Metastatic Breast Cancer Market

Metastatic Breast Cancer Market – Overview

Metastatic breast cancer is the advanced stage of breast cancer, including cases wherein cancer has spread to the other parts of the body from the breast. It is also known as stage IV breast cancer. Some of the most common organs which are affected by metastatic breast cancer include the lungs, bones, brain, and liver. Although this cancer has spread to other parts of the body, it is diagnosed as breast cancer only. Usually, metastatic breast cancer may be detected months or years after the advanced or early detection and treatment of breast cancer such as stages 1, 2, or 3.

Metastatic breast cancer is also known as distant recurrence. Globally increasing awareness and development of new therapies and drugs is expected to drive the demand for the metastatic cancer industry during the forecast period. Chemotherapy and radiation therapy are the most diagnosed therapies used to cure metastatic breast cancer. Both these therapies help in suppressing tumor growth. Besides this, hormone therapy is considered the most effective therapy as it helps to restrict the expansion of the cancer cell. Such therapies are projected to augment the market share, thereby boosting the growth of the metastatic breast cancer market during the forecast period.

Metastatic Breast Cancer Market – Drivers

Factors augmenting the growth of the metastatic breast cancer market include the rise in cases of HER2-positive breast cancer worldwide. This will ultimately increase the demand for novel drugs to treat metastatic breast cancer, which is already in the fourth stage. Moreover, favorable reimbursement policies in developed economies and the rising adoption of immunotherapy are further expected to bolster the growth of the metastatic breast cancer market at a global level during the forecast period.

On the contrary, the market may face major challenges from the high treatment costs for cancer especially as it is in the latter stages. This coupled with the halt of late-stage clinical trials and wait for FDA approvals for novel drugs to treat cancer may also cause major hindrance to the growth of this market in the coming years.

Nevertheless, the rising investments in research and development by various manufacturing companies and increasing awareness programs on cancer diagnostics are likely to help this market witness significant growth opportunities in the years to come.
