The peptide-drug conjugate (PDC) market is the sector that deals in the research and development, manufacture, and commercialization of peptide-drug conjugates, a drug class that mingles peptides and cytotoxic medicines to promote enhanced targeted drug delivery. PDCs are prepared to increase efficacy and reduce the harmful effects of a drug by employing peptides' selective targeting capabilities at diseased tissues, including tumors, to cut down side effects. Furthermore, the world peptide drug conjugate (PDC) market is fueled by rising cancer incidence, the development of targeted drug delivery, and growing demand for personalized medicine. Increased drug effectiveness, decreased toxicity, and increased R&D expenditures further accelerate the growth of the market. Moreover, advancing biotechnology advancements and favorable regulatory clearances further fuel the development of PDC therapies globally. However, the high development costs, complex manufacturing processes, stringent regulatory approvals, limited clinical success rates, potential toxicity concerns, and challenges in large-scale production and stability are key restraints for the growth of the market.
