China Drug Delivery Devices Market Size & Share Analysis - Growth Trends & Forecasts (2024 - 2029)

China Drug Delivery Devices Market Analysis

The China Drug Delivery Devices Market is expected to register a CAGR of 9.21% during the forecast period.

The major factors contributing to the growth of the Chinese drug delivery devices market are the growing burden of chronic diseases such as cerebrovascular diseases, cancer, chronic respiratory diseases, and diabetes, as well as the technological advancements in drug delivery devices. Due to the rising burden of chronic diseases, drug delivery systems are being frequently used to enhance patient health and treatment outcomes. For instance, as per the data published by the International Agency for Research on Cancer in February 2024, the estimated number of new cancer cases in China was 4.82 million in 2022, which is expected to reach 5.13 million by 2025. There is a gradual rise in the incidence of cancer in China, which is expected to increase demand for delivery devices such as prefilled syringes and autoinjectors during the forecast period.

Furthermore, training on drug delivery device usage is expected to increase the use of these devices in hospitals, which is expected to drive market growth over the forecast period. For instance, in August 2023, Dongguan Songshan Lake Donghua Hospital stated that it had started a new technology training course for upper arm implantable drug delivery devices in Dongguan. This initiative is expected to increase the number of trained staff in hospitals, which may increase the usage of these devices and boost market growth over the forecast period.

The strategic activities of the market players, such as product launches, mergers and acquisitions, and partnerships, are expected to boost the market's growth over the forecast period. For instance, in January 2024, Suzhou Saiwei Biotechnology Co. Ltd signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Borri Pharmaceuticals. With this agreement, the two companies cooperate on the production and supply of automatic injection pens, which is expected to increase the availability of these drug delivery devices, thereby boosting the market growth over the forecast period.

Thus, all the factors above, such as the rising prevalence of chronic diseases and strategic activities by market players, are expected to boost the market growth over the forecast period. However, the high development cost for drug delivery devices is expected to restrain market growth over the forecast period.
