The Biologics segment is the most lucrative in the global biopharmaceutical CMO market.

Based on type, the market for biopharmaceutical CMO is segmented into Biologics and biosimilars. Among these types, the biologics segment is the most dominating in the global biopharmaceutical CMO market.

The biologics segment is further categorized into Vaccines, monoclonal antibodies (MABs), recombinant proteins, antisense, RNAi, & molecular therapy, and others.

The use of biologics is considered to be much more effective and safer. The growing interests of the pharma developers in the biologics field and rising investment in this field have sophistically contributed to this segment’s growth.

On the other hand, biosimilars are expected to grow at a promising rate as they provide low-cost solutions and may be used as an alternative to biologics. However, the lack of reliability and safety issues associated with this segment may restrict its growth of this segment.

By Source Analysis

The Mammalian Segment Is Estimated To Hold a Significant Market Share

Based on the source, the market for biopharmaceutical CMO is segmented into mammalian and non-mammalian. Among these types, the mammalian segment is estimated to hold the highest market share in the forecasted period.

The mammalian cell line has been extensively used to develop viral vaccines and diagnostics in recent years, generating huge revenue for this segment. On the other hand, the non-mammalian segment is expected to gain significant adhesion owing to its increasing use in manufacturing bio-therapeutics such as enzymes, hormones, cytokines, and antibodies.

By Service Analysis

The Manufacturing Segment Is a Significant Market Shareholder

Based on the service, the market for biopharmaceutical CMO is segmented into manufacturing, fill & finish operations, analytical & Q.C. studies, and packaging. Among these types, the manufacturing segment is a significant market share holder.

The manufacturing segment is further categorized into upstream and downstream. Biopharmaceutical development, biological assay design, and commercialization CMOs produce many US-approved products. The emergence of small and midsized biopharmaceutical companies without the means to build well-furnished facilities is challenging.

Using single-use bioreactors, continuous purification processing, disposable plastic containers, and real-time quality analysis has effectively allowed the CMOs to meet the increasing service demand for biologics production. Several companies are investing in biosimilar development to outperform earlier in-class innovator drugs’ safety, efficacy, disposition, or cost. It has increased the competition amongst innovator manufacturers, which will likely benefit the CMO.
