Availability of various treatment methods would serve as a growth factor
According to research studies conducted by the American Cancer Society, patients suffering from squamous cell cancer of the penis, the most common penile malignancy, behave similarly to squamous cell cancer of other parts of the body.
Surgery is the most commonly used method of treating penile cancer. If cancer has spread to the bones, radiation therapy may be prescribed instead of surgery. In terms of therapy type segmentation, the radiation therapy segment is expected to generate the most revenue.
Chemotherapy is used to treat larger tumors or cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. MRI is the best way to get a clear picture of penile cancerous cells. At the initial stage of penile cancer diagnosis, an MRI is usually followed by a CT scan. PET is a relatively new technique used to assess the biological activity of tumors.
All these treatment methods are likely to propel market growth.
Growing population and improved healthcare infrastructure would lead to a promising future in Asia Pacific and North American region
Due to an increasing population suffering from human immunodeficiency virus in countries such as India, Asia-Pacific is expected to be the dominant region in the global penile cancer market in the future. North America is expected to offer lucrative growth opportunities for the overall penile cancer treatment market because of the increasing prevalence of penile cancer patients in countries such as the United States and Canada, as well as the availability of cost-effective drugs in these countries.
The presence of developed healthcare infrastructure facilities in these countries may also contribute to the growth of the North American penile cancer treatment market.
