Plasmodium parasites, a protozoan parasite, are the cause of the widespread infectious disease malaria. A parasite enters the body through the bite of an infected female Anopheles mosquito, which then travels to the liver, where the parasite is produced. Human malaria are generally caused by five types of plasmodium parasites, including P. falciparum, P. malariae, P. ovale, P. vivax, and P.knowlesi. The most dangerous parasite species among these are P. falciparum and P. vivax, which are also the ones responsible for the majority of malaria deaths. Antimalarial drugs are used for the treatment and prevention of malaria infection. Most antimalarial drugs target the erythrocytic stage of malaria infection, which is the phase of infection that causes symptomatic illness. Early diagnosis and efficient treatment are crucial measures to control malaria. Different types of drugs such as quinine, chloroquine, mefloquine, proguanil, primaquine, and others are used in the treatment of malaria. Moreover, some combination drugs such as Pyrimethamine & sulfadoxine, Artemether & lumefantrine, and others are also prescribed for treating the disease.

Market Dynamics

The ongoing research and development for malarial treatment is expected to fuel growth of the market in the forecast period. Various drugs are undergoing the clinical trial for the malarial treatment, which is also expected to drive the market during the forecast period. Moreover, various pharmaceutical companies are actively participating in research and development activities, in order to develop novel drug entity for treatment of malaria. For instance, in November 2022, Novartis AG, a multinational pharmaceutical corporation and Medicines for Malaria Venture (MMV), a product development partnership in the field of antimalarial drug research and development announced decision to move to Phase 3 study for novel non-artemisinin combination to treat uncomplicated malaria. This novel combination also contains an optimized formulation of lumefantrine, which allows it to be given once daily versus the usual twice-daily administration. As the world faces emerging resistance to current malaria treatments, new medicines are needed to continue the fight toward elimination.
