This Topical Drugs Contract Development and Manufacturing Organization (CDMO) market report provides a comprehensive analysis of the market’s characteristics, size, and growth, including segmentation, regional and country-level breakdowns, competitive landscape, market shares, trends, and strategies. It also tracks historical and forecasted market growth across various geographies.

The topical drugs contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $52.9 billion in 2024 to $61.69 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.6%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to chronic disease prevalence, advanced drug delivery technologies, cost-efficient outsourcing, regulatory demands, and growth in dermatology and cosmetics.

The topical drugs contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $113.06 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.4%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to personalized medicine, biologics expansion, increased R and D investments, rising skin disorder prevalence, and advanced manufacturing technologies. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing demand for innovative formulations, advancements in drug delivery technologies, rising investment in dermatological research, a surge in outsourcing by pharmaceutical companies, a focus on personalized medicine, stringent regulatory requirements necessitating specialized expertise, and the growing consumer preference for over-the-counter (OTC) skincare products.

The increasing prevalence of skin diseases is expected to drive the growth of the topical drugs contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) market in the future. Skin diseases are medical conditions affecting the skin, causing symptoms such as inflammation, itching, and lesions. The rising prevalence of skin diseases can be attributed to factors such as environmental pollution, UV radiation exposure, genetic predisposition, lifestyle changes, and microbial infections. Topical drugs CDMOs help reduce skin disease prevalence by developing and manufacturing targeted therapies that improve the management and treatment of dermatological conditions. For example, in January 2024, Cancer Australia, an Australian-based cancer control agency, reported a significant increase in skin melanoma cases between 2019 and 2023, with numbers rising from 15,628 to 18,257. Additionally, in 2019, males had 9,134 cases compared to 6,494 females, while by 2023, the numbers had risen to 10,639 males and 7,618 females. Therefore, the increasing prevalence of skin diseases is driving the growth of the topical drugs CDMO market.

Major companies in the topical drugs CDMO market are focused on developing state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities to maintain their market position. A state-of-the-art manufacturing facility is a specialized production site equipped with the latest technology and advanced processes tailored for the development and manufacturing of topical pharmaceutical products. For instance, in November 2023, SOHM Inc., a US-based pharmaceutical company, launched a CDMO GMP manufacturing facility. The new Carlsbad facility will offer ample space for manufacturing topical products and SOHM's operations, with 2,500 square feet dedicated to storing finished products. Initially, it will have a daily capacity of 500 gallons (1,892 liters) for manufacturing topicals. By the end of Q1 2024 or the start of Q2 2024, it is expected to expand its capacity to include soft-gel suppositories.

In April 2024, CoreRx Inc., a US-based pharmaceutical company, acquired Societal CDMO Inc. for $130 million. The acquisition is set to enhance CoreRx into a stronger CDMO, expanding its services from early-stage development to commercial manufacturing. It will streamline operations, increase market share, and provide long-term benefits such as improved economies of scale, better R&D, and a stronger competitive position. Societal CDMO Inc. is a US-based contract development and manufacturing organization that specializes in developing and manufacturing novel drug delivery formulations.
