Medical Affairs Outsourcing Market Dynamics

Driver: Increasing Number of Clinical Trials

The rising number of clinical trials and research studies worldwide is growing due to increasing R&D expenditure by pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical companies. There is remarkable increase in number of clinical trials in oncology over the past 10 years. According to Mint Medical, more than 35,000 oncological clinical trials have been launched since 2007, accounting for 18% of all trials. In addition, the number of oncological trials launched per year increased by 60% from 2,500 to 4,000 in 2007 and 2017 respectively. There has been steady increase in the demand for medical affairs service providers in pharmaceutical and medical device companies attributed to the rise in the number of clinical trials and launch of new products.

Driver: Cost-Effectiveness and High Quality Services Offered By CROs

The pharmaceutical and medical device industries is experiencing declined profit margins due to growing pricing pressure, strict regulatory policies, and ascending number of patent expirations. Contract medical affairs services are considered as “strategic competitive weapon” among biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical firms, as these services help in cost saving. Medical affairs service providers have grown significantly due to rising R&D expenditure and increasing focus of pharmaceutical companies on containing cost. Biopharmaceutical companies are now outsourcing their medical affairs activities to achieve better quality and cost. This trend is expected to witness a growth due to the increase in capabilities of CROs to manage each medical affairs function, which would reduce the need for additional efforts of biopharmaceutical companies.

Restraints: Inability to Hire Experienced Technical Staff

Medical affairs service providers need to extend their internal capability to build stronger partnerships with big pharmaceutical and medical device companies. The industry needs to acquire strong problem-solving capabilities with versatile expertise. These service providers require professionals with diverse backgrounds such as experts in social media listening & engagement, data scientists & engineers, and digital design leaders. They also need to strengthen basic skill sets such as the focus on quality, strategic thinking, leadership & communications skills, and emotional intelligence to meet the increasing demand for talented medical affairs professionals. Currently, such talent is scarce in the industry. This resource constraint is expected to be a major restraint for growth of medical affairs outsourcing market.
