Dublin, Nov. 01, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Antiviral Drugs Market, By Drug Type, By Application, By Mechanism of Action, By Distribution Channel, and By Region Forecast to 2030" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global antiviral drugs market size is expected to reach USD 50.02 Billion in 2030 and register a revenue CAGR of 3.4% during the forecast period, according to latest report.

The antiviral drugs market is growing on account of the continued prevalence of viral diseases and infections globally. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), it is estimated that every year, 16% of the world population suffers from one or more viral diseases. Moreover, as per WHO data in 2016, an estimated 3.1 million people died from hepatitis C. Increasing research and development activities by major companies are projected to foster market growth in the coming years.

For instance, in October 2019, Gilead Sciences, Inc., a leading player in the antiviral drugs market, announced that it would be acquiring Forty Seven, Inc., a clinical-stage immuno-oncology company. The acquisition is aimed at expanding the company's oncology research and development portfolio.

Moreover, in September 2019, F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd., another major player in the market, announced that its investigational antiviral drug, baloxavir marboxil, reduced the risk of acute respiratory illness by 86% in people aged 12 years and older who had been exposed to influenza. Such initiatives are projected to create lucrative growth opportunities for market players in the coming years.

However, the high cost of antiviral drugs is expected to hamper market growth in the near future. According to a report by the World Health Organization (WHO), the cost of one year's treatment for hepatitis C can range from USD 300 to USD 1,000 in low- and middle-income countries. Moreover, the cost of new antiviral drugs for treating hepatitis C can be as high as USD 100,000 per patient in some cases. Such high costs are expected to limit market growth in the coming years.

Some Key Highlights in the Report

• By disease type, the market is bifurcated into hepatitis B, influenza, hepatitis C, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and others. The hepatitis B segment is projected to register the highest CAGR of 4.8% during the forecast period. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), in 2015, an estimated 257 million people were living with chronic hepatitis B worldwide. Moreover, according to WHO data, in 2016, an estimated 887,000 people died from hepatitis B, making it one of the leading causes of death globally.

NRTIs are a class of drugs that work by inhibiting reverse transcriptase, an enzyme responsible for replication of retroviruses such as HIV-1.

• By treatment type, the market is classified into combination therapy and single therapy. The combination therapy segment is expected to register the highest CAGR of 4.4% during the forecast period. The segment is growing on account of the efficacy of combination therapy in treating viral infections.
