Smallpox Treatment Market

Smallpox is an acute contagious disease caused by the variola virus, a member of the orthopoxvirus family. There is no cure for smallpox, but vaccination can be used effectively to prevent infection from developing if given during a period of up to four days after a person has been exposed to the virus. There is no known specific treatment for smallpox, although research is being carried out in an attempt to create a medication capable of killing the virus.

Market Dynamics:

A rise in the burden of smallpox, growing demand for safe and effective treatment, a rise in focus on the development of safe and effective vaccines, and favorable government initiatives are major factors expected to propel the growth of the global smallpox treatment market.

For instance, in June 2021, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved brincidofovir (BCV, Tembexa,) which is manufactured by Chimerix Inc., a U.S.-based biopharmaceutical company, to treat smallpox. The FDA approved Tembexa under the agency’s Animal Rule, which allows findings from adequate and well-controlled animal efficacy studies to serve as the basis of approval when it is not feasible or ethical to conduct efficacy trials in humans.
