What Is Driving The Growth In The Small Molecule Drug Discovery Market?
The small molecule drug discovery market is primarily driven by the rising incidence of chronic diseases. Chronic diseases, lasting for a year or longer and significantly interfering with daily activities, necessitate continuous medical care. This has led to increased reliance on small-molecule medications to treat chronic diseases such as HIV, Cancer, infections, heart disease, and renal disease. According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the number of people aged 50 and older with at least one chronic disease is projected to increase by 99.5%, from 71.522 million in 2020 to 142.66 million in 2050. This surge in chronic diseases is propelling the growth of the small molecule drug discovery market.
