"Vaccines market will reach $33.8 billion in 2012" visiongain report predicts

July 26, 2012 - PRLog -- Paediatric vaccination is the traditional cornerstone of the market, and this segment continues to dominate, with the forthcoming release of Bexsero (Novartis’ vaccine against meningitis B) set to enlarge the market. However, increased vaccination of adults and growing penetration of therapeutic vaccines in the cancer treatment market will drive the next phase of growth through to 2022, the study notes.

Dr James Evans, a pharmaceutical industry analyst in visiongain, said: “Pfizer’s Prevnar-13, the biggest vaccine franchise in the world in 2011 with sales of $3.7bn, is soon to be extended to adults. It’s the first multi-billion dollar vaccine franchise, and it will replace Lipitor as Pfizer’s biggest product.

“That’s a symbolic moment: vaccines are joining other biological products as the main driver for the pharmaceutical industry overall. The expansion of the therapeutic vaccines segment will accelerate that process, with vaccine treatments for melanoma, ovarian and lung cancers in the next ten years.”
