Live attenuated vaccines are a type of vaccine composed of weakened forms of pathogens, typically viruses or bacteria, which are capable of replicating within the body but are attenuated or weakened to a degree that they cause minimal or no disease symptoms. These vaccines stimulate a robust immune response by mimicking natural infections, leading to the production of memory cells that provide long-lasting immunity against the targeted pathogen.

Live Attenuated Vaccines Market Trends

• Governments, healthcare organizations, and individuals are increasingly recognizing the importance of vaccination including influenza vaccines in preventing infectious diseases and promoting public health. For instance, in February 2020, governments led the initiatives, with funding from Gavi, and support from partners like the Vaccine Alliance and the Measles & Rubella Initiative (M&RI), which comprises organizations such as WHO and UNICEF.
• These efforts aimed to focus on children under five years old particularly susceptible to measles and disease. The campaign aimed to immunize approximately 45 million children across seven developing nations in the six months. Thus, by implementing these comprehensive vaccination campaigns, the market is expected to show significant opportunities.

Based on the development, the live attenuated vaccines market is classified into tissue culture, embryonated eggs, and live animals. The tissue culture segment held the largest market share of 42.6% in 2023.

• Tissue culture dominance was attributed to its advantages such as scalability, reduced risk of contamination, and improved consistency in vaccine production. The methods involve growing viruses in cell cultures, ensuring controlled conditions and higher yields.
• This approach addresses concerns as compared to safety and ethical considerations associated with embryonated eggs and live animals. As a result, pharmaceutical companies increasingly favor tissue culture methods, thereby driving its dominance in the market.

Based on the mode of administration, the live attenuated vaccines market is classified into oral, injectable, and intranasal. The injectable segment held the largest market share in 2023 and is expected to reach USD 20 billion by 2032.

• Injectable vaccines offer advantages in terms of ease of administration, precise dosage control, and broader applicability across age groups. They are particularly favored for mass vaccination campaigns and routine immunization programs, ensuring efficient delivery of live attenuated vaccines to the population.

Based on the age group, the live attenuated vaccines market is classified into pediatrics and adults. The pediatrics segment held the largest market share projecting its dominance throughout the forecast period.

• Pediatrics are highly susceptible to infectious diseases and are often prioritized for vaccination to prevent severe infections, complications, and transmission within communities. For instance, according to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), in the U.S., nearly all children contract respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) by age five, with approximately 58,000 requiring hospitalizations annually.
• This urgency has prompted the development of an effective vaccine for RSV. Therefore, public health initiatives and school vaccination requirements ensure high vaccination coverage among children, thereby shaping market dynamics and vaccination strategies worldwide.

Based on the indication, the live attenuated vaccines market is classified into tuberculosis, measles, rotavirus, yellow fever, oral polio, influenza, and other indications. The measles segment is poised to dominate the global market, with an anticipated growth of 10.4% during the analysis period.

• Increasing emphasis on measles vaccination programs worldwide, driven by efforts to achieve higher immunization coverage and limit the spread of the disease will spur the market growth. Also, factors such as rising awareness and international partnerships aimed at eliminating measles contribute to the robust growth projections for this segment.

Based on the end-use

the live attenuated vaccines market is categorized into hospitals, specialty clinics, and other end-users. The hospitals segment accounted for 49.1% market share in 2023 and is expected to reach USD 17.6 billion by 2032. The hospital segment is further classified into public and private sectors.

• Hospitals are centers for immunization programs, providing vaccines to both inpatients and outpatients. Equipped with the required infrastructure, skilled healthcare staff, and proper storage facilities, hospitals ensure safe vaccine administration.
• Additionally, public hospitals often play a pivotal role in vaccine distribution, especially in regions with government-funded healthcare systems or extensive vaccination programs. They receive vaccines through national immunization programs or governmental initiatives, ensuring widespread availability to the population.
