Considering the above-mentioned factors and new developments, the revenue growth of Advanced cancer pain treatment market is projected to be worth USD 11,540 million by end of the forecast period, while exhibiting a CAGR of 4.74%.
Availability of effective therapies and increasing healthcare expenditure driving market growth
The growth of the global advanced cancer pain treatment market is primarily driven by rising prevalence of cancer; growth in geriatric population, increasing healthcare expenditure and mounting investments in research and development activities by various healthcare companies. For example, according to American Cancer Society, nearly 1.80 million new cancer cases were diagnosed and about 606,525 cancer deaths were observed in the United States, in 2020. Also, according to the International Agency for Research on Cancer, approximately 1,065,960 new cases were reported for colorectal cancer worldwide in 2020. This rising trend in cancer cases will create market space for the expansion of cancer pain management market during the forecast period.
The geriatric population is more susceptible to various types of cancers, such as lung cancer, renal cancer, bladder cancer, melanoma, and others, owing to aging effect and mutation in the gene. According to the National Cancer Institute, the average age for diagnosis is 60 years for breast cancer, 67 years for colorectal cancer, 70 years for lung cancer, and 66 years for prostate cancer. Moreover, according to the Medicare and Medicaid Services, the National Health Expenditure reached $3.80 trillion in 2019. The National health expenditure increased by 4.6% in 2019, and accounted for approximately 17.7% of the United States GDP. Increase in demand for monoclonal antibodies for the treatment of cancer induced pain is also expected to boost growth of the advanced cancer pain market.
Also, availability of effective therapies and growing focus on relieving advanced cancer pain are leading to advancements in understanding the etiology and pathophysiology of cancer pain that is benefiting the market. Furthermore, surging investments and efforts to develop comprehensive approach to classify cancer pain due to growing emphasis on proper management and treatment of advanced cancer pain are also anticipated to drive market growth during the forecast period.
Adverse effects to restrain market growth
Side-effects associated with the use of drugs employed in cancer pain treatment such as drug tolerance, dependence on drugs, urinary retention, sleep disorders, cognitive impairment, and others are anticipated to hamper the cancer pain market growth over the forecast period.
Also, dearth of awareness among clinicians in effective management of cancer pain, absence of opioids in developing countries, and dearth of established healthcare infrastructure in low- and middle-income countries are some key factors anticipated to restrain market growth during the forecast period.
North America dominates the market with maximum share
North America is expected to dominate the market of Advanced cancer pain treatment by accounting for 42.9% market share by end of the forecast period. This region is anticipated to retain its dominance during the forecast period, due to growing prevalence of cancer, technological advancements in healthcare, easy access and availability of pain therapeutics, and availability of better-quality chemotherapy treatment options.
The growth in this region is also attributed to favorable healthcare infrastructure, which encourages easy access to advanced pain management devices. Furthermore, rising government initiatives, like Precision Medicine and Affordable Care Act, along with a well-planned reimbursement policy in this region is supporting market growth. The regional market is also propelled by the presence of robust healthcare facilities, surging aging population, and rising incidences of hypertension and stroke. With the increase in elderly population, the market is anticipated to show a higher growth rate, as the elder population is at greater risk of severe illness. Thus, leading to market growth in the region.
Asia Pacific driving growth with fastest CAGR
The market in Asia Pacific is projected to exhibit fastest CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period. The growth is attributable to increasing incidence of cancer, rapid advancements in cancer research, development of strong therapeutic pipeline, easy availability of advanced cancer drugs, and growing focus on palliative and end-of-life care.
This growth can also be attributed to research and developments investments in producing technologically advanced healthcare therapeutic options. Furthermore, the presence of numerous trade agreements is also leading to market growth in the region. For example, the Asia Pacific Trade Agreement between China, India, Bangladesh, Lao PDR, Republic of Korea, Mongolia, and Sri Lanka has encouraged trade liberalization and increased import and export opportunities amongst participating nations. This will lead to market growth in this region.
In addition, strengthening of healthcare infrastructure, growing per capita income, increasing geriatric population, and increasing prevalence of advance chronic pain in the region is leading to market growth. According to the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs report on world population aging, the number of elderly people in Asia is anticipated to increase by two-fold, from 394 million in 2019 to 588 million by 2030. Elderly people are at a greater risk of chronic pain conditions, like arthritis, neuropathic disorders, and back pain, which, in turn, drives the demand for drugs and devices for the treatment of chronic pain including cancer pain.
