The increasing prevalence of chronic disease and growing demand for clinical trials in the U.S. is boosting the growth of the market.

The number of people diagnosed with cancer is expected to increase multi-fold in the coming eight years. Although survivors have increased considerably owing to research in the oncology field, the number of cancer patients is expected to increase across the world. Pancreatic cancer has a poor prognosis with a survival of only 1 to 3 years. Approximately 13 people are diagnosed with GI stromal tumors each day. More than 60, 000 new cases of renal cell carcinoma are diagnosed every year in the U.S. Hence, representing an increasing prevalence of cancer and the need for effective treatments against various types of cancer. Investment in R&D is expected to grow owing to the disease prevalence across the U.S. thereby boosting the industry’s growth.

The COVID-19 pandemic has halted new research projects and reallocated resources for other diseases. The supply chain for clinical trial samples has also been interrupted as a result of blocked borders. Hence, this market is disrupted. However, the COVID-19 response has resulted in new developments on the market that have transformed the conduct of clinical trials. Decentralized/virtual clinical trials are one such technique. Virtual trials have a very important role in the current COVID-19 scenario. As a result of the virtual visit and remote patient monitoring, participants have a choice and peace of mind to minimize risks. Monitoring gadgets, software tools, and mobile phones enable participants to complete the experiment from their homes.

Regulatory agencies such as the U.S. FDA, the European Medicines Agency (EMA), the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and China’s National Medical Products Administration, and several other countries have issued guidelines related to the conduct of clinical trials during the outbreak of coronavirus, and are in complete support of incorporating virtual services.

A virtual trial follows a patient-centered approach, allowing for a more conventional trial experience for the participant together with enhanced data collection, increased diversity of patients, and time savings from the perspective of the trial duration.

With the help of this approach, a large population can be considered for the trial, which improves the study, engagement, recruitment, and retention. Virtual trials can remarkably decrease the effort, time, and burden on participants, investigators, and clinical research coordinators. Thus, making it a very effective and efficient approach for the U.S. clinical trials market.

Phase Insights

The phase III segment held the lion’s share of 54.9% in 2022. This is primarily because of the fact that the phase III clinical trials are most crucial as they involve 300 to 3000 participants and have a longer treatment period. Thus, it is the most expensive phase. Although the number of drugs in this phase is relatively low, the complexity associated with this phase is the highest.

The failure rate in this phase is the highest as the sample size and study design require complex dosing at an optimum level. The loss associated with failure is both human and financial and the majority of the failures occur due to non-compliance with safety and efficacy standards. Only one-third of drugs that enter clinical trials make it to phase III trials.

Phase I studies are anticipated to register the fastest CAGR growth of 7.4% during the forecast period. These studies assess the safety of a device or drug and involve the evaluation of the tolerability and pharmacokinetics of molecules. It determines the effect of a device or drug on humans including the way it is absorbed, metabolized, and excreted.

It also examines the side effects of the drug in case of increased dosage levels. The stage includes 20 to 100 healthy volunteers or people with the disease. The high growth of the segment is majorly due to the increasing drug pipeline of pharmaceutical as well as biopharmaceutical companies.

Study Design Insights

The interventional study design segment accounted for the largest market share of 47.4% in 2022. The segment is also anticipated to register the second-fastest growth during the forecast period. Interventional studies are categorized based on the intervention that is to be studied which includes drug or biologic, behavioral, surgical procedure, and devices.

There has been a significant rise in the number of interventional studies carried out over time. The interventional studies comprise 83.4% of total registered studies in the U.S. as of September 2021, out of which the majority of studies are on drug or biologics, followed by behavioral, clinical procedure, and device intervention studies.

The expanded access trials segment is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.9% during the forecasted period in the U.S. clinical trials market. It would be a prospective approach for patients having a serious disease or condition, which is life-threatening. In this, a patient is allowed to carry out treatment outside of a clinical trial when no satisfactory therapies are available.

The main factor driving the growth of this segment is increasing innovation. For instance, HUTCHMED, in collaboration with Surufatinib, has started an Expanded Access Program (EAP) in the U.S. for Neuroendocrine Tumors for patients having life-threatening conditions that can’t be treated with available medications or clinical trials.

Indication Insights

The oncology segment accounted for the maximum revenue share of 26.2% & is also anticipated to register the fastest CAGR over the forecast period. The increasing prevalence of cancer and the need for effective treatments against various types of cancer is the key factor driving the growth of the segment. Investment in R&D is expected to grow owing to the disease prevalence across the U.S. thereby fueling the market’s growth.

In 2018, there were 1,120 oncology medicines & vaccines in development by America’s biopharmaceutical firms. These include 140 for various types of leukemia, 136 for lymphoma, 132 for lung cancer, 108 for breast cancer & other medicines for ovarian cancer, prostate cancer, colorectal cancer, childhood cancer, and solid tumors.

The autoimmune segment of the U.S. clinical trials market is expected to be the second most lucrative segment with a CAGR of 5.9% in 2022 due to significant growth in the prevalence of the autoimmune disease, owing to the changing lifestyle and aging population. The autoimmune diseases affect one in 15 Americans including 20 million women & 8 million men.

They are among the top 10 causes of death in women & female children in all age groups up to 64 years of age. There has been a notable increase in R&D spending on autoimmune diseases. As per the NIH’s estimate autoimmune costs approximately USD 100 billion a year in medical care.
