Favorable Government Initiatives for Promoting Research Activities in the Field of Developing Novel Drugs for the Cure of Hepatitis B to Expand the Growth of the Market

The World Health Organization (WHO), in one of its statistics, stated that globally, the number of people infected with chronic hepatitis B virus is around 240 million. Further, around 20 million deaths cumulatively is estimated to occur between 2015 and 2030.

Owing to the increasing concern for the growing prevalence of chronic hepatitis B globally, governmental bodies, such as the United Nations and the WHO, are formulating strategies to eradicate the viral infection. For instance, the WHO has formulated a five-point strategic decision for preventing and controlling the viral hepatitis infections so as to meet the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, i.e., the third goal of the Sustainable Development Goals, formulated by the United Nations. These strategies encourage government of nations worldwide to promote research and development in the field of developing novel therapies and drugs for the prevention and treatment of viral infections, which is anticipated to drive the market growth. Moreover, growing support from the government of nations globally, by means of increasing research spending, further helps organizations in the pharmaceutical industry to increase their focus on the development of the drug that can cure the viral infection. Such factors are anticipated to drive the market growth during the forecast period.

However, concerns for the lack of proper healthcare infrastructure in several developing nations around the globe and the long-standing process for the approval of a novel drug are expected to operate as key restraint to the growth of global hepatitis B therapeutic drug market over the forecast period.
