Synopsis
The global market for Peptide CDMO was estimated to be worth US$ 4235 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 11080 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 15.0% during the forecast period 2025-2031.
Peptides are synthesized by coupling the carboxyl group of one amino acid to the amino group of another amino acid molecule. Due to the possibility of unintended reactions, protecting groups are common necessary. Chemical peptide synthesis most commonly starts at the carboxyl end of the peptide, and thus progress toward the amino-terminus. This is the opposite direction of protein biosynthesis. A contract development and manufacturing company (CDMO) is a company within the pharmaceutical industry that provides drug development and manufacturing services. Pharmaceutical companies partner with CDMOs as a way to outsource drug development and drug manufacturing. CDMO peptides production via contract peptide manufacturing is to optimize process development and achieve highly efficient conversion at every amino acid coupling to produce a high-purity crude synthetic custom peptide and minimize the demands on downstream processing.
The Peptide CDMO (Contract Development and Manufacturing Organization) market is driven by the increasing demand for peptide-based therapeutics. Peptides are gaining significant traction in the pharmaceutical industry due to their high specificity, targeted action, and fewer side effects compared to traditional small-molecule drugs. As a result, there is growing interest in developing and manufacturing peptides for a wide range of indications, including oncology, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and neurological disorders. This shift is coupled with the rise in personalized medicine, where peptides are seen as promising candidates for tailored therapies. Peptide CDMOs are playing a crucial role by providing specialized services like synthesis, purification, and formulation, enabling pharmaceutical companies to bring peptide-based drugs to market faster and more efficiently. Additionally, advancements in peptide synthesis technologies and the increasing outsourcing trend by biopharmaceutical companies are fueling growth in this sector.
Despite the positive growth drivers, the Peptide CDMO market faces several challenges. One of the main hurdles is the complexity involved in peptide synthesis and manufacturing, particularly for large-scale production. Peptides are often fragile and prone to degradation, requiring strict control over production processes, which can be both time-consuming and costly. Additionally, the high costs of peptide synthesis, purification, and formulation pose significant barriers to entry for smaller players, limiting competition and innovation in the market. Furthermore, regulatory challenges are a concern, as peptides often face more stringent requirements during the clinical development and commercialization stages compared to traditional small-molecule drugs. These challenges can result in delays in drug development and increased production costs, which could ultimately impact the profitability of peptide CDMOs.
Global key peptide CDMO producers include Bachem, PolyPeptide, CordenPharma, and others. The top five manufacturers together account for 40% of the market share, with the largest manufacturer being Bachem with 17%.
