LONDON, July 31, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- INTRODUCTIONThe rising demand of personalized medicines to provide targeted treatment options has encouraged pharmaceutical companies to shift their focus from small molecules to discovery and development of biologics, particularly antibody based therapeutics. Antibodies, because of several advantages such as high specificity and targeted approach, are increasingly becoming crucial for the treatment of a number of diseases. In fact, since 2015, more than 20 antibodies have been approved by the USFDA. The growing popularity of antibody based therapeutics is also reflected from the dominance of these biologics in the portfolios of major biopharmaceutical companies. Download the full report: https://www.reportbuyer.com/product/5028029/At present, the focus of majority of biopharmaceutical companies is on discovering therapeutic antibodies against novel targets. However, discovery of antibodies is a long, arduous and costly process; as a result, there is a growing preference to outsource such operations. Drug developers are partnering with contract research organizations (CROs) that provide antibody discovery services using novel and advanced technologies. Outsourcing enables biopharmaceutical companies / academic institutes accelerate their drug discovery process by leveraging the technical capabilities and expertise of CROs. Additionally, a number of drug developers and academic institutes have obtained rights to access novel antibody discovery platforms from technology providers. As the demand of novel therapeutic antibodies for various disease areas is expected to rise steadily, we are optimistic about the future of the contract research firms that are driving innovation in the drug discovery process.SCOPE OF THE REPORTThe 'Antibody Discovery: Services and Platforms, 2017-2027' report provides an extensive study on the current market landscape and future outlook of the antibody discovery service and platform providers. The study presents an in-depth analysis of a diverse set of companies that provide antibody discovery services and / or provide access to their platforms to drug developers. In addition to other elements, the report provides information on the following:- The competitive market landscape and industry analysis with respect to key players along with information on their geographical location, type of business operation, methods used for antibody generation and the purpose of antibody discovery (therapeutic and / or diagnostic).- Elaborate profiles of established / emerging players that offer a wide range of services in the overall antibody discovery process; each profile includes a brief overview of the company, information on its financial and funding details (if available), antibody discovery service portfolio and novel antibody discovery technology / platforms, and a view on its future outlook and strategy.- Most active regions in terms of antibody discovery services and platforms; the report contains schematic representations of world maps that clearly indicate the location of antibody discovery service hubs.- Platform competitiveness and supplier power (in the form of 2 X 2 matrices) across the growing landscape of antibody discovery platforms that are available for licensing.- A case study covering detailed information on the historical background of drug discovery process of some of the blockbuster therapeutic monoclonal antibodies such as Humira®, Remicade®, Herceptin®, Lucentis® and Simponi®.- Partnerships that have taken place in the recent past covering research collaborations, service agreements, license agreements, mergers / acquisitions and other deals signed between industry / non-industry stakeholders.

During the course of our study, we identified more than 60 companies that offer antibody discovery services. Majority (more than 80%) of these antibody discovery service providers are located in North America and EU. Examples of the players based in these regions include (in alphabetical order) Adimab, Aragen Bioscience, Antibody Solutions, Evotec, GenScript, Integral Molecular, ModiQuest Research and PX'Therapeutics.2. It is worth highlighting that a number of start-ups have entered this domain to provide contract research services; examples include (in alphabetical order) Ab Studio, Abveris Antibody, AffinityImmuno, ChemBio Discovery Solutions, G&P Biosciences, HiFiBiO, OriMAbs, Panoply Bio and Specifica.3. CROs offer antibody discovery services by deploying a variety of methods such as library based (phage display, yeast display and mammalian display), hybridoma, transgenic animal based and single cell based methods. During our research, we observed that a vast majority of companies (31) offer antibody discovery services by using library based methods. This is followed by companies that use hybridoma method (27), single cell based methods (13) and transgenic animal based methods (11). 4. Companies that have developed novel antibody drug discovery platforms are providing access / non-exclusive licenses of their proprietary platforms to drug developers, CROs and academic institutes. During the course of our study, we identified more than 20 such platform providers. Around 40% of the antibody discovery platform providers are headquartered in North America, 36% of companies are based in Europe while the remaining (24%) are located in the Asia Pacific region.5. Majority (13) of the platforms available for licensing are library based; examples include Abtracer™, ADAPT™, ADLib® library, mAbLogix™ and n-CoDeR® antibody library. There are seven transgenic animal based platforms that are available for licensing; these include AlivaMab™ Mouse, Kymouse™ platform, OmniAb® platforms and TRIANNI Mouse platform.6. A number of stakeholders in the field of antibody discovery have entered into collaborations with CROs and / or technology providers. We came across 172 deals that have been signed during the period 2011-2017. Majority (~50%) of the partnerships in this domain are research collaborations; this highlights the fact that extensive research is being conducted to discover novel therapeutic antibodies. Technology licensing is the second most popular partnership model in this field, capturing 32% share. Prominent contract service providers that have entered into multiple partnerships include Adimab, Crystal Biosciences, MAB Discovery, AbCellera and Abzena.7. Driven by the rising demand for targeted therapies and innovation in antibody discovery methods, we expect the antibody discovery services market to witness continuous growth in the coming decade. In terms of geography, majority (more than 70%) of the share is distributed between North America and Europe; we believe that China is likely to grow at faster rate (annualized rate of 8.9%) as compared to other regions in the coming decade. With respect to antibody discovery methods, we believe that transgenic animal based method is likely to grow at a faster rate (annualized rate of 6.6%) as compared to the established methods such as phage display and hybridoma methods.
