According to the American Lung Association, adults get an average of 2-4 colds annually, mostly between September and May and children may suffer from an average of 6-8 colds each year. The treatment for the common cold includes over-the-counter medications to reduce the symptoms. Antibiotics are administered to fight infections caused by bacteria. Several clinical trials are underway to develop innovative common cold therapeutics to improve and manage the condition. For instance, CM5321 is a potential treatment for the common cold and will be administered as a nasal spray.

Report Coverage

The Common Cold Pipeline Report by the publisher gives comprehensive insights into common cold drugs currently undergoing clinical trials. It covers various aspects related to the details of each of these drugs under development for the common cold. The common cold pipeline insight includes the analysis of over 100 pipeline drugs and 50+ companies. It will include an analysis based on efficacy and safety measure outcomes published for the trials including their adverse effects on patients suffering from common cold.

The detailed analysis of each drug, drug class, clinical studies, phase type, drug type, route of administration and ongoing common cold development activities are covered in the report.

Common Cold Drug Pipeline Outlook

Cold is a contagious upper respiratory infection which affects body areas like the throat, nose, sinuses, and trachea. There are several types of viruses which can cause a cold and the most common cold virus is the rhinovirus which causes up to 50% of common colds. The symptoms of the common cold appear in stages. Stage 1, called early stage, has symptoms like sneezing, cough, stuffy nose, and nasal congestion, among others. Stage 2 is called an active stage. It has symptoms like body aches, headache, fatigue along with runny eyes and nose among others. Stage 3 is called late stage, and some symptoms can persist.

There is no cure for a cold as most colds go away on their own in ten days. Since viruses cause colds, antibiotics do not work for colds. Common cold therapeutics includes over-the-counter medications to reduce symptoms, including, pain relievers such as acetaminophen and NSAIDs such as ibuprofen to relieve headaches and fever. Decongestants are also given such as pseudoephedrine, and antihistamines among others. Additionally, cough suppressants are also administered such as dextromethorphan and codeine to reduce coughing. Several pharma companies and research institutes are developing innovative common cold emerging drugs to manage the condition. For instance, G.ST Antivirals GmbH is currently conducting a phase II study for 2-DG-02 for the prevention of rhinovirus-associated illness. The increasing clinical trials and changing dynamics are impacting the clinical trial landscape significantly.
