The Asia-Pacific contract research organization market was valued at US$ 8,112.00 million in 2020 and it is projected to reach US$ 18,399.87 million by 2028; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 11.2% during 2021–2028.
Contract research organization (CRO) provides support services to the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and medical device companies throughout the development of the product. Pharmaceutical& biotechnology companies and the medical device industry require various testing services such as preclinical services, clinical research services, analytical testing services, bioanalytical testing services, and regulatory services. CROs are specifically designed to perform these testing services to reduce the in-house cost and time of the companies, required to conduct the extensive range of testing services to comply with the national and international regulatory standards.
The Asian continent appears to be a rapidly growing destination for conduction of cost-effective clinical trials. Moreover, the ease of regulatory compliance and presence of top clinical institutions further contributes to Asia-Pacific becoming the new choice of destination for conduction of clinical trials. Outsourcing is an integral part of the biopharmaceutical industry primarily during the clinical phases of the research and development (R&D). The rising number of clinical trials in the region also attributes to the presence and easy access of treatment-naïve patient pool.
The high incidence of diseases such as hepatitis, stroke, and lung cancer make Asia-Pacific a promising destination for conduction of clinical trials. According to a World Health Organization (WHO) database study, the total number of registered clinical trials in the Asia Pacific between 2009 and 2018 were reported to be more than 125,000. This implies a 7-fold increase in the total number of clinical trials in Asian region. The report also suggests that Japan conducted highest number of clinical trials, which is approximately 30.8% of the total trials held in the region. The annual average increase in the number of clinical trials in Asia-Pacific is greater than the US, Canada, and EU countries. According to a report published by PubMed in September 2019, Iran recorded the highest annual increase in the number of clinical trials in Asia with 41% increase in 2019 as compared to 2018. Thus, the increasing number of clinical trials in the region implies the increasing demand for outsourcing research and development activities thereby responsible for the growth of the contract research organization (CROs) market in Asia-Pacific during the forecast years.
