Therapeutic vaccines function by triggering a body immune response against a disease. The global therapeutic vaccines market was valued at USD 292 million in 2011. The introduction of therapeutic vaccines has opened up new avenues in the field of chronic disease treatment and prophylactic immunization. Provenge was the first U.S. FDA approved immunotherapy drug to treat prostate cancer in men in 2010, which has encouraged rigorous research and development initiatives by pharmaceutical companies to develop novel vaccines for untapped disease segments.


As a result of these initiatives, many more therapeutic vaccines are currently in the pipeline such as breast cancer vaccine, lung cancer vaccine; Alzheimer’s vaccine, malaria vaccine, and diabetes vaccine are expected to be introduced in the market during the period from 2012 to 2018. 

The market is currently facing growth hindrances as R&D approaches, and regulatory and reimbursement policies are inconspicuous owing to the nascent nature of the market. However, regulatory bodies are working enthusiastically to lay out policies and growth strategies, due to the fact that it holds the potential to solve or curb chronic diseases, with no currently available treatments, such as HIV AIDS.

our components hold imperative importance in designing a therapeutic vaccine:

Antigens: These are substances that evoke an immune response from the body and are responsible for the production of antibodies

Adjuvants: These are immunological agents that help in modifying the effects of a drug or vaccine. Companies are now engaged in designing new adjuvants that will help in enhancing the immunogenicity of an antigen

Cost effective production systems for vaccines

Designing innovative drug delivery devices to enhance vaccine efficacy


The North American therapeutic vaccine market is expected to generate the maximum revenue in the global market during the forecasted period due to the presence of efficient R&D facilities and sophisticated medical infrastructures. The market is segmented into three major application segments namely oncology, infectious diseases and other chronic disorders.

The therapeutic vaccine market with oncology applications market held the majority of the market share in 2011, as most of the research and development exercises are expected to be directed towards this segment during 2012 to 2018.

Merck and GSK have strong therapeutic vaccine product pipelines and are expected to perform better during 2012 to 2018 than their competitors who have fewer products in the pipeline. Some of the other key players of the market include Sanofi-Pasteur, Cytos Biotechnology AG, and Intellect Neurosciences.

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammation of fatty myelin sheaths around the axons of the brain and spinal cord. MS tends to affect the ability of nerve cells to communicate with each other in the brain and spinal cord. MS affects people with random symptoms based on the location and severity of attack. One event can last for days, weeks or months and can affect any part of the body. Symptoms include imbalance, loss of motor function, spasms, numbness, incontinence, and difficulty in swallowing.



There is no known cure for the disease currently and the only drugs available in the market are for delaying the progression of the disease. MS is estimated to affect 2.5 million people worldwide with around 5000 new cases developing each year. The National Multiple Sclerosis Society, Multiple Sclerosis Foundation, Multiple Sclerosis Association of America and several others are organizations which are determined to ensure improvement in the lives of affected people to make them more educated and spread awareness of this disease.

Until the last year, the MS drugs market was led primarily by injectables, yet this trend is changing very quickly to give way to oral MS drugs which is expected to grow strongly beginning from 2013. Gilenya and Aubagio are the top current oral drugs in this segment and Biogen’s oral BG-12 and Teva Laquinimod are two other drugs in the pipeline for approval with a significantly higher efficacy to be launched in the next five years. Although oral MS drugs seem to be growing quickly, it is not expected that they would unsettle injectables anytime soon. Several fatal side effects have been linked to use of Gilenya among those who have a heart disease and thus shows that there is still a long way to go for oral MS drugs.


Top contenders in this segment till now are Copaxone, Avonex, Rebif, Betaseron, and Tysabri. Most of these drugs work actively to control MS relapses. Other treatments such as stem-cell transplantation are currently under investigation. The process includes the injection of stem cells which will replace the affected inflamed and diseased cells, greatly improving patient’s quality of life.

In this research report Transparency Market Research analyzes the global high-potency active pharmaceutical ingredients market (HPAPI) along with market dynamics and present market condition. It also covers the market of high-potency active pharmaceutical ingredients types and application in different regions of the world namely, North America, Europe, Asia and RoW along with their sub segments. Moreover, the report provides detailed and in-depth analysis of the HPAPI market, with their estimated figures and forecast from 2012 to 2018, along with compound annual growth rate from 2012 to 2018.

The global high-potency active pharmaceutical ingredients market has shown favorable growth trend in the last few years and is expected to grow rapidly in the forecasted period. The demand of oncology products is further expected to drive the growth of this market. The high level of competition in this market is due to new entrants fragmenting the market. HPAPI market by type of synthesis has been covered in this report providing their estimates and forecast from 2012 to 2018. The drivers, restraints and opportunities have also been covered broadly in this report along with their impact analysis. These market dynamics will be highly helpful in taking corporate decisions related to the HPAPI market.

High potency active pharmaceutical ingredients (HPAPIs) are growing rapidly as compared to other segments of the healthcare industry. HPAPI are the compounds helpful in the treatment of respiratory disorders, treatment of cancer and hormonal imbalances. Growing oncology therapeutics market worldwide is the key factor driving the growth of this market.

High Potency Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients Market is a growing concept and is considered to be a boost to the pharmaceutical industry. Patented high potency drug development majorly dominates the HPAPI market. The branded sector constitutes the major share of this market but the patents of this branded sector are expected to expire in the coming few years that will help HPAPI manufacturers to cater to multiple clients by producing the generic version of the ingredients in bulk.

Some of the factors driving this market at a rapid growth rate are majority of blockbuster drugs nearing patent expiry, US government promoting generic drugs to reduce its medical burden, insurance companies preferring generic drugs over patented drugs for cost effectiveness and India and China with maximum DMFs with the US FDA.

However, a large number of competitors are entering this market making it highly fragmented which may slow down the growth of this market. Moreover, reduced R&D investments leading to low demand of HPAPIs and shortage of US FDA approved manufacturing sites are also likely to be the major restraints for the growth of the high potency active pharmaceutical ingredients market.

However, North America has been the largest market for high potency pharmaceutical ingredients as the country spends highly on the development of healthcare systems, whereas the European market has experienced several fluctuations in the past few years but is expected to grow rapidly in the near future due to rise in the demand of oncology drugs in this region.
