The vowst market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The vowst market has experienced a size of XX (HCAGR) in the past few years. Its growth is projected to increase from $XX million in 2024 to $XX million in 2025, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of XX%.
The expansion during the historic period can be linked to several factors, such as the higher occurrence of C. diff infections, increased usage of antibiotics, escalated healthcare spending, increase in elderly population, as well as the heightened understanding of microbiome health.
The vowst market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• In the following years, the market size of vowst is projected to witness a forecasted compound annual growth rate (FCAGR) of XX%.
By 2029, the industry is expected to flourish to a value of $XX million, exhibiting a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of XX%.
The surge during this predicted period can be traced back to factors such as the rising incidence of Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD), enhanced approval of diagnostic measures, sustained use of antibiotics, heightened awareness regarding gut health, and the escalating occurrence of chronic conditions. There are several key trends to look out for in the forecast period which include the growing popularity of microbiota-involved treatments, increased incorporation of probiotics and prebiotics, shift towards personalized healthcare, integration of AI in research endeavors, and the shift towards home healthcare alternatives.
The surge in clostridioides difficile infections is predicted to fuel the expansion of the vowst market in the future. Illnesses created by the bacterium Clostridioides difficile are known as clostridioides difficile infections (CDIs), commonly resulting in colon inflammation that gives rise to symptoms like severe diarrhea, abdominal discomfort, and fever. Factors such as extensive use of antibiotics that disrupt the gut microbiota, the growing occurrence of infections linked with healthcare, ageing populations with compromised immune systems, and hypervirulent C. difficile strains contribute to CDI. Vowst can aid in combating clostridioides difficile infections (CDI) by re-establishing the gut's natural bacterial balance, often unsettled by antibiotics. For instance, the U.S.'s Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported in June 2024 that the raw general incidence rate of CDI in 2022 was 116.1 cases per 100,000 persons. This comprised a greater occurrence of community-associated cases at 62.1 cases per 100,000, relative to healthcare-associated circumstances at 54.0 cases per 100,000. Hence, the escalating occurrence of clostridioides difficile infections is stimulating the expansion of the vowst market.

In the Vowst market, a prominent trend is the focus on pioneering new products like antibacterial treatments aimed at recurrent clostridioides difficile infection (rCDI). These innovations are needed to meet the increasing demand for effective treatments, enhance patient recovery, and decrease infection relapse rates. Antibacterial treatments for recurrent Clostridioides difficile infection are specific therapies designed to wipe out C. difficile bacteria in patients who endure recurring infection episodes. For example, Seres Therapeutics Inc., a biotechnology firm based in the US, along with Nestlé Health Science, a pharmaceutical company from Switzerland, achieved FDA approval for Vowst (fecal microbiota spores, live-brpk) in April 2023. This orally administered, microbiota-based therapeutic is designed to tackle repeat cases of C. difficile infection (CDI) in adults following antibacterial treatment for rCDI. Its purpose is to reestablish a healthy gut microbiome, subsequently minimizing the chances of a relapse after initial therapy.
