Increasing Globalization Trends Driving the Market for Clinical Trial Cold Chain Services
A new report expects the total cold chain logistics spending on clinical trial materials to grow at a CAGR of around 4% during 2012-2016.
- (1888PressRelease) March 15, 2013 - Driven by an increased spending and globalization of clinical trials, the demand for efficient storage and transportation services for clinical trial materials has increased significantly over the past few years. Research firm IMARC Group expects this market to grow at a CAGR of around 4% during 2012-2016, according to its latest report titled "Global Healthcare Cold Chain Logistics Market Report & Forecast: 2012-2017". According to an analyst at IMARC Group, "the increasing trends in clinical trials outsourcing is creating additional steps in the overall supply chain of clinical trial materials (drugs, blood samples, tissue samples, urine samples, sputum samples, etc). In many cases contract research organizations and their sponsors may be present in two different countries, this is quite evident from the fact that the number of clinical trials in many Asian, Latin American and East European countries are increasing rapidly whereas the sponsors are based in the US and Western Europe. The large distance creates huge requirements for the efficient cold chain packaging, storage and transportation of clinical trial materials between the clinical trial sponsor and the contract research organization".
