Cancer Pain Market Share and Trends
The global cancer pain market size was valued at $6,197.8 million in 2020, and is estimated to reach $10,329.4 million by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 5.3% from 2021 to 2030. Cancer pain can be due to the disease condition itself or may be due to the associated surgery, chemotherapy, and others. There are various drugs used for the management of cancer pain. The drugs used for the treatment of cancer pain depend on the severity of pain for instance strong opioids are used preferably in case of severe pain whereas non-opioids such as acetaminophen and NSAIDs are preferred to treat mild to moderate cancer pain.
Growth of the global cancer pain market is majorly driven by increase in prevalence of cancer; rise in geriatric population; increase in healthcare expenditure; and increase in investments in R&D activities by various healthcare companies. For instance, according to American Cancer Society, nearly 1.8 million new cancer cases were diagnosed and about 606,520 cancer deaths were observed in the U.S. in 2020. According to the International Agency for Research on Cancer, in 2020, approximately 1,065,960 new cases were reported for colorectal cancer worldwide. The geriatric population is more vulnerable to various types of cancers, such as lung cancer, bladder cancer, renal cancer, melanoma, and others, due to aging effect and mutation in the gene. According to the National Cancer Institute, the median age for diagnosis is 61 years for breast cancer, 68 years for colorectal cancer, 70 years for lung cancer, and 66 years for prostate cancer. Furthermore, according to the Medicare and Medicaid Services, the National Health Expenditure (NHE) reached $3.8 trillion in 2019. The NHE increased by 4.6% in 2019, and accounted for 17.7% of the U.S. GDP. Surge in demand for monoclonal antibodies for the treatment of cancer boosts the growth of the cancer pain market.
However, adverse effect associated associated with the use of drugs employed in cancer pain management such as drug tolerance, drug dependence, urinary retention, sleep disorders, cognitive impairment, and others are expected to restrict the cancer pain market growth during the forecast period.
Cancer Pain Market Segmentation
The cancer pain market is segmented on the basis of drug type, disease indication, and region. By drug type, the market is categorized into opioids, non-opioids, and nerve blockers.
