How are Contract Manufacturing Organizations (CMOs) Contributing Towards Market Growth?

Increasing production of monoclonal antibodies in contract manufacturing organizations is expected to drive revenue growth for the overall protein A resins market over the forecast period. The trend for manufacturing biologics in CMOs started in the 1980s. Over the last few years, the trend in CMOs has changed drastically, shifting from manufacturing blockbuster drugs to specialist care drugs, including monoclonal antibodies.

Very few companies have in-house manufacturing capabilities. The management of the supply chain adds to the complexity of manufacturing processes. The establishment of such high-containment biologic facilities requires higher investment, which can be a great financial risk. Thus, contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs) are outsourced to develop and produce monoclonal antibodies, driven by the increasing need for biotechnology companies that require unique development expertise and facilities.

Contract manufacturing organizations are expected to play an important role in the production of active pharmaceutical ingredients and biologics, including monoclonal antibodies, thereby opening up new revenue pockets in the protein A resins.

What are the Surfacing Opportunities for Market Players?

The increasing prevalence of cancer is expected to increase the production of monoclonal antibodies for use in therapeutic areas. The potential application of monoclonal antibodies in diagnosing and treating various cancer types has been widely accepted. Each cancer type requires a unique treatment. Thus, it is expected to provide opportunities for market players by driving sales of protein A resin over the forecast period.

Increasing the use of monoclonal antibodies in various therapeutic areas owing to their flexibility and specificity and the need for protein A resin is expected to drive the sales of protein A resins over the forecast period.

Many pharmaceutical and biotechnological companies are researching and developing (R&D) on monoclonal antibodies to find new therapeutic areas. Companies are already manufacturing monoclonal antibody products for therapeutic areas such as cardiovascular, immune therapy, microbial infections, inflammatory disorders, Crohn's disease, transplants, and certain types of cancer such as leukemia and breast cancer.

The biologics segment in the life sciences industry has gained acceptance by biotechnology and other research institutes for their areas of research, as it has shown promising results as well as low side effects in the treatment of different diseases, such as cancer, autoimmune diseases, and certain genetic conditions.

Biologic therapies, being more target-mediated than non-biologic treatments, are also used as a first-line treatment in some cancer cases. Biologics is the fastest-growing segment in the healthcare industry, with monoclonal antibodies being the key product.

The growing biologics segment is thus expected to offer lucrative growth opportunities for protein A resin manufacturers in the near future.

2018 to 2022 Protein A Resins Demand Outlook Compared to 2023 to 2033 Forecast

According to Future Market Insights (FMI), the sales of protein A resins have grown at a CAGR of nearly 4.8% between 2018 and 2022. Increasing research on monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), CMO's role in mAbs manufacturing, wide therapeutic application of mAbs, production of next-generation protein A resins overcoming ligand leaching issues, and favorable government policies and funding are expected to drive the sales of protein A resins and also provides a positive impetus on the market growth.

Manufacturers are financing research and development activities to come about advanced protein A chromatography resins or their alternatives to address the high cost and operational bottlenecks associated with it. Followed by mergers, acquisitions, collaborations, and product launches through extensive research and development for strengthening product portfolios are the key strategies adopted by manufacturers to increase their revenue. Adopting these strategies helped the companies spread their regional presence and diversify their product offerings.

For instance, in September 2021, Purolite Life Sciences announced the commercialization of two novel next-generation chromatography resins, Praesto Jetted A50 HipH, and Praesto® Jetted (dT)18-DVB, in association with Repligen.

In June 2021, Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. collaborated with Newomics, a commercial-stage biotechnology company, to develop a novel native liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC−MS) platform which can support various LC−MS applications. The agreement is expected to help improve the throughput and robustness of microflow LC-MS in proteomics and biopharmaceutical applications.

Future Market Insights expects the protein A resins market to register a CAGR of 8.1% by the end of 2033. The growth is attributed to the rise in research and development activities for innovative technology development. Leading companies actively participate in approval, partnership, collaboration, merger, and acquisitions to expand their market presence and strengthen product portfolios.
