Advanced drug delivery systems are increasingly being used for targeted and controlled release of novel molecules in tissues and cells to optimize their potential benefits for patients.
Major Advantages Offered by Advanced Drug Delivery Systems Fuels the Advanced Drug Delivery CDMO Market Growth
Advanced drug delivery systems have emerged as an easy and accurate method of delivering the drug to a specific site. These systems offer many advantages over traditional systems such as targeted and controlled release of new molecules to sites, consistent absorption of the drug, no requirement of frequent dosing, reduced variability in systemic drug concentrations, and reduction in toxic metabolites. Advanced drug delivery systems optimize drug performance and help deliver superior outcomes, which in turn lead has led to increased demand for advanced drug delivery CDMOs.
“Advanced drug delivery CDMOs will play a pivotal role in advancing the science of drug delivery. The advanced drug delivery technologies will make medicines that are easier to use, and require less frequent dosing, which in turn will enable patients to spend less time managing their diseases.”-Senior Scientist, Advanced Drug Delivery CDMO, U.S.A
