SURVEY DETAILS

TARGET POPULATION

For this Network Survey, GLG surveyed 90 global pharma and biotech CDMO decision makers from US, EU and APAC.

What will you learn from this survey?

  • Respondents evaluated key players in large molecule CDMOs such as Lonza, Catalent, Samsung Biologics, and Wuxi Biologics, and trending players in small molecule CDMOs such as Siegfried, Syngene, Wuxi Apptec, and Piramal.
  • The survey also investigated the current spending trends on CDMOs and the outlook for service demand by product types (including small molecule, biologics, vaccines, peptides, and CGT), views on key CDMOs’ service quality and operational stability.
  • Lastly, the research looked at whether or not the evaluation criteria for selecting CDMO partners have changed considering the macro environment (including geopolitical risk, recent legislation, global economic downturn, and increasing competitive dynamics).

Examples of findings:

  • Peptides are among the most outsourced products, over four-in-ten experts declared to be outsourcing around 75% to 100% of their production to CDMOs, followed by biologics drug substance with one-third outsourcing the same proportion.
  • Six-in-ten respondents declared that CDMOs’ quality has increased over the last 5 years, however, close to one-in-five reported that such quality has significantly increased.
  • Around three-in-five experts anticipate that prices will become somewhat higher in the following 1 to 5 years, however, nearly one-in-five respondents foresee significantly higher pricing for the next 3 to 5 years.
