Specialty Injectable Generics Market Analysis

The specialty injectable generic market is projected to register a CAGR of 10.2% during the forecast period (2022-2027).

The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted the research and development of other therapies and drugs for medical conditions other than COVID-19. This also impacted the studied market of the specialty injectable generic market around the world. For instance, as per the research study published in April 2020, titled, 'The Consequence of COVID-19 on the Global Supply of Medical Products: Why Indian Generics Matter for the World?', India is the largest manufacturer of generic drugs and Indian firms import almost 70% of their bulk drugs from China, where the production of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and supply chain logistics have taken a big hit due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Potential shortages as a result of export bans in India and China, which are major suppliers of generics, have prompted governments in many countries to consider supply chain self-sufficiency and to issue regulations to prevent shortages in such a crisis. Hence, the COVID-19 pandemic is likely to have a negative impact on the market. However, the market will grow in the upcoming period.

Factors such as the rising prevalence of diseases and the increasing number of patent expirations are expected to increase the market share. In recent times, the burden of chronic diseases, such as cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and arthritis, among others, has increased significantly, which has led to a serious burden on the healthcare expenditure of people.

Specialty injectable generic drugs are not only effective but also cheaper as compared to conventional medicines, and that's why they are gaining popularity among people suffering from chronic diseases, thus, driving growth in the market. According to the article titled' The Patterns of Non-Communicable Disease Multimorbidity in Iran: A Multilevela Analysis' published in February 2020 Non-Communicable Disease multimorbidity affects more young people in low-middle income countries. the mean prevalence was 7.8% in 28 developing countries. Thus, the demand for specialty injectable generic drugs is expected to increase over the period in low- and middle-income countries as NCDs are more prevalent in these countries, and they cannot afford costly drugs, but specialty injectable generic drugs are cheap, and that's why its consumption is expected to increase over the forecast period, and the market is expected to grow.

According to the Patented Medicine Prices Review Board report 2020, the average price of generic medicines in Canada has dropped substantially by 60% relative to price levels. The decrease in prices is one of the key factors for the growth of the market, as low-price medicines are most accessible to the end-users. Due to lower costs, specialty injectable generic medicines are likely to be preferred, which would increase the growth of the market. Additionally, In August 2020, the regulatory agency in Mexico (COFEPRIS) put forward new operating rules for the approval of generic drugs in Mexico, based on the following guidelines: COFEPRIS will have a special procedures window for the generic pharmaceutical products. These applications for approvals of generics could be filed the day after the granting of the patent related to the innovative medicine. The respective applications would be decided at any time prior to the expiration of the patent. If the registration or approval is given, COFEPRIS will provide a provisional official communication, which would be exchanged for the definitive sanitary registration or approval, the day after the expiration of the validity of the patent.

Furthermore, the launch of injectable generic drugs is anticipated to drive the segment growth over the forecast period. For instance, in October 2021, Adalvo completed a mandatory requirement for marketing authorization in the European Union for its generic version of Firazyr (icatibant injection), which is approved for acute attacks in adults with hereditary angioedema (HAE). This is anticipated to increase the demand for generic injectables in the upcoming future. Hence, the abovementioned factors are likely to increase market growth in the upcoming future.

However, the complex development process of specialty generics is likely to hinder the market growth.

Specialty Injectable Generics Market Trends

This section covers the major market trends shaping the Specialty Injectable Generics Market according to our research experts:

Oncology is Expected to Hold a Significant Market Share Over the Forecast Period

The factors proliferating the growth of the oncology segment are the growing burden of cancer worldwide, the increasing need for effective therapeutic drugs to treat cancer as well as increasing focus of pharmaceutical companies on developing effective drugs.

As per the GLOBOCAN 2020, in 2020, there were 19.3 million estimated new cancer cases worldwide, and the number is estimated to reach 30.2 million by the year 2040. Thus, the anticipated increase in the burden of cancer is a major factor contributing to the rising demand for generic drugs, thereby boosting the market growth. Also, as per th article titled, 'Generic Anticancer Drugs of the Jan Aushadhi Scheme in India and Their Branded Counterparts: The First Cost Comparison Study,' published in November 2021 replacing generic anticancer drugs can result in substantial cost savings and benefit the patient requiring curative chemotherapy for breast cancer. Thus, there is a high demand for generic anticancer drugs and will continue to remain high in the coming period as well.

Product launches are another factor in the growth of the market. For instance, in August 2020, Xiromed LLC launched Irinotecan Injection USP, 20mg/mL is a generic equivalent to Camptosar and is available in a 2mL and 5mL single-dose vial. Camptosar is a medication used to treat colon cancer and small cell lung cancer.

Thus, the aforementioned factors are likely to drive the growth of the segment during the forecast period.

North America is Expected to Dominate the Market Over the Forecast Period

The North American specialty injectable generics market is expected to grow over the forecast period owing to the high burden of chronic diseases in the country coupled with the rising geriatric population and new product launches by the key market players in the country. For instance, as per the National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention(CDC) and Health Promotion (January 2021), 6 in 10 adults in the United States have a chronic disease, and 4 in 10 adults have two or more chronic diseases, and these conditions are posing around USD 3.8 trillion of healthcare costs on the country's healthcare system every year and as generic drugs are a lot cheaper than other prescribed drugs. Hence, the healthcare expenditure can be significantly reduced by the wide adoption of generic drugs in the country, and that is expected to have a significant impact on the growth of the studied market.

According to the research published in August 2020 by the Pharmaceuticals Export Promotion Council of India titled "Mexico Pharma Market & Regulatory Report," stated that as one of the largest consumers of generic medicines in the world, Mexico maintains a significant presence of generic drug manufacturers, including Israel-based Teva, United States-based Mylan, Ireland-based Perrigo and Genomma Lab, a domestic company. In upcoming years, the growing consumer demand for more affordable medicines will contribute to the country's increasing rates of specialty injectable generics consumption.

Product launches are another factor in the growth of the market. For instance, in January 2021, Sandoz, a global leader in generic and biosimilar medicines, launched a generic Icatibant injection pre-filled syringe to treat acute attacks of rare disease hereditary angioedema (HAE) in adults 18 years and older in the United States.

Hence, the abovementioned factors are likely to increase market growth in the coming future.
