The report analyzes the global cancer supportive care products market in terms of market value (US$ Mn), by drug class, disease indication, region, and distribution channels, and provides information regarding regional market dynamics, regulations, PEST analysis, competitive landscape, current trends, market estimations, and forecast.
Among the drug class segments, erythropoietin stimulating agents, such as NeoRecormon, Procrit, and Arsanep, are expected to account for the largest share of the global cancer supportive care products market, followed by granulocyte colony-stimulating factors and others. The erythropoietin stimulating agents segment is expected to gain traction in the near future due to increasing number of patients suffering from chemotherapy-induced neutropenia (low count of neutrophils). Increasing demand for high-quality cancer supportive care products is also influencing manufacturers to opt for better quality active pharmaceutical ingredients and maintain a sterile microbial contamination-free manufacturing space.
By disease indication type, the cancer supportive care products market is segmented into various forms of cancers, such as lung cancer, breast cancer, prostate cancer, etc. Among these, the lung cancer segment is expected to dominate the overall market in future, i.e. by 2021, owing to greater incidences of tobacco smoking cases, rising pollution, and exposure to harmful chemicals and gases released from various industries. The segment is projected to expand at a substantial growth rate over the forecast period. However, breast cancer is also gaining traction due to changing lifestyle, the rise in adoption of hormone replacement therapy, and genetic inheritance of genes such as BRCA1 and BRCA2.
Key market participants covered in the report include Amgen Inc., Johnson & Johnson, Novartis Ag., Baxter International Inc, Fagron Group BV, Teva Pharmaceuticals Industries Ltd, Hoffmann LA- Roche Ltd, APR Applied Pharma Science Research S.A., Acacia Pharma Ltd, and Kyowa Hakko Kirin Co Ltd.
