Global Schistosomiasis Treatment Market: Drivers

Increasing prevalence of schistosomiasis is expected to aid in growth of the ggloba schistosomiasis treatment market over the forecast period. For instance, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), around 218 million people required preventive treatments for schistosomiasis in 2015 and more than 66.5 million people were reported as treated for schistosomiasis in the same year. Moreover, according to the same source, 78 countries reported transmission of schistosomiasis.

Increasing demand for preventive chemotherapy against schistosomiasis is also expected to aid in growth of the market. For instance, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), in 2017, around 92% people require preventive chemotherapy for schistosomiasis in Africa and around 75% of school aged children are at risk of morbidity from schistosomiasis and soil-transmitted helminthiasis. According to the same source, 207.7 million people worldwide required preventive chemotherapy in 2016, of which around 111.8 million were school-aged children. Moreover, lack of hygienic environment and safe drinking water in emerging economies is expected to propel the growth of the global schistosomiasis market.

Global Schistosomiasis Treatment Market: Opportunities

Increasing R&D of vaccines for the treatment of schistosomiasis is expected to offer lucrative growth opportunities for players in the global schistosomiasis treatment market. For instance, in 2015, Dr. Afzal Siddiqui, a professor at the Tech Health Sciences Center, received a patent for a vaccine for the treatment of schistosomiasis after the vaccine demonstrated positive endpoints in pre-clinical trials. In 2017, researchers at the University of Nottingham discovered the infiltrin protein on a parasitic egg, which may cause schistosomiasis. Similarly, in the same year, the College of Science at Oregon State University reportedly identified a new protein in Biomphalaria glabrata snail, known as Grctm6. Such developments may facilitate introduction of effective vaccines against the disease.

Moreover, increasing initiatives by public and private organizations for treatment and management of schistosomiasis is also expected to aid in growth of the market. For instance, in May 2017, Global Schistosomiasis Alliance organized Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs) program hosted by World Health Organizations (WHO).
