[PDF] Acremonium (formerly known as Cephalosporium), a mold, is the source of a broad class of medicines known as cephalosporins. Similar to how penicillin’s function, cephalosporins are bactericidal drugs. The enzymes that produce peptidoglycan, a crucial part of the bacterial cell wall, are bound to by them and prevent their activity. They are efficient against a variety of bacteria, which is why they are known as broad-spectrum antibiotics.

According to National Institute of Health, an estimated 10 million people worldwide contracted tuberculosis (TB) in 2020, with eight countries accounting for two-thirds of all cases in 2021, with India leading the list, followed by China, Indonesia, the Philippines, Pakistan, Nigeria, Bangladesh, and Soudan. The growth of the Cephalosporin Drug Market can boost by the rising cases of respiratory tract infections such as TB. The market growth was significantly impacted by COVID-19 as well because of the rise in household and physician prescriptions for antibiotics during the pandemic. Furthermore, increasing incidences of bacterial skin infections specifically resource poor region is also expected to propel the target market growth, for instance according to National Institute of Health skin conditions contributed 1.79% to the total burden of disease measured in DALYs across 306 diseases and injuries.

Increase in research and development activity

Increased research and development efforts targeted at launching novel combinations and extending the product line to encompass more infectious disease treatments will eventually lead to growth in the Cephalosporin Drugs Market.

For instance, in June 2021, according to BIOVERSYS, CARB-X announced US$ 4.35 million in non-dilutive funding for BioVersys AG for a privately held clinical trials. BioVersys AG focuses on research and development of small molecules for multidrug-resistant bacterial infections with applications in antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and targeted microbiome modulation.

Strategic development of new product

The market for cephalosporin drugs may expand as a result of companies employing their resources to create products in a strategic manner. A strategic launch can be advantageous to target a sizable market niche and aid in the expansion of the cephalosporin industry.

For instance, in September 2021, Lincoln Pharmaceuticals Limited, released cephalosporin-based medications with the purchase of the facility in Mehsana, Gujarat, and would devote Rs. 30 crores on upgrading and expanding the cephalosporin plant's capacity.

Restrains:

Unfavorable development conditions due to various barriers

Having dependable and potent antibiotic medications will be more crucial than ever as more and more patients contract difficult-to-treat, multi-drug resistance diseases. For pharmaceutical corporations, investing in antibiotics is a less appealing business venture due to limitation in science, regulations, and finances.

For instance, according to ACS Publication Article Titled “Research and Development of Antibiotics: The Next Battleground" shows how a perfect combination of scientific difficulties, regulatory uncertainties, challenging markets, and industry consolidation has hampered antibiotic market.
