Press Release: Urinary Tract Infection Treatment Market to Reach US$ 11,827.8 Million by 2027
The complete version of the Report will include the impact of the COVID-19, and anticipated change on the future outlook of the industry, by taking into the account the political, economic, social, and technological parameters.
Urinary tract infection is the infection of bladder, urethra, ureter and kidneys and occurs due to colonization of microbial pathogen in the bladder or kidneys. There are two types of urinary tract infections: complicated urinary tract infection and uncomplicated urinary tract infection.
The global urinary tract infection treatment market is estimated to account for US$ 10,170.8 Mn in terms of value and is expected to reach US$ 11,827.8 Mn by the end of 2027.
Global Urinary Tract Infection Treatment Market: Drivers
High prevalence of urinary tract infection is expected to propel growth of the global urinary tract infection market over the forecast period. For instance, according to the study “Prevalence of Bacterial Urinary Tract Infections and Associated Factors among Patients Attending Hospitals in Bushenyi District, Uganda”, published in February 2019, the prevalence of UTI was 32.2% among the study.
Moreover, R&D of novel class of antibiotics for urinary tract infections is also expected to aid in growth of the market. For instance, in August 2020, researchers at the California Polytechnic State University reported development of a new class of antibiotics for urinary tract infections, which targets bacterial iron acquisition, at the American Chemical Society (ACS) Fall 2020 Virtual Meeting & Expo.
Statistics:
Quinolones held dominant position in the global urinary tract infection treatment market in 2019, accounting for 37.7% share in terms of value, followed by Cephalosporin and Penicillin & Combinations, respectively.

Global Urinary Tract Infection Treatment Market: Restraints
Complex regulatory requirements are expected to hinder growth of the global urinary tract infection treatment market. The clinical trial of an antibiotic differs from other therapeutic drugs with respect to the clinical approval approach such as clinical trial design, interpretation and analysis. The sponsor has to conduct non-inferiority trials to get the approval with along with currently registered antibacterial drugs. The clinical trials for designing antibacterial drugs is complex and require an informative, ethical and scientific approach. These factors are expected to negatively impact market growth over the forecast period.
Moreover, low investment in research & development is also expected to limit the market growth. Many companies have stopped or decreased R&D activities in developing antibiotics as it has poor return on investment. This is attributed to the duration of treatment being short and these drugs cure the disease most of the time. Only a few companies such as GlaxoSmithKline, Pfizer, Cipla are investing in antibacterial discovery programs. Low investment on R&D for new drugs is expected to hamper growth of the market over the forecast period as most bacteria are becoming resistant to currently available antibiotics.

Global Urinary Tract Infection Treatment Market: Opportunities
R&D of in urinary tract infections is expected to offer lucrative growth opportunities for players in the global urinary tract infection treatment market. For instance, in May 2020, researchers from Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, The Netherlands, reported that in an intention-to-diagnose high-risk pediatric population, urinary tract infections could be discriminated from non- urinary tract infection by volatile organic compounds profiling, using an electronic nose.
Moreover, high prevalence of urinary tract infections in emerging economies is also expected to aid in growth of the market. For instance, the study, ‘Prevalence of urinary tract infections and current scenario of antibiotic susceptibility pattern of bacteria causing UTI’ conducted at the Microbiology department of a tertiary health care hospital in Mumbai and published in 2018, the overall prevalence of UTI was 33.54% of which 66.78% were females and 33.22% were from males.
The global urinary tract infection treatment market was valued at US$ 9,971.9 Mn in 2019 and is forecast to reach a value of US$ 11,827.8 Mn by 2027 at a CAGR of 2.2% between 2020 and 2027.

Global Urinary Tract Infection Treatment Market: Key Developments
Major players in the global urinary tract infection treatment market are focused on R&D of new therapies in order to expand their product portfolio. For instance, in May 2020, Spero Therapeutics, Inc. announced the completion of patient enrollment in its Phase 3 clinical trial, ADAPT-PO, of tebipenem HBr for the treatment of complicated urinary tract infection (cUTI) and acute pyelonephritis (AP).
Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) is caused when bacteria enters the urethra and infects the urinary bladder, causing severe health issues. UTI infections are common health problems in females than in males with biologic factors accounting as the major cause. Antibiotics are usually the first line of treatment prescribed by doctors for urinary tract infections.
