% increase from the previous year's total of 1,821, and marking the second highest figure recorded in the past decade. Consequently, the rise in casualties resulting from accidents is fueling the drug-device combination market.
Major companies in the drug combination device market are developing innovative products like Trelegy Ellipta to maintain their market position. Trelegy Ellipta is an inhaler designed to deliver a specific dosage of medication directly to the lungs and is recognized as the first single-inhaler triple therapy. For example, in April 2022, GSK, a UK-based pharmaceutical and biotechnology company, introduced Trelegy Ellipta. This inhaler is a compact and portable device used to treat chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma. Ellipta inhalers can accommodate up to three different types of drugs in foil packaging for combination therapy. Trelegy Ellipta is a drug combination device that features three active ingredients: fluticasone furoate, umeclidinium, and vilanterol. It enhances patient management of respiratory conditions through its integrated delivery system.
Major companies in the drug-device combination market are introducing innovative products such as the G-Lasta Subcutaneous Injection 3.6 mg BodyPod to simplify the administration process. The G-Lasta Subcutaneous Injection 3.6 mg BodyPod is a drug-device combination that includes an automated injection device and G-Lasta (pegfilgrastim), a medication given to patients undergoing chemotherapy to reduce the occurrence of febrile neutropenia. For instance, in December 2022, Terumo Corporation, a Japan-based medical device company, collaborated with Kyowa Kirin, a Japan-based pharmaceutical company, to launch the G-Lasta Subcutaneous Injection 3.6 mg BodyPod. G-Lasta is utilized during chemotherapy to decrease the incidence of febrile neutropenia. The automated injection device is connected at the hospital on the day of chemotherapy and automatically administers the drug approximately 27 hours later. This feature eliminates the need for an extra outpatient visit, thereby easing the burden on patients.
