Specialty pharmaceuticals are drugs used for the treatment of chronic, life-threatening, and serious conditions such as growth hormone deficiency, cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, and multiple sclerosis. Specialty pharmaceutical includes products like blood-derived, complex molecules, and biopharmaceuticals. They are often costly as compared to traditional drugs and are usually classified as biologics. Specialty pharmaceutical is also identified as a specialty when they require special handling equipment of the drugs and these drugs are available through a limited distribution network.
Growing geriatric population bases rate coupled with the rising prevalence of various chronic diseases around the globe is primarily fueling the market growth. Rising cases of cancer raising the demand for specialty pharmaceutical products is another major factor fueling market growth. According to the WHO, the global cancer burden is estimated to have risen to 18.1 million new cases and 9.6 million deaths in 2018. Approximately 70% of deaths from cancer occur in low- and middle-income countries.
From the regional point of view, North America is expected to gain significant growth over the forecast period, and this can be accredited to the presence of well-established healthcare industry, growing specialty pharmacy, and rising spending on specialty pharmaceuticals in the region. According to the report published by pharmacy times, over the last five years, total US expenditures for specialty drugs have doubled from $83 billion in 2013 to $157 billion in 2017, including the expense for orphan drugs (ie, "ultra-specialty" medications), total spending on specialty drugs reached $200 billion in 2017.
However, the high cost of specialty pharmaceuticals is expected to hamper the market growth of the specialty pharmaceutical.
