Competitor Analysis: Pneumococcal and Streptococcal Vaccines
The present Competitive Intelligence Report about Pneumococcla and Streptococcal Vaccines provides a competitor evaluation in the field of prophylactic vaccines against infection caused by streptococcus pneumoniae (pneumococcus), Group A Streptococcus (GAS) or Group B Streptococcus (GBS) as of October 2012. Purchase of the downloadable pdf report includes a 6-month online access to the data of the report and any updates since the publication date. Credentials to access the database will be sent by e-mail and allow online work with the project data to print or export an individual report.
Pneumococcal disease is a leading cause of serious illness in children and adults throughout the world. The disease is caused by a common bacterium, Streptococcus pneumoniae, or pneumococcus, a gram-positive, alpha-hemolytic, bile soluble aerotolerant anaerobe, which can attack different parts of the body. When bacteria invade the lungs, they cause the most common form of community-acquired bacterial pneumonia; when bacteria invade the bloodstream, they cause bacteremia; and when they invade the covering of the brain, they cause meningitis. Pneumococci may also cause otitis media (middle ear infection) and sinusitis.
The four major commercially available pneumococcal vaccines posted worldwide sales of more than US$ 5 bln in 2011 indicating the strong interest in the healthcare sector and the vaccine industry.
The report includes a compilation of currently active projects in development of vaccines targeting pneumococcus (Streptococcus pneumoniae), Group A Streptococcus (GAS) or Group B Streptococcus (GBS) for prophylaxis of streptococcal infections. In addition, the report lists company-specific R&D pipelines of Pneumococcal and Streptococcal Vaccines. Competitor projects are listed in a tabular format providing information on:
The Competitor Analysis Series delivers NO-FRILLS, but concise information about the pipeline of R&D projects for targets, diseases, technologies and companies at low prices. The information is provided in a tabular format and fully referenced.
