DUBLIN, Sept. 10, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --

The "China CDMO (Contract Development & Manufacturing Organization) Industry Research Report, 2018-2021" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

In 2017, China invested approximately US $13.2 billion in medical R&D, accounting for 8.9 percent of the total global medical R&D investment in the same period.

China's pharmaceutical R&D industry started late, with insufficient technical capacity and fewer investment at the initial stage of development. However, it has achieved rapid development in recent years and has great room for improvement. With the improvement of Chinese drug firms' R&D strength and the strengthening of government control of generic drugs, such as development of the generic consistency evaluation, the clinical trial data of audits and inspections, etc., the Chinese pharmaceutical R&D spending will continue to increase. China's pharmaceutical R&D spending is expected to reach US $29.2 billion in 2021, accounting for the total amount of the global pharmaceutical R&D spending will rise to 18.3%.

The global market for drug development services reached about US $71.7 billion in 2017.At a time when the cost of developing new drugs is high and generic competition is fierce around the world, pharmaceutical companies are increasingly inclined to outsource drug development to speed up the development of new drugs. The global market for drug development services is expected to grow to US $102.8 billion by 2021.

Compared with the global pharmaceutical development service market, the volume of China's pharmaceutical development service market is small, but the growth is fast. In 2017, China's drug development services market size reached approximately US $9.2 billion, and is expected to increase by 2021 to $27.8 billion.

CDMO market is developing rapidly in recent years, it is a highly fragmented industry, full of market competition. The world's leading CDMO company mainly include catalent, patheon, Lonza, BI, Jubilant, top CDMO enterprises currently accounts for the overall market share of about 18%.

In recent years, along with the great progress of China and India in talent cultivation, pharmaceutical technology research, especially in China, which has complete infrastructure, adequate raw material supply and significant operating cost advantage, these areas gradually become the CDMO emerging markets. Currently the CDMO business is transforming from developed markets to emerging markets, the CDMO market share of Europe and the United State has decreased from 75% in 2010 to 67% at present. Countries such as China and India has improved their market share from 10% to 15% at present, with China's market share accounted for about 8%.

Similar to the international market competition, China's CDMO overall market concentration is low at present, part of the CDMO players with comprehensive competitiveness such as Asymchem, STA Pharmaceutical, WuXi Biologics and Porton Fine Chemicals etc., has higher market share., but there is still no absolute leading enterprises.
