Sales Analysis of Respiratory Syncytial Virus Vaccines in the U.S. from 2017 to 2021 Vs Market Outlook for 2022 to 2032

Respiratory syncytial virus is a common respiratory virus that generally causes mild, cold-like symptoms. Demand for respiratory syncytial virus vaccines is expected to surge owing to rising disease burden of the causal pathogen - the respiratory syncytial virus.

Infection by the respiratory syncytial virus may lead to severe respiratory diseases such as bronchiolitis and pneumonia, which can further progress into respiratory failure or death in rare cases. Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) is also one of the major causes of hospitalizations and deaths in the elderly adult population in the U.S.

RSV vaccines for adults are gaining recognition for the prevention of pneumonia and exacerbations of chronic pulmonary or cardiac disease. Every year during fall, winter, and spring, RSV infections find prevalence within most regions of the U.S. It thus gives rise to the sales growth of RSV drugs to treat the large U.S. population from seasonal RSV.

  • According to data published by CDC in 2021, each year in the U.S., respiratory syncytial virus infection causes an average of 58,000 hospitalizations with an estimated range of 100-500 deaths among children younger than 5 years.
  • Among adults aged 65 years or older, the metrics display an estimate of 177,000 hospitalizations with 14,000 deaths due to RSV-related infections.

High rate of mortality associated with RSV has given rise to a surge in the demand for respiratory syncytial virus prophylaxis, which is set to drive the growth of the United States respiratory syncytial virus vaccines market, owing to rising prevalence of RSV-associated respiratory diseases.

Furthermore, RSV is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in premature infants and infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia.

  • As per data published in the Nature publications (June 2020), hospitalization rates for RSV among children aged less than 1 year are around 16X greater than those for influenza. Incidence of RSV hospitalization is around 25.9/1000 infants at 1 month of age and 5.2/1000 among all infants in the age group younger than 2 years, in the U.S.

As such, increasing rate of premature births is contributing toward the rising demand for RSV prophylaxis owing to RSV being more commonly found in infants as compared to adults.

As per detailed analysis of the U.S. respiratory syncytial virus vaccines market by Persistence Market Research, the industry stood at around US$ 290.9 Mn in 2021, mainly on the back of high sales of Palivizumab for serious lower respiratory tract infections caused by the respiratory syncytial virus. Palivizumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody that provides protection from infection caused by respiratory syncytial virus.

Thus, demand for Palivizumab is expected to rise over the coming years owing to rising rate of respiratory tract infections in the U.S.

Furthermore, key manufacturers of respiratory syncytial virus vaccines are focused on reducing the cost of treatment for RSV-associated infections by investing in the development of novel mechanisms to enhance drug efficacy and reduce vaccine cost.

  • For instance, Nirsevimab, for respiratory syncytial virus, is expected to be launched in 2023, and is projected to be priced at US$ 600 as compared to the high associated value of Palivizumab at US$ 6,000. Thus, demand for Nirsevimab is expected to show a rising trend during the forecast period of 2032.
  • Similarly, an F glycoprotein neutralizing monoclonal antibody under development called MK-1654 for respiratory syncytial virus, is claimed to prevent RSV infection in infants.

These rising trends in application of novel mechanisms for the treatment of RSV-associated infections is expected to propel the sales growth of respiratory syncytial virus vaccines throughout the forecasted years.

In addition, the chances of contacting RSV-associated infections are high in immunocompromised hosts and can be cured by ribavirin treatment for respiratory syncytial virus.

A collaborative approach toward discovering the therapeutics for RSV infection is a predominant trend experienced in the market space, which is set to enhance the sales of RSVC drugs and provide lucrative opportunities for market players.

“Strong Product Pipeline, Development of Online Platforms, and Increasing Rate of Premature Births”

Development of efficient, effective, as well as safe vaccines is a global health necessity, owing to the increasing disease burden of RSV. Growing number of RSV vaccine candidates in varied formats, such as subunit vaccines, live-attenuated vaccines, particle-based vaccines, and vector-based vaccines, are getting established and are currently present at different phases, many of them being in the clinical stage of development.

Advancements in online platforms, on the other hand, are also creating a lucrative outlook for the high sales of respiratory syncytial virus vaccines via online pharmacies because of ease in product delivery and attractive discount offers for customers.

RSV-associated infections are one of the major causes of morbidity as well as mortality among neonates. Causes of such infections include the presence of chronic lung disease of prematurity, hemodynamically significant congenital heart disease, and preterm birth, which is less than 35 weeks of gestational stage.

Attributed to these factors, demand for RSV vaccines in the U.S. is projected to stand at US$ 1.7 Bn by the end of 2032.

What Can Restrain Demand for Respiratory Syncytial Virus Vaccines Market?

“High Cost Associated With Development of Novel RSV Therapies & Disease Management”

High cost of management of RSV is expected to be a restraint to RSV vaccines market growth. Rising cases of RSV is leading to increase in the number of hospitalizations. Since there is no standard treatment for RSV, cost for hospitalization increases and imposes monetary constraints for patients, including the high cost of Palivizumab, which has a larger availability and higher rate of adoption, owing to its efficacy.

Additionally, the price of technology necessary for developing RSV therapies is high. This factor is expected to further hinder the growth of the RSV market in the U.S. Pharmaceutical companies have encountered major challenges in the development of vaccines for the prevention of RSV, which can be understood from the approval of only a single product, i.e. Palivizumab, in the past decade.

A large amount of vaccine and monoclonal antibody candidates have failed to meet the needed efficacy and suffered severe hindrances in the late stage of development, which has limited the sales of respiratory syncytial virus vaccines.
