Methicillin-Resistant Staphyloccocus Aureus Infections (MRSA) | Current Treatment | Physician Insights | US | 2017

The relatively recent FDA approvals of tedizolid (Merck’s Sivextro), dalbavancin (Allergan’s Dalvance), and oritavancin (The Medicines Company’s Orbactiv) for the treatment of acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSIs) highlight the competitive nature of the hospital-treated MRSA market. Further, with the recent generic availability of the key anti-MRSA agents linezolid (Pfizer’s Zyvox) and daptomycin (Merck’s Cubicin), new and older brands will need to offer improvements in key areas of differentiation to gain uptake in this crowded market. This report analyzes the current and anticipated MRSA inpatient treatment landscape, providing critical information for manufacturers to position their products based on differentiating attributes that differentiate them from the competition to maximize uptake in the high-value hospital market segment.
