Antibacterial drugs market will hit $35.6 billion by 2022, as efforts increase to tackle antimicrobial resistance, says New Research at Market Reports Center
The antibacterial drugs market is set to grow from $27.7 billion in 2015 to $35.6 billion by 2022, representing a compound annual growth rate of 3.97%, according to business intelligence at Market Reports Center.
Latest report states that emerging companies and the approvals of new products will drive this growth, along with the continued success of the established marketed products Infanrix, which vaccinates against diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis, and Augmentin, which is amoxicillin sodium and clavulanate potassium.

The antibacterial drug market covers the drugs used in the prophylaxis and treatment of bacterial infections. With a growing global concern over antimicrobial resistance and its progressive growth, there is a pronounced need for innovation within this market. This report considers the key developments in this market, with particular focus on drugs indicated for use in pneumonia, methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), sepsis and tuberculosis.
Drugs for the prevention of bacterial infections are typically vaccines, which help to train the body’s immune system to fight off specific infections, and can therefore help to prevent infections of certain bacterial strains. However, several prophylactic monoclonal antibodies are also currently in development.
Drugs for the treatment of bacterial infections are slightly more varied. Most common are beta-lactam antibiotics, which include the very widely prescribed penicillin. However, bacteria have developed resistance to penicillin by producing beta-lactamase enzymes that break open the beta-lactam ring found in these antibiotics, rendering them ineffective. As a result modern beta-lactams are frequently combination drugs of a beta-lactam and a beta-lactamase inhibitor.

In addition to beta-lactams there are several other classes of drugs used to treat bacterial infections. These include fluoroquinolones, which inhibit DNA gyrase and/or topoisomerase IV; and protein synthesis inhibitors, which have applications within the treatment of bacteria that are resistant to beta-lactam antibiotics. However, bacterial resistance has also developed against these drugs, and as such there is a gap in the market for a new generation of drugs that are effective against drug-resistant bacteria.
The antibacterial market is currently dominated by vaccines, in particular those for the prevention of pneumococcal infections, diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis. However, recent years have seen key additions in the form of therapies for antibiotic-resistant bacteria, including strains with multi-drug resistance. The number of such products is expected to increase drastically between 2016 and 2022.

Thomas Jarratt, Associate Analyst for Research, explains: “In an attempt to tackle antimicrobial resistance, many companies are investing in the development of products active against bacteria that are known to be resistant to established classes of antibacterials. The use of protein synthesis inhibitors, for example, is expected to increase dramatically over the forecast period as a result of their effectiveness in treating drug-resistant bacterial infections.”
With many protein synthesis inhibitors now off-patent, and with bacteria having developed resistance to a wide range of these drugs, Research believes several of the pipeline drugs for the next-generation of protein synthesis will be approved and enter the market within the forecast period, and will benefit from the commercial focus on treating drug-resistant infections. These include Solithera (solithromycin), Arikace (amikacin sulfate), Cadazolid (cadazolid), and Plazomicin (plazomicin sulfate).
Jarratt continues: “Despite this influx of new protein synthesis inhibitors and the release of several new cell-wall synthesis inhibitors, vaccines will still be the leading revenue generating drugs in the antibacterial drugs market. Indeed, the lack of biosimilars for antibacterial vaccines means that generic competition does not impact on sales as it does for other types of drugs, and many developed countries implement schedules for vaccines preventing certain indications.
“Merck’s blockbuster Prevnar, for example, has benefited greatly from this, and its efficacy in infants for the prevention of 13 serotypes of streptococcus pneumonia, the causative agent in pneumonia, has led to widespread global usage in vaccination schedules, culminating in very high revenue.”
