The formation of various alliances for vaccine distribution is expected to increase demand for pneumococcal vaccines globally, leading to the growth of the pneumococcal vaccine market in the forecast years. For instance, in 2022, GAVI (Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization) reported that coverage of the third dose of the pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV3) rose to 70%, up from 56% in 2019-2021 among GAVI's 57 member countries. This increase, surpassing initial estimates, marks a significant milestone in improving PCV coverage and reducing the burden of childhood pneumococcal disease in low-income regions.
The rising incidence of pneumococcal disease across all age groups is driving the market for pneumococcal vaccines in the forecast years. Increased rates of infections, including severe conditions such as pneumonia, meningitis, and bacteremia, are boosting the demand for effective preventive measures. This increase in disease prevalence, driven by factors like aging populations, underlying health conditions, and antibiotic resistance, underscores the importance of vaccination. As awareness grows and healthcare systems emphasize preventive care, the demand for pneumococcal vaccines is expected to rise, leading to the growth of the pneumococcal vaccines market during the study period.
The pneumococcal vaccine market is primarily being driven by government initiatives and health policies that promote widespread vaccination. Policies include incorporating pneumococcal vaccines into routine immunization schedules and recommending them for high-risk groups such as the elderly and young children. These actions are leading to a significant increase in vaccine uptake. Additionally, funding programs and public health campaigns are aimed at raising awareness and accessibility, further boosting vaccine adoption. These initiatives not only enhance public health but also stimulate market growth by ensuring broader coverage and consistent demand. As governments continue to prioritize vaccination for disease prevention, the pneumococcal vaccine market is expected to experience substantial growth.
The pneumococcal vaccine market faces many challenges due to stringent regulations to develop new vaccines such as lengthy approval processes. These regulations are important for the safety and effectiveness of vaccines. This often leads to time-consuming especially on new vaccine development discouraging potential investors that may hinder the demand for the pneumococcal vaccine market in coming years.
The market is segmented based on vaccine type, product type, end user, and region.
The Pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine segment accounted for the largest market share in 2023
The pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPV) segment held the largest revenue share in the pneumococcal vaccine market. This dominance is largely due to its broad coverage of multiple pneumococcal strains and its established use in preventing serious infections among adults, particularly those with underlying health conditions. The polysaccharide vaccine's proven efficacy in reducing severe disease outcomes leading to the increase in consumption by the majority of the population share.
The Pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) segment is projected to grow at a CAGR during the projected period in the pneumococcal vaccine market. The pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) offers better in improving the immunity and retaining immunity compared to PPV. Furthermore, the advanced developed pneumococcal conjugate vaccines cover more range of streptococcus pneumoniae driving the segment’s growth.
The Synflorix segment is expected to witness the highest growth during the forecast period.
Synflorix segment is projected to grow at a CAGR during the projected period in the pneumococcal vaccine market, mainly due to its cost-effectiveness, Synflorix is particularly favored in countries with budget constraints, boosting its market penetration. This rising demand in developing regions contributes significantly to its rapid growth rate compared to other pneumococcal vaccines.
The Prevnar 13 segment garnered the fastest CAGR in the pneumococcal vaccine market. The fastest share is driven by factors such as being widely available globally. Prevnar 13 caters wider range of age demands as it gets government approval for all types of ages like adults, infants, and children due to its efficient profile.
The North American region registered the largest share of the global market in 2023
The North American region held the dominant share in the pneumococcal vaccine market. The North American region has a strong healthcare infrastructure, widespread early adoption of vaccines, and a growing number of FDA approvals. The area benefits from a strong network of major pharmaceutical companies that drive innovation and market expansion. Additionally, the high level of healthcare access and awareness contributes to the increased uptake of pneumococcal vaccines, solidifying North America's leading position in the global market.
For instance, in June 2021, Pfizer Inc. announced that PREVNAR 20, a pneumococcal 20-valent conjugate vaccine approved by the U.S. FDA for the prevention of invasive pneumococcal disease and pneumonia for adults ages 18 years or older.
Asia Pacific region is projected to register the fastest growth over the study period in the pneumococcal vaccine market, this is due to increased investment in vaccine development, a rapidly expanding population, and a rising incidence of pneumococcal infections. Additionally, significant investments in biopharmaceutical research and development are further boosting market expansion in the region, leading to the fastest growth of pneumococcal vaccine market in the region during forecast period.
The pneumococcal vaccine market is fragmented. The growing investments in R&D for pneumococcal vaccines and new technology impacting the global market. Moreover, cost reduction in PCV and development of vaccines in middle-income countries drive the pneumococcal vaccine market growth during the forecast period. For instance, in September 2022, Indonesia launched the pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) nationwide aiming to access PCV all over Indonesia at the lowest price for children.
