This significantly boosted the market to a great extent. Owing to the decline in the cases of COVID-19 due to the growing vaccination drive, the CDMOs are focusing on developing drugs for cancer and other chronic and infectious diseases due to the high disease prevalence. For instance, in January 2022, Lonza partnered with HaemaLogiX, a developer of monoclonal antibodies, to manufacture myeloma drug candidate KappaMab, a monoclonal antibody.
