Penile cancer is a rare form of cancer-specific to the male reproductive organ penis. It is a malignant growth found in the tissues of the penis. It is generally caused by body fluid that gets entangled into the skin. If these body fluids are not wiped away regularly, they may cause cancer. The most common viruses that cause penile cancer are acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) and human papillomavirus (HPV). Moreover, other factors include smoking, poor hygiene, and other skin diseases. Penile cancer is more likely to affect smokers and older men. Bleeding, lumps, redness, and sores are some of the signs and symptoms of penile cancer. Initially, physical examination of the penis is done to diagnose penile cancer and followed the biopsy of the outgrowth (warts/papules or skin abscess). The common mode of treatment for penile cancer is chemotherapy, antiviral therapy, and surgical excision. Surgical methods are classified on the type of procedure appropriate for removing the tumor; microsurgery, circumcision, excision, or penectomy (castration) are the generally followed procedures.
COVID-19 Impact Analysis
COVID-19 is an infectious disease that originated in Hubei province of the Wuhan city in China in late December. The highly contagious disease, caused by a virus, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), is transmitted from human to human. Since the outbreak in December 2019, the disease has spread to almost 213 countries around the globe with the World Health Organization declaring it a public health emergency on March 11, 2020.
Pharmaceutical and biotech companies together with governments around the globe are working to address the COVID-19 outbreak, from supporting the development of vaccines to planning for medicine supply chain challenges. Currently, around 115 vaccine candidates and 155 molecules are in the R&D pipeline. Moreover, commonly used drugs such as hydroxychloroquine have witnessed a dramatic surge in demand for the management of COVID-19. Such high demand for these drugs has presented huge opportunities for manufacturers of COVID-19 management drugs, as many developed countries are facing shortage of these drugs. Thus, the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries are expected witness a significant growth in the future owing to the demand for vaccine and treatment drugs for COVID-19. This in turn is expected to have a significant impact on the penile cancer treatment market.
