DUBLIN, Feb 2, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Biological Drugs to 2020" report to their offering.

In recent years, the number of biological drugs in development and reaching the marketplace has increased significantly. The clinical application of these drugs is sometimes limited by a lack of desirable attributes for adequate absorption or distribution. So it's critical to formulate these drugs into safe, stable and efficacious delivery systems. Because these drugs face formidable enzymatic and penetration barriers when administered orally, peptide and protein drugs continue to be developed almost exclusively for parenteral administration.

The growth of biological drug products is having a significant effect on the way drugs and devices are developed. Cooperation between device designers and drug developers is occurring much earlier in the drug development cycle, allowing device designs in many cases to be tailored to the bioavailability targets and pharmacokinetic profiles of specific drug therapies. Therapeutic Biological Drugs to 2020 is a comprehensive analysis of these factors and market segments.
