molecules. The R&D investment of the company are no longer valuable after patent expiration. Thus, the API outsourcing trend in rising. Synthesis Type Insights Based on synthesis type, the market is categorized into synthetic and biotech. Various methods are adopted by the manufacturing companies depending up on the complexity of the molecule required. Synthetic drugs are manufactured on the basis of organic chemistry in contrast to biotechnology based drugs, which are produced by utilizing molecular techniques. Further classification of biotech segment is recombinant proteins, monoclonal antibodies and vaccines. In 2015, synthetic segment held the largest share. The key factors for the biotech APIs segment growth are large R&D investment for new biosimilars, increasing demand for protein-based medicines, and rising focus of key manufacturers toward biological drugs. Manufacturer Type Insights Based on the type of manufacturer, it is categorized into outsourced or merchant or in-house or captive APIs. According to market estimates, in 2015, in-house APIs was the largest segment and outsourced APIs are anticipated to be the fastest growing market. All pharmaceutical companies does not have separate unit for the formulation of API. This has led to rise in the outsourcing of the molecules from the production sites. The need of investment in expensive production processes is eliminated by the outsourcing.
