The anticipated rise in chronic conditions is poised to drive the expansion of the advanced drug delivery systems market. Chronic conditions, persisting for a year or longer and necessitating ongoing medical care, are attributed to various risk behaviors such as tobacco use, exposure to secondhand smoke, poor nutrition, physical inactivity, and excessive alcohol use. Advanced drug delivery systems play a crucial role in precisely delivering therapeutic agents to specific sites affected by chronic conditions, enhancing drug effectiveness, and minimizing side effects. For example, as per May 2023 data from The United Nations (UN), chronic diseases account for seven out of 10 deaths in the US, causing over 1.7 million fatalities annually. Consequently, the increasing prevalence of chronic conditions underpins the growth of the advanced drug delivery systems market.

The shifting trend towards personalized medicine is anticipated to fuel the advancement of the advanced drug delivery systems market. Personalized medicine, also known as precision medicine, considers individual differences in genes, environments, and lifestyles for tailored medical care. Advanced drug delivery systems are instrumental in directing drugs precisely to diseased cells or tissues, reducing exposure to healthy organs and minimizing side effects. In February 2023, according to the Personalized Medicine Coalition, personalized drugs constituted 34% of new pharmaceuticals approved by the US Food and Drug Administration in 2022, marking a significant increase from the previous eight years. Therefore, the growing inclination towards personalized medicine is a driving force for the advanced drug delivery systems market.

Technological advancements represent a prominent trend in the advanced drug delivery systems market, with major companies embracing new technologies to maintain their market positions. In June 2023, Shilpa Medicare Limited, an India-based manufacturer and supplier of API and formulations, introduced Molshil, the world's first oral thin film formulation of a pediatric dose of paracetamol. This innovative paracetamol formulation boasts high palatability, ease of administration, and eliminates some disadvantages associated with pediatric formulations.

Major companies in the advanced drug delivery systems market are prioritizing strategic partnerships, such as those focused on indigenous drug delivery systems, to enhance efficacy and accessibility. These collaborations emphasize innovation and streamlined development processes. An indigenous drug delivery system leverages local resources and traditional knowledge to effectively administer therapeutic agents, prioritizing biocompatibility and cultural relevance, which can improve health outcomes in specific populations. For example, in June 2022, Gufic Biosciences, an India-based pharmaceutical company, introduced a Dual Chamber Bag (DCB). This system enhances drug delivery by ensuring safety and stability through a sterile, user-friendly design that reduces the risk of contamination and dosing errors. It also promotes indigenous production, making healthcare more affordable while improving the efficacy of reconstituted medications.

In May 2022, Halozyme Therapeutics Inc., a US-based biopharmaceutical company, acquired Antares Pharma Inc., a US-based specialty pharmaceutical firm. Through this acquisition, Halozyme aims to strengthen its position as a top drug delivery firm, expanding its approach to covering specialized goods with its best-in-class auto-injector technology and specialty commercial business.

Major companies operating in the advanced drug delivery systems market include Pfizer Inc., Johnson and Johnson Services Inc., Roche Holding AG, Abbvie Inc., Bayer AG, Novartis AG, AstraZeneca plc, Abbott Laboratories, GlaxoSmithKline plc, 3M Company, Medtronic plc, Eli Lilly and Company, Boehringer Ingelheim GmbH, Amgen Inc., Merck Group, Becton Dickinson and Company, Baxter International Inc., Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd., Sanofi S.A., Boston Scientific Corporation, Mylan N.V., Astellas Pharma Inc., Catalent Inc., Nipro Corporation, AptarGroup Inc., West Pharmaceutical Services Inc., Gerresheimer AG, Insulet Corporation.

North America was the largest region in the advanced drug delivery systems market in 2024. Asia-Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing region in the forecast period. The regions covered in the advanced drug delivery systems market report are Asia-Pacific, Western Europe, Eastern Europe, North America, South America, Middle East, Africa. The countries covered in the advanced drug delivery systems market report are Australia, Brazil, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Japan, Russia, South Korea, UK, USA, Italy, Spain, Canada.

Advanced drug delivery systems refer to innovative techniques and formulations designed to enhance the targeted distribution, bioavailability, and efficacy of pharmaceutical medications. These systems aim to maximize drug efficacy while minimizing side effects, providing controlled drug release rates, and targeting specific areas of the body.

The main types of advanced drug delivery systems include oral drug delivery systems, injection-based drug delivery systems, inhalation or pulmonary drug delivery systems, transdermal drug delivery systems, transmucosal drug delivery systems, carrier-based drug delivery systems, and others. The oral drug delivery system involves introducing a chemical through the mouth or into the gastrointestinal tract for systemic activity. Carrier types in these systems include liposomes, nanoparticles, microspheres, monoclonal antibodies, and others. Various technologies, such as prodrugs, implants, intrauterine devices, targeted drug delivery, polymeric drug delivery, and others, are employed. These delivery systems find applications in indications such as cardiovascular diseases, oncology, urology, diabetes, central nervous system (CNS) disorders, ophthalmology, inflammatory diseases, infections, and more. They are utilized by hospitals, specialized clinics, and clinical research and development centers.
