Abstract
The challenge of antimicrobial resistance is broadly appreciated by the clinical and scientific communities. To assess progress in the development of medical countermeasures to combat bacterial infections, we deployed information gleaned from clinical trials conducted from 2000 to 2021. Whereas private sector interest in cancer grew dramatically over this period, activity to combat bacterial infections remained stagnant. The comparative ambivalence to antimicrobial resistance is reflected in the number of investigative drugs under clinical investigation, their stage of development and most troublingly, a declining number of organizations that are actively involved in the development of new products to treat bacterial infections. This drop reflects the exits of many companies that had previously developed antibacterial agents.
期刊介绍：
Pharmaceutical Research, an official journal of the American Association of Pharmaceutical Scientists, is committed to publishing novel research that is mechanism-based, hypothesis-driven and addresses significant issues in drug discovery, development and regulation. Current areas of interest include, but are not limited to:
-(pre)formulation engineering and processing-
computational biopharmaceutics-
drug delivery and targeting-
molecular biopharmaceutics and drug disposition (including cellular and molecular pharmacology)-
pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and pharmacogenetics.
Research may involve nonclinical and clinical studies, and utilize both in vitro and in vivo approaches. Studies on small drug molecules, pharmaceutical solid materials (including biomaterials, polymers and nanoparticles) biotechnology products (including genes, peptides, proteins and vaccines), and genetically engineered cells are welcome.
