Novotech, the Asia Pacific centered biotech specialist CRO said the latest industry research publication by GlobalData and Novotech found almost 50% of new trials had sites in Asia Pacific.

According to the new publication titled State of the Global Biotech Landscape: Where the Opportunities Lie, demand for Asia Pacific trial sites is strong with almost half of the more than 27,000 clinical trials initiated in 2021 having sites in Asia Pacific.

The data shows almost 12,900 of the new trials had sites in Asia Pacific.

The report also noted that the Asia Pacific region, which has more than 6,772 trial sites each with access to an average of 2,136 million people, has considerable underutilized capacity presenting an opportunity for growth in multinational trials in the region. 

In addition, analysis of trial growth trends found that Asia Pacific has also seen high phase-level growth over the 5-year analysis period to 2022. 

  • Phases I and II were dominated by Asia Pacific, which served as a trial location in 57% and 49% of trials, respectively. 
  • US and EU remained stable at approximately 20% at phases I through III
  • RoW representation is low in phases I and II but on par with the US and EU in phase III.
