Staphylococcal aureus infections represent an enormous burden to public health systems. Traditionally restricted to the hospital setting as nosocomial infections, highly virulent strains have recently emerged in outside healthcare settings. Together with the increasing resistance to many antibacterials in a wide variety of staphylococcal strains, development of vaccines or specific and potent therapies for staphylococcal diseases raised increasing interest . Finding a vaccine for staphylococci is not trivial, as protective immunity to staphylococcal infections does not appear to exist at a significant degree. Promising results from novel approaches based on the combination of systematically selected antigens have been reported. Passive immunotherapy with monoclonal therapeutic antibodies against S.aureus is another means to approach specific therapy of staphylococcal. While antistaphylococcal purified polyclonal immunoglobulins are not recommended for prevention of staphylococcal infections in preterm or VLBW neonates, monoclonal antibodies are currently emerging and are in early development. Although not specific, bactericidal proteins and peptides with activity against S. aureus are in preclinical and clinical development. The report includes a compilation of currently active projects in research and development of, antibodies, proteins, peptides and vaccines for prevention and treatment of Staphylococcus aureus infections. In addition, the report lists company-specific R&D pipelines of biologic and immune therapeutics of S. aureus infections. Competitor projects are listed in a tabular format providing information on:
