Protein Synthesis Inhibitors Market: Competitive Landscape, Pipeline, and Market Analysis 2023
Protein synthesis is a core biological process that primarily includes transcription and translation, and results in structural changes in organisms. Changes to the primary structure of a protein can result in the protein misfolding or malfunctioning and often could be the cause of underlying diseases. Protein synthesis inhibitors inhibit bacterial protein synthesis by interfering with the 30s or 50s ribosomal subunit, thereby inhibiting the bacterial protein synthesis which include initiation, formation of the 70s and elongation process of making polypeptides. Protein synthesis inhibitors are indicated for gram-positive infections, impetigo, skin and soft tissue infections, bacterial infections, malaria, bacterial vaginosis, chronic myeloid leukemia, community-acquired pneumonia, tuberculosis, and others. Novartis AG, Bausch Health, Teva Pharmaceuticals, GSK, AstraZeneca, and Pfizer are some of the major players in the protein synthesis inhibitors market.

Protein synthesis inhibitors such as Clarithromycin, Erythromycin, and others are used in the treatment of acute otitis media caused by H. influenza, M. catarrhalis, or S. pneumonie in patients. Also, for the treatment of pharyngitis and tonsillitis caused by susceptible Streptococcus pyogenes, as well as respiratory tract infections including acute maxillary sinusitis, acute bacterial exacerbation of chronic bronchitis, helicobacter pylori infections, and others. Some of the other drug molecules are in the clinical phase trials for conditions like Crohn’s disease, mycobacterium avium complex infections, nontuberculous mycobacterium infections, multiple sclerosis, head and neck cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, solid tumors, and others.
