Global Protein Therapeutics Market Dominated by Monoclonal Antibodies

11-Apr-2008

According to the market research report "Global Protein Therapeutics Market Analysis", the Protein Therapeutic Market was valued in excess of US$ 57 Billion in 2006 and according to projections, it would grow at a CAGR 12.83% till 2010 The market is presently dominated by monoclonal antibodies and with double-digit growth projected for future, the segment is expected to bolster its dominant position. insulin, Interferon Beta, G-CSF and coagulation factors are also exhibiting double-digit growth rates.

One of the biggest opportunity areas in the Protein Therapeutics Market will be in the field of Biogenerics, which is expected to create a multi-billion dollar market in future.

The key findings of the market report include:

- US is the largest market for therapeutic proteins in the world followed by Europe and Japan.

- Insurance reimbursement is a major factor that decides the success of protein therapeutics.

- Growth in protein therapeutic market will create new opportunities for the drug discovery Contract Research Organizations (CROs).

- High expenditure on R&D and high rate of failure in phase-3 clinical trials remains a major challenge for the global protein therapeutics market.

- Until recently, protein therapeutics faced little generic threat; however, this is likely to change in future with regulatory pathways for the approval of generics already present in Europe and Asia and to be introduced in US by 2009.
