The global urinary tract cancer market was valued at $1,704.5 million in 2020, and is estimated to reach $8,786.2 million by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 18.6% from 2021 to 2030.
Urinary tract cancer is the most common type of cancer found in urethra, bladder, and renal pelvic. Cystoscopy is the gold standard procedure for the diagnosis of bladder cancer. The other technology such as computed tomography (CT) urography is used for obtaining images of the upper tract in macroscopic hematuria. The exact etiology of urinary tract cancer is unknown, but prolonged indwelling bladder catheters, smoking, chronic inflammation in the urinary tract and exposure to carcinogenic chemicals, are the key factors which might develop urinary tract cancer.
Growth of the global urinary tract cancer market is majorly driven by an increase in prevalence of bladder cancer; rise in funding from private & government organizations for development of research centers; rise in growth of geriatric population; and increase in R&D activities in the healthcare sector. Bladder cancer is the 10th most common cancer, across the globe. For instance, according to American Cancer Society, in 2021, it was reported that around 83,730 population are diagnosed with bladder cancer, in the U.S. Moreover, the University investment and philanthropic donations funded $1.18 million to the bladder cancer research centers, which was launched in the University of Birmingham, in the UK. In addition, rise in geriatric population who are more vulnerable to bladder cancer fuels the market growth during the forecast period. The aging population are more prone to urinary tract cancer due to weakening of immune cells that fight against the cancer tissue in bladder. According to American society of clinical oncology (ASCO) organization, in January 2021, it was reported that around 90% of the people with bladder cancer are more than 55 year of age. Furthermore, according to American cancer society, 2019, it was observed that smoking along with workplace exposure can act together to cause bladder cancer. For instance, in August 2021, Merck, one of the leading global biopharmaceutical company, announced the U.S. Food and Drug Administrative approval for Keytruda (pembrolizumab), which is used for the treatment of Urothelial Carcinoma. Thus, the increasing number of approval for treatment of urinary tract cancer, and surge in sedentary life style such as smoking and rise in exposure to chemical industry propel the growth of the market. Moreover, the presence of highly specialist urologist for the treatment of cancer, and increase in number of cancer research centers.
However, risk associated with the use of drug prescribed for urinary tract cancer such as irritation in bladder, blood in urine, and infection is expected to restrict the market growth during the forecast period.
