Injectables constitute one of the fastest growing segments in the pharmaceuticals space. Many drugs, including biologics, are going off patent in next 3 or 4 years, which will lead to an increase in the demand for generics and biosimilar injectables. The increase in onshoring and nearshoring of biopharmaceutical products for COVID-19 and next-generation biologics has significantly increased the demand for aseptic fill-and-finish capacity and capabilities to meet the demand from various regions. All these factors have made sterile injectable drug product services outsourcing the most lucrative opportunity for contract development and manufacturing companies (CDMO)s. The sterile injectable outsourcing market is set to expand at a CAGR of 9.4%% from 2021 to 2026.
