According to the latest report by Fairfield Market Research, the market is poised to achieve a staggering CAGR of 16% over the next decade, reaching an estimated US$ 13 billion by the end of 2031.
Sales Analysis and Market Outlook
Fairfield Market Research reveals that the Shingles vaccine segment exhibited the highest revenue share during the forecasted period. The recombinant vaccine, within the vaccine type segment, dominated with an impressive growth rate CAGR over the forecasted period.
The National Center for Biotechnology Information emphasizes the pivotal role of Shingles vaccines in preventing the prevalence of herpes zoster, with an estimated 278 million cases expected globally in the coming decade in the absence of effective vaccination. The urgency for vaccine development is heightened, especially for immunocompromised patients, as existing antiviral treatments are not entirely effective for postherpetic neuralgia (PHN).
Shingles among Older Adults Driving Market Demand
Older adults, particularly those aged 60 and above, face an increased susceptibility to shingles due to weakened immune systems. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that half of all shingles cases worldwide occur in this age group, emphasizing the need for a safe and cost-effective herpes zoster vaccine. Shingles, while not deadly, can lead to health complications such as pneumonia and encephalitis, making a vaccine crucial for this demographic.
Shingles Market Dynamics in Underdeveloped Countries
The prevalence of shingles varies based on geographical regions and prevailing climatic conditions. Shingles caused by the Varicella Zoster virus is common in tropical and subtropical regions. Underdeveloped countries, particularly in tropical Asia, lack routine varicella vaccination, presenting an opportunity for the shingles vaccine market. Integrating shingles vaccination programs into the WHO Regional Strategic Plan for Immunization in underdeveloped regions could significantly reduce disease burdens and associated complications.
Challenges and Impact of COVID-19 on Shingles Vaccine Market
Despite the positive outlook, challenges persist in developing effective shingles vaccines. The vaccine is typically administered before exposure to the Varicella Zoster virus, requiring strategic planning for efficacy. The latent reactivation of the virus in individuals with pre-existing immunity poses a challenge, necessitating the development of therapeutic vaccines for prompt immune response.
The COVID-19 pandemic had mixed effects on the Shingles vaccine market. Supply tensions and export bans initially disrupted vaccine rollouts, affecting sales. GlaxoSmithKline reported a significant drop in sales in the first quarter of 2021, attributed to disruptions caused by COVID-19 vaccine rollouts. However, the market rebounded in 2022, with GlaxoSmithKline's Shingles vaccine witnessing high revenue, reflecting a strong demand that outpaced supply after the pandemic.
Regional Growth and Market Analysis
Europe is emerging as a key growth region for the Shingles vaccine market, with the U.K. leading the way. The U.K. approved the shingles vaccine in its immunization program, achieving a vaccination rate of approximately 60%. Initiatives by key vaccine companies, such as GlaxoSmithKline plc., are contributing to the market's momentum. The expected growth rate in the European shingles market is estimated at 17% from 2024 to 2031, with an absolute dollar opportunity growth by 2032.
