Global Drug Discovery Services Market Overview

Drug discovery is the method of new drug designing. Random screening, molecular manipulation, drug metabolites, molecular designing, and serendipity are the most common methods employed for drug discovery. Drug discovery services are mainly developed to lower the costs and timelines of drug discovery. In biotechnology, pharmacology, and medicine, the procedure of drug discovery is applicable to design and discover new medications. Drug discovery services are an extremely important tool extensively used in forensics, disaster victim identification, paternity testing, and anthropology with DNA analysis. The drug target recognition, drug discovery selection, and drug design based on the fragment, lead compound recognition, and lead optimization form the core of drug discovery services.

Global Drug Discovery Services Market Dynamics

Major pharmaceutical companies involved in drug discovery and services are shifting their focus on attaining a significant position in developing countries such as India, China, Brazil, and Mexico in order to enlarge their business strategies and explore new markets. Developing nations in Asia Pacific are launching early-stage research programs, in order to meet the specific medical requirements of patients in the region. This is likely to drive the global drug discovery services market growth.

Lack of trained professionals

In drug discovery services is suffering from shortage of skilled staff. This shortage affects contract research organizations and biotechnological and pharmaceutical companies. There are very less number of organizations and institutions that offer training in drug discovery and informatics services all over the world. Therefore, presence of trained professionals is also low. These factors are likely to limit the drug discovery services market over the forecast period.

Global Drug Discovery Services Market Key Issues Addressed

  • In May 2024, Enzene Launched Drug Discovery Services Division. Enzene Biosciences, a global CDMO announces the launch of a new Drug Discovery Division. The drug discovery division further expands the CDMOs breadth of services to the biotech industry and complements its fully-connected continuous manufacturing platform (EnzeneX)-equipped biologics manufacturing site, which will open later this summer in the U.S.
  • In April 2024, Flipping the drug development industry on its head. One CRO dared to question the status quo and the results are undeniable. The development of new medication by biotech and pharmaceutical companies, from target identification to marketing approval, is a time-consuming process with timelines extending to 12 years or more. Hence why sponsors are opting to outsource research and development (R&D) of their novel drug products to contract research organizations (CROs).
  • In December 2023, Merck Launched First Ever AI Solution to Integrate Drug Discovery and Synthesis. The system utilizes AI, machine learning, and computer-aided drug design to enhance drug success rates, screen compounds from over 60 billion targets, evaluate synthesis routes, and recommend reagents and building blocks.
