Cytotoxic Drugs Market Analysis
The global cytotoxic drugs market size is expected to register a CAGR of 1.2% over the forecast period. The availability of novel drugs, presence of strong pipeline, and supportive government legislation for disease awareness are among the key trends in escalating market growth. Besides this, the growing incidence of cancer, coupled with increasing geriatric population and unorganized lifestyle, is estimated to provide a fillip to the market. As per the World Health Organization, cancer is the second-leading cause of death globally and is responsible for an estimated 9.6 million deaths in 2018. Globally, about one in six deaths are due to cancer. Treatment of cancer majorly includes chemotherapy that involves the use of cytotoxic drugs to inhibit cell division. The increasing number of chemotherapy procedures being performed due to rising cases of cancer is expected to increase the demand for cytotoxic drugs, which may drive the market studied.
The future of the cytotoxic drugs market has a high probability of gaining an array of novel therapies, with multiple first-in-class developments in each major target family, broadening the scope of potential benefits for patients. The R&D spending from companies, like Johnson & Johnson Services Inc., Eli Lilly and Company, Pfizer Inc., Mylan NV, has increased exponentially.
The wide range of pipeline drugs possessing high probability of approval in clinical trials in the future is predicted to provide lucrative growth opportunities to cytotoxic drugs market. For instance, AstraZeneca collaborated with Parexel for the development of novel drug with combination of cytotoxic chemotherapy and AZD7648 so as to treat advanced malignancies. Thus, it is anticipated to drive the growth of the market studied.
However, complications associated with cytotoxic drugs and high cost of these drugs may lead to a steep decrease for the market studied.
