Human Microbiome

With the increasing concept of precision medicine, several scientists have demonstrated interest in the therapeutic manipulation of human microbiome (commonly gut bacteria) for the treatment of a wide range of disease indications

Roots Analysis has announced the addition of “The Human Microbiome Market, (4th Edition) 2022-2035” report to its list of offerings.  

The microbiome-based therapies pipeline features six drugs in phase III clinical development, over 200 candidates in other clinical and preclinical stages of development along with more than 60 diagnostics and screening / profiling tests that are commercialized for the detection of various diseases. However, the current microbiome market is driven by the fecal microbiota therapies approved by the FDA, particularly for the recurrent CDI and the commercialized diagnostic tests available to the patients.
