The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.

Key Small Molecule API Market Driver

India and China are rapidly evolving as viable sources for key intermediates and bulk actives. Considering the presence of developed infrastructure and growing economic development, India and China have started producing high-quality small-molecule active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and drug intermediates for regulated markets. Also, innovators have started focusing on these countries for outsourcing late-stage intermediates, and a few global manufacturers have formed joint ventures with local small-molecule API manufacturers.

Furthermore, it was observed that the innovators are increasingly partnering with local API manufacturers for high-quality bulk manufacturing activities, particularly with those in developing countries, owing to low development and production costs. On average, the manufacturing cost of APIs for generic oral solids, such as tablets and capsules, accounts for approximately 40%-50% of the production cost. In a highly competitive market, where the ability to offer a low price is vital, generic drug manufacturers seek competitive advantages by outsourcing bulk drug manufacturing activities to reliable small-molecule API manufacturers in developing countries that can deliver small-molecule active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) at a low cost. This is expected to drive the growth of the market during the forecast period. 

Key Small Molecule API Market Challenge

Meeting small-molecule API GMP is mandatory wherever the small-molecule API production or consumption is expected to comply with the ICH guidelines. Non-adherence to these guidelines might restrict the entry of small-molecule API in the regulated markets, thereby causing significant loss to small-molecule API manufacturers. An increase in the general WLs issued by the US FDA to small-molecule API manufacturers has led these manufacturers to improve their API manufacturing facilities and adherence to the GMP protocol. This, in turn, requires an increased investment of time, labor, and continuous availability of funds to upgrade the manufacturing facilities as per the validated GMP protocol, thus making it difficult to achieve economies of scale by small-molecule API manufacturers under such a stringent regulatory framework. Failure to adhere to the validated GMP protocol may restrict the entry of bulk actives into the regulated market, thus exposing API manufacturers to huge financial losses. This discourages manufacturers from venturing into the API industry, thereby limiting the growth prospects of the small molecule API market.

This small molecule API market analysis report also provides detailed information on other upcoming trends and challenges that will have a far-reaching effect on the market growth. The actionable insights on the trends and challenges will help companies evaluate and develop growth strategies for 2022-2026.
